Did you see that Fox Sports Net commercial with Mike Tyson
babysitting an infant? Well, if you missed it you can forget about
it; Fox Sports Net has yanked the spot because they're afraid it'll
make viewers mad. No one actually complained about the Mike Tyson commercial, but network executives got a bunch of calls from the media; a spokesman said that made the network feel that "perhaps Mike Tyson's use in this manner was more provocative than they anticipated." What's so controversial about the idea of Mike Tyson's watching somebody's kid? Well, two years ago, Tyson told Lennox Lewis "I want to eat your children." Then, earlier this year, Tyson told a group of reporters that he wished they had children so that, quote: "I could kick them in the f---ing head or stomp on their testicles so you could feel my pain because that's the pain I have waking up every day."
