If history had gone different, we would be looking a Phil on FOX Sunday NFL.

Phil can play some ball.

Re: Duck Dynasty

Not so sure that Phil was better than Bradshaw. Plenty of BU QBs ended up better than their starters.

Aaron Rodgers ---> Bret Favre
Tom Brady ----> Drew Bledsoe
Drew Brees ----> Doug Flutie



It is a pretty interesting little factoid though.

Re: Duck Dynasty

I like Phil even more now. I hope the show stays. It is pure brilliance in branding and marketing.

On May 9, Greensboro, NC country station 93.1 The Wolf reported that after receiving complaints over prayers to God and the frequent use of guns on air, Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson said, "God and guns are part of our everyday lives [and] to remove either of them from the show is unacceptable."
According to a post 93.1 The Wolf put in their Facebook page, Phil also said: "If we can't pray to God on the show, then we will not do the show." The post received more than 126,000 Facebook "likes."
Details regarding the source of the complaints have not been released. Nor has anyone clarified whether they originated within or without of A&E. Breitbart News has reached out to the network for comment.
One thing that has been reported is that A&E signed the Robertson family for another season, "under Phil Robertson's terms."

All the old timer truckers hate Ice Road Truckers. My dad has driven that road from Fairbanks to Prudhoe Bay since the early sixties and he grumbles anytime someone asks him about it.

Other old timers simply want to toughen up the people on the show by putting a boot to their (posterior.)

It is entertainment.

If you look to the boobtube for reality you must not experience enough "reality" in your day to day.....

Re: Duck Dynasty

I never saw this show before. I had heard of it when it first came on, around that time.

Someone told me about this show a few weeks ago.

I cannot stop watching it.
It is so funny.
Yes, it is well scripted and everyone sticks to their roles.
Still, it is funny to me.
Very entertaining.
The LA angle is interesting to me , of course.
Relatable things like ducks for food and LA makes it fun.

Then I googled things and they are indeed an interesting family.
Their eldest son, Willie, turned the business around and up .
It is just a good show. Good people.
Funny.

'Duck Dynasty' Star Vows to Quit if Network Bans Talk of God or Guns
wondered how long it would take for people to complain about the religious part of the show.

I live that picture! Not because its sacrilegious, but because its funny. I've posted it on Facebook before and received some snide remarks.

"People", complain about everything. Which is why PC is so absurd. If everyone is happy is because someone is stoned or sleeping.

People complain about religion, too much government, too little government, gas prices, team names, the draft, it's too hot, it's too cold, my soup is too wet, the sky is falling, the sky hasn't fallen yet.

Idiots complain about the relativity of guns and religion in this show. How exactly do people think Americans lived 100+ years ago?
