This!

If anything, it is a shot at a man who used his position to sexually assault women and because it finally came back to haunt him, he had a really bad week.. It wasn't an insult to anyone who was assaulted by him.. It was just a saying "The Giants had a worse week than Harvey Weinstein"... Like... Damn, they really had a bad week...

Free speech

I know for a fact when Al said it, he was kneeling, and locked arm in arm in arm with Chris Collinsworth

The thought that it was offensive didn't even cross my mind until I saw what's in the above link.


I laughed but immediately knew he was going to catch hell. I mean come on you cannot make that joke on national TV in 2017.

I bet this gets Michaels out of there
An amusing irony considering Tirico's rep as a sexual harasser

Oh it is. Only because Weinstein is a liberal


I think it has to do more with him being a sexual predator.
