NO TAILGATING?

There are rotisserie heroes and fantasy goats. But some performances are so ugly, egregious or plain perplexing that it begs the refrain: What the F--k! Here is Update's seriously twisted moment this week.

POSTED 1-29-07

The NFL — that's short for No Fun League — struck again this week. It's one thing to penalize players thousands of dollars for not wearing the correct socks or for bringing a little zaniness to the game with a scripted end zone celebration. Employers everywhere have little tolerance for nonconformity. But to come down on fans by banning tailgating at the Super Bowl? That means no cooking, drinking alcoholic beverages or RVs within a one-mile radius of Dolphin Stadium on Feb. 4. WTF! Hey, UPDATE! knows the crowd this game attracts isn't likely to fire up the Hibachi and grill some brauts. The average nose-bleed seat is going for $3,500. Upper crust-only please. But you can't help but feel the League has stepped over some sacred boundary this week in Miami. Can anyone check the Bill of Rights to make sure tailgating isn't protected in the fine print? Talk about PR disaster. NFL commissioner Roger Goodell deserves a big WTF!
