From a Slashdot article...

"Just after the last touchdown by the Cardinals, with 3 minutes to go in the game, approximately 30 seconds of pornographic material was shown, seen by an unknown number of Comcast customers in Tucson, Arizona who were watching the game in standard definition. Comcast has apologized (they used the word 'mortified') and is issuing a $10 credit to any customer who claims to have been impacted. Various news accounts suggest that the incident was a malicious act, but no one knows how it was done or by whom."

I bet there were some that were "mortified" because it was only 30 seconds... LOL

Not as bad as the recent Liverpool cup match (forgotten who it was against, am only half concentrating with my horrid virus (in me, not comp), let's just say it's Derby, but correct me if I'm wrong which I will be)!

2 minuites into extra time in the final half, 0-0, Derby makes their attack and just as they reach the center circle ITV cuts into a tic tac advert!

It's only a minuite long, but as it comes back on, the entire Derby team is celebrating as Liverpool have conceded a goal and been knocked out of the cup (How's that for 'Woops'? )

it was liverpool vs everton fa 4th round. I WAS RAGING, as i am a Liverpool fan. There i was sure we would hold on. Then the advert came up half way through, then it coems up EVerton have just scored !!, WTF me and my dad were a bit annoyed to say the least.
