But it might be this: Kenny schools Cartman as Elin slices Tiger with a 7-iron in a game that looks less like a PGA tourney and more like Mortal Kombat. &quot;Oh man, I just lost another endorsement,&quot; Cartman says. &quot;How&#8217;d you do that?&quot; Kenny&#8217;s a sly little devil who apparently knows a thing or two about brand retreat in the face of controversy. He&#8217;s also a really good Xbox 360 player, so he figured out a way to administer a beat down while hitting Tiger where it really hurts\u2014in the pocketbook. Shades of real life! The fourth graders of South Park marveled at the violent video game, with Cartman saying, &quot;EA Sports really outdid itself this time,&quot; and Stan deciding golf wasn&#8217;t so boring after all if there&#8217;s fighting and F-bombs. The Comedy Central show, an equal-opportunity offender and still the network&#8217;s highest-rated show, makes fun of sex addiction, the CDC, David Letterman and Swedish accents here. So, EA Sports wasn&#8217;t alone in having its name raked over the coals. Wonder if they&#8217;re laughing?<\/p>\n<p>\u2014Posted by T.L.
