I'll take that....... happily!

Still, a point's a point at this stage of the season.
Lovely moment of linguistic squeamishness on the BBC Sports website today, reporting on an exchange of opinions that Little Mickey Owen (who apparently still plays occasionally for Man U) had with some newspaper hack or other. I love the fact that the BBC have been, erm, bothered to substitute a word rather than simply ****ing it:
Holt: "Honest question then Michael: why don't you tell them the facts?"
Owen: "I try to answer most questions Ollie but can't be bothered* being a back page story so some things don't need to be said!"
*The BBC has substituted "bothered" for the word Michael Owen actually usedhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/13139857.stm
Likes the warm feeling but is tired of all the dehydration.
