    I don't understand the infatuation for having to have female sideline reporters either.

    Have they ever run a route? Played offense or defense. know what it's like to see a massive linebacker about to blitz, ever had to pick up a blitz and on and on. Sure, they probably have studied hard, but there's no substitute for experience, and even just having played up to freshman university level, for sure I know things that they'll never understand.

    Yes, I know, I know it's all about diversity and inclusion - groan. Yes, the thought police are all apoplectic that Cam would say that (btw, no Cam fan here), but I fully understand why he dissed her.

    No matter how much I studied synchronized swimming, for sure I wouldn't understand all the nuance without having done it, but for some reason these women for some reason are now a mandatory of telecasts, and football reporting. .

    I have never learned a thing from Tafoya, but loved having the Goose on the sideline. Bona Fides were secure.

    Are you going to say the same thing to Jennifer Welter that she can’t coach “men’s” football cause she never played “men’s” league?

    Cam's obviously never watched the LFL. Those ladies can run routes.

    That was pretty rude, and sexist. Football isn't the only sport that runs routes.

    Wow!

    There are plenty of male sportscasters that have never played either. Or they report on other sports they have never played. More painful to hear than a woman who actually knows football.

    Listening to Mike Golic outside of football season makes me want to start a swimmers lives matter movement.

    She had a follow up interview with Sir Cam after his cute jab. Had an opportunity to apologize but didn't.

    Being a good reporter requires a different skill set from being a good player. So does being a good coach, scout, or executive, for that matter.

    She's not a sideline reporter.

    By the way, this is one of the most sexist screeds I've ever seen here. Congrats.

    No shit. You do realize that there are coaches, GM's, sportscasters, etc whose playing days ended in HS, and some who never played a down in college. I'm not sure that qualifies as having a lot more experience than some lady who loves and studies the game. There are also plenty of ex-players and coaches with tons of experience who are just painful to watch on TV as commentators and sound like complete dipshits, but, ya know, they know things she'll never understand, right?

    I often wonder how people like you are allowed out of your house each day unsupervised.

    Who cares? He knows his shit.

    There's a reason the former athletes are primarily used as "color guys." They can provide some nuances and insight that a non-player can't, but they generally don't have the chops to be the primary commentator.

    Cam is an idiot, that was not only a remarkably dumb thing to say from a PR standpoint, but it was just dumb, period.

    And Bite me similarly shows a lack of critical thinking brain power.

    I disagree. I'm insulted when he comments on Olympic swimming.

    But my point is that n one critizes him for doing the job and I'm pretty sure he Cross dresses at home.

    Ignorant sexism is alive and well, and why we have an orange liar in the White House.

    My wife has joined me on several high routes, some with exposure that would turn some mags and NFL players into insta-sissies.

    Huh? Who the fuck besides a bigoted relic would give a shit? I guess it would be a story if he did it in public, but that's only because this country is filled with an abundance of bigoted fucks who fuck it up for the rest of us. You wife wear pants?

    To do what... become even more annoying than Chris Collinsworth while being less eloquent? I think Romo is terrible, but not as bad as Rex Ryan.
