That's cool about ET Canada! I hope it gets uploaded too.

Thanks for the pic link.

well I'm watching ET Canada and so far no mention or FNL related info on. May still come up but no promo's for it - maybe tomorrow

haha and just after I said that, they aired the spot. I couldn't record it. Mostly focused on Riggins (obviously) and his upcoming storylines. Interviewed coach and a couple others.

and thanks for the pic! looks awesome in HD. Looks even more awesome as my wallpaper

“Friday Night Lights” Producers Are Cowboy HATERZZZ!

I’m not a regular viewer of “Friday Night Lights,” though I’ve really liked it the handful of times I’ve watched. Everyone who watches it adores it, and I have no reason to doubt their loyalty. Plus, the show stars Connie Britton and Minka Kelly, and Connie Britton and Minka Kelly are so insanely hot, I can barely stand it. Plus, the show is about football! And Texas! FOOTBALL AND TEXAS AND HOT CHICKS FOR THE WIN!

Ah, but there’s something nefarious going on with this show. If you don’t watch the show you may not know that Coach Taylor (played by Kyle Chandler) had a smug, ambitious offensive coordinator named Wade Aikman. That’s right. The bad guy’s name is Wade Aikman. I don’t know what’s more offensive to Cowboys fans: that the bad guy would have a Cowboys-inspired name, or that the show’s writers would dare conflate the team’s Hall of Fame QB with the goofy coach currently roaming the sideline. Now all I can do is picture a 300 lb. Troy Aikman. Thanks for that visual, you bastards.

What’s worse, in last night’s premiere, New York Magazine reports that evil Wade Aikman takes over as head coach of Dillon High after coach Taylor gets the boot! FIENDS! Now Wade Aikman is an even more powerful bad guy!

This is yet another example of blatant anti-Cowboys sentiment in the national media. I still remember watching “Loose Cannons” as a child and seeing Gene Hackman rocking a Redskins jacket. THAT’S A CLEAR BIAS!

I suggest you Cowboys fans not take this lying down. That show has been struggling to stay on the air for years, so use it to your advantage. Write to Peter Berg (the show’s creator), and tell him you demand the bad guy’s name be changed to something like Donovan Reid, or Chet Manning, or Dan Snyderstein. Should they fail to comply, threaten to continue NOT watching the show. It’s not a real depiction of Texas if it’s got Cowboy hatin’ in it! We’ll see how long ol’ Wade Aikman sticks around after you’re done with him!

this person is a moron! plus, i think he got wade aikman mixed up with buddy.

**colorful_dust** · 10-29-2009, 04:38 PM

How stupid.

And yeah he was totally thinking of Buddy.

gilmore_maniac · 10-29-2009, 06:29 PM

haha when I read that I literally thought he was joking...but I'm thinking now he's actually 100% serious.

That's hilarious. I doubt Cowboys fans would boycott - in fact, it may draw more viewers to the show lol

cheldax46 · 10-29-2009, 08:35 PM

One of the show's original main characters is named after a Cowboys icon so I think it's safe to say the show doesn't have an anti-Cowboys bias.

Whitter · 10-29-2009, 11:01 PM

Obviously that boy has too much time on his hands. I'm pretty sure FNL and it's 25 viewers are trying to cause the downfall of the Dallas Cowboy franchise... There's fixin' to be a rumble tonight!

A slightly different version of the FNL ad with the Taylors and the newbies...

From Access, the DTV magazine...

***Enigma*** · 10-29-2009, 11:02 PM

Well I'm a Texan and I hate the Cowboys.

Thanks for the pic Whitney.

**Poupa** · 10-30-2009, 05:44 AM

So no one managed to record the ET segment? :/

I think it's weird that Tim, Matt and Julie aren't featured in the poster. So weird.

I managed to rip it and upload Taylor's segment from Daily 10, and Taylor/Kyle interview:

***Enigma*** · 10-30-2009, 10:07 AM

Thanks for the vids Sally.

And no I haven't seen the ET thing anywhere.

**colorful_dust** · 10-30-2009, 07:06 PM

Thanks for the scan and videos.
