Footy - Parental Guidance Suggested

Posted By: Paat Kelly

Did you notice during the Highlight Show on Fox Sports Net that Footy was rated TV PG V. I've never noticed it during a sporting event until now. It is a contact sport, so there might be some contact, violent contact. Who are they trying to protect? Does the NFL have a rating? You know who needs a rating, the NBA. They beat up their own fans. How about baseball? They are quite violent towards that ball. Sorry, I just had to vent. This is moronic.

From the TV ratings guidelines:

"TV PG
Parental Guidance Suggested
This program contains material that parents may find unsuitable for younger children. Many parents may want to watch it with their younger children. The theme itself may call for parental guidance and/or the program contains one or more of the following: moderate violence (V), some sexual situations (S), infrequent coarse language (L), or some suggestive dialogue (D)."
