I saw this headline and thought "there's no way anyone could possibly defend this idiot".


Then I remembered TD.

She covers the football team. Hearing a reporter go in depth about a team he/she covers is not at all unusual.

It's like you people didn't even listen to the question. She was relaying what Funchess said he was working on. She wasn't making an observation about the man's routes.

As for the outrage, it's no different than someone saying it's funny to hear a black man talk about being a dad. Is it an accurate generalization? Maybe. Is it insulting to the individual who is the exception? Of course.

She's been a sports reporter for a while now and was a Panthers beat writer last season. I highly doubt that was the 1st question she ever asked Cam nor was it the 1st question Cam has ever taken from a woman about sports.

She also wasn't even going in-depth about routes, I have no idea why you chose to take that stance in your post if you heard her actual quotes. Cam's response made no sense whatsoever.
