Whatever you say, internet tough guy.Lighten up Francises...
Over here in Japan, there's saying. You can get used to looks of not attractive woman. You can get tired of pretty ones. What it means is that it is more important inside than pretty appearance.I should probably keep my keyboard silent, but I would like to go on a little mini rant here:
Why do guys think it is ok to trash a women based on her looks? I read the posts from males I have met in person who are not in the least bit attractive who feel the need to insult to looks of a woman in a picture. I usually laugh and shake my head, these guys say the wouldn't hit it, when the reality is they wouldn't stand a chance in hell of "hitting it."
If women were as shallow as men who do this crap, and only graded men on looks, not many males would make it to the alter.
Why would that jerk ask the question and why would Johnson answer it?

This is not a situation that calls for political correctness. It is a situation that calls for human decency.
That woman (as you refer to her) is from all accounts a wonderful person and wife.
Let me ask this question to all in this thread who are publicly willing to call her ugly (or nasty). Is there a female in your life who you care about that is ugly? Maybe a mother, a grandmother, a sister, a wife of a friend, a co worker? Would you call them ugly (or nasty) to their face? Then why do you think it is acceptable anywhere?
She isn't a Roseanne or a Rosie O'Donnell who put herself in the public eye and is therefore more subject to public opinion.
I personally have a ton of respect for the way Vince stood up for his wife and for the fact that he is in such a loving relationship with her.
This is the problem with "sports talk radio" devolving into some goofy type of "guy talk".
Who gives a flying flip about who's wife is ugly???! Why is this even a segment on a SPORTS talk show?
I know it's all under the umbrella of entertainment, but turning local sports radio into some sort of bastard stepchild of Howard Stern and Jim Rome is taking a turn for the worst.
I could not care less about what hair gel someone uses, what movies they like, what trip they took with their wives last weekend, blah blah blah.
I immediately change the channel when they start babbling that "guy talk" crap.

Well its go time for Francis. Considering his wife was called ugly and it went viral. I guess you can stand back and watch your wife, daughter, sister be called ugly and laugh about it. Way to go good buddy.
Huh? Who's trying to be tough? Man, some of you "guys" act like sensative little girls. I guess it's a sign of the times with this younger generation being pampered and politically brainwashed. Back in the 50's and 60's comedians would commonly joke about their ugly wives. Nowadays it spawns a lawsuit, tears and new legislation. Unbelievable how far we've fallen...
If my wife or daughter were as ugly as his wife i would have to laugh, what good does it do to get upset about it. If Wilfork has a problem they can work it out like men. It's really just good humor that's commonly shared amongst brothers like football players, soldiers, fraternity, whatever.
The sensitivity levels around here are outrageous.

In the 50/60's you would have gotten your ass beat for that, along with the fact when you got home your father/mother would have beat your ass even at 25.
It was called respect, which obviously people don't have they just sit behind a virtual environment and say what they want without much if any repercussion.

See the word in bold? - it's kind of key to why this is a different situation. Nice made up knowledge of a time period from before you were born.
Geez... it's like I accidentally posted on The View's message board. Now I remembered why i stayed away from here the last 5 years.
Let's not put wonger on a pedestal. There are plenty of dumb posts here.I vote this for dumbest post of the year.
Its all in fun, and its generally a ha, ha deal, Lopez said. Im not going to speak for Ted, but the lesson for me is that sometimes people take this thing literally. I can see how (Wilfork) would feel from afar.
Most people understand when youre being serious on the radio and when youre having fun, and sometimes that line gets blurred a little bit.
He said he and Wright plan to continue the segment.
It should be noted that the audio of the conversation between Wright, Lopez and Johnson was recorded and posted by Craig Sheltons Houston Media Watch website.
UPDATE: The website also posted audio from KILTs afternoon talk show, including Rich Lords comment, referring to Bianca Wilfork, The truth of the matter is this is not somebody you want to wake up next to. Did I go over the line? He added, Shes got a ways to before shes even Rikki Lake. Im trying to back up our boy here. He spoke the truth.
Sigh. Did Gavin Spittle, KILTs former program director, take the mute button with him when he moved to Dallas?
Steph's blog about talk radio was spot on. I think a email campaign to the Texans is in order, I really don't like them supporting this level of misogyny.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, personally I'm fine with the fact you haven't been here for 5+ years. From your posts it seems like we've been spared for a while now..
She's certainly a big girl, but Vince is a really big guy himself and they both probably like to chow down. But she's actually kinda cute, and they've got really good looking kids.She looks ok. I see women a lot more ugly than her every day.

I haven't listened to 610 since Josh Innis got there. That dude should be nominated for Biggest Douche in the Universe.
Well said. Just another example of bad talk radio.
Same here on satellite radio. I listen to some 790 on the commutes. Rome is no longer on in Houston, but has you suggested, he has "jumped the shark".
I like guy talk because there are plenty of times where there are not truly relevant sports issues and even when there the issue is getting beat to death. what I don't like is that much of "guy talk" has to be immature frat house or lockerroom type talk. More to life than chicks, getting drunk, and pulling silly pranks.
I actually like the segment . It's nice to hear some different "entertainment" every once and a while . Talking about the same topic all day everyday , especially with the offseason and little going on in sports. Only so many times you can re tread topics . Just IMHO ...
Rich Lord is just a dumbass...don't know how people enjoy listening to him in general in any case.

Doesn't matter to me besides Vince ain't exactly Denzel Washington .

If I could rep you all day I would. Not to mention that they wouldn't have the balls to say this to Wilfork's face. Its nice to be able to hide behind a keyboard.

Having said that, I do have young and beautiful girlfriend. I just like total beauty inside and outside.
He was just being honest, she's busted.

I don't think I ever remember you insulting the looks of a female. You are more inclined to drool. :kiss:
Translate for those of us that speak English, please
...Says the man married to the redheaded bombshell
"Take my wife...PLEASE!" :Henny Youngman
On the whole you might be right on this one, but commedian Robin Harris (may he rest in peace) used to do a routine in the 90s about how ugly his wife was. It's okay to joke about your OWN family, but damned if someone else does it.
Picture yourself getting into an accident and busting a limb wide open. The way your limb would look is what she looks like. Do you want me to go into further details?
If you dont know what a limb is go to dictionary.com
Being physically unattractive doesn't make someone ugly. Treating others like crap makes you ugly.

Too many people don't know the difference between humor and cruelty. If you don't like to be called little, white boy, the N word, or fat b****, then don't think it's OK to do the rest. If you don't care about somebody else's feelings, then you are the moron who deserves no respect....AND DONT' LAUGH when some moron is entertaining you. You'll deserve it when you're the next victim.
I wouldn't expect this guy to do anymore than apologize, which he already did, but he should know that his apology does not even come close to making up for the damage. I hope most people turned off the radio when this crap was airing.
I turned 610 off a few months ago, so I missed it.
