Assuming the ceremonial coin had a relatively even weight distribution between heads and tails.

Scaeagles (or any other Arizona-based LoTers), did you get to see the dong after Fitzgerald's long touchdown?

(Link is safe. NSFW video available on link, however.)

"KVOA will continue to investigate what happened to our clean signal and make sure our viewers get answers," Nielsen said in the statement. Comcast spokeswoman Tracy Baumgartner confirmed that the company's standard feed was interrupted during the Super Bowl, although she said its high definition feed was not.

Baumgartner said engineers at Philadelphia-based Comcast were investigating Sunday night. Tucson media outlets reported that they received calls from irate viewers about the pornographic material. Joel Hilander of Tucson told The Associated Press that he and his young children saw the clip. "I couldn't believe it. And I couldn't believe that my children were watching it either," Hilander said.

OMG! I am SOOO angry about this. I don't think I will be watching the super bowl anymore. I had just called my teenaged daughter in to have her watch the replay of the last play. And then that comes on. I am furious. And it kinda kept you watching cuz you were thinking, 'ok, this HAS to be part of a really bad commerical' — Ann C. (backroadsann), February 1,2009 @ 8:41PM

It was localized to the Tucson area from what I understand from the local media. I did nt witness it myself here in Phoenix.

Not really, assuming it is random which will be called by the player.

If the toss is biased 75%/25% in favor of heads but the player is randomly making their call they'd still be right 50% of the time.

But yeah, my main point in the response was that the previous 11 outcomes are irrelevant to the setting of the odds for this coin toss. There are certainly other biasing factors in the current toss that could have an impact (such as that soldier doing the toss being an expert coin tosser able to produce a desired result and he's from Tucson).

I wish my TV gave me random porn.

I don't understand why people get so upset; it's not as if any network is going to -- as a policy decision -- do it on purpose. If you're child is that fragile that a few second of squeak and bonk is harmful then you probably should just hit them in the head with a rock right now.

here's the link to the snafu that happened during the end of the game... when the game went off and the "brown chicken brown cow" went on - where the star was"swinging his junk around like a maniac":
