The Morning After: Happy _________ Holiday, Football Fans

As if to prove that gay reality show contestants are not the only people who can offend America on live TV, Denver Broncos coach Josh McDaniels enlivened a Thanksgiving NFL Network broadcast with a certain twelve-letter word on a live mike, yelling at his team to “win a _______ing game!” The network apologized—after all, who could possibly anticipate that football coaches swear in the middle of games?

In other sports news, the Detroit Lions came through for me and my fellow natives of America’s cheeseball belt by losing; it wouldn’t be Thanksgiving without that. Feel free to share your stories of holiday TV, and to test Tuned In’s profanity filter, in the comments, and Happy Black Friday.

    Spoilers for the season finale of Glee below:

    One beef I often have with Glee episodes is that they move too fast, go in too many directions, try to cram in too much at once. You might say that about “Goodbye,” the season 3 finale, but in this case that approach seemed about right. It’s an episode about graduation, and graduation is something that, no matter how much you plan for and anticipate it, still goes too fast. Graduating is something you do, but in the moment it feels like something that happens to you, suddenly and all at once, like going over a waterfall.
