A Little Nipple
Shaun Powell's commentary from Newsday about the Janet Jackson "wardrobe malfunction" is right on.
By giving freedom to a handful of pop stars known for their naughty lyrics and skimpy wardrobes while slapping limits on the behavior of players, something else revealed itself Sunday besides Jackson's nipple: the hip-hopcracy of the NFL.
The NFL consciously wanted to bring in a more "youthful" audience by catering to the MTV crowd. Now they're backing away full speed, but can't dispute that they tried to have it both ways. Moral -- sex sells, even in football.
