Ben Cousins finger (2 Viewers)

[Ligeti]

I don't mind if Cousins gets fined or not, that's up to the AFL, but I'm really shocked by the double standards of the media.

If Cousins behavior was so bad and such a bad influence for children, isn't it just as bad to be repeating the footage all day everyday, as well as printing a picture of the incident in every newspaper (some even have it on the cover)???

If Cousins gets fined for the bird then every TV Channel should get fined the same amount for everytime they repeat the footage.

So I got a word wrong in my second language... My english isn't perfect. But I'd never go into a thread and only write to give someone shit about a misspelled word.

I might be more illiterate. But I sure got a better education than you.

It was before the game anyway, its not like he was angry at someone or at the game. Its all out of proportion because of his name. Fucking stupid to exaggerate the 'damage' it has caused.

 

[Boxes]

why'd he do it anyway?

 

[bayside9]

From his statement basically: Just having a bit of fun and saying hello to the poor bugger in the camera van outside, he did it heaps of other times too but its only been shown now.

Pretty funny when i read it actually, seems really, really harmless.

Doesn't cousins play AFL, and i personally believe they shouldn't have camera's in the dressing room, what if someone drops their dacks? thats what the room is their for, getting changed!

Fuck Political Correctness and all that stupid shit. He was flipping the bird to a mate of his worked in production and everybody knows the bird is the word.

Fuck the media.
