Not as funny as talking about a tight end or penetrating the end zone.

She hasn't tweeted in 4 hours


She gone. I feel bad for her because she didn't ask to be put in the position forced on her by her virtue signaling colleagues but she had a choice, defuse it or run with it. I'm sure peer pressure and the possibility of a very bigger profile boosting her career played a part

But she could've defused the whole thing.

Exactly. Just because other people are taking offense on your behalf doesn't mean you have to.

Coulda just been like "I wasn't offended by what he said." and been done with it.

Instead she wanted to play the victim and send out the SJW virtue signalling vibes and invited this extra scrutiny on herself.

She probably felt forced but also saw a big career opportunity

Is it wrong for me to say I hate women announcers?

Am I needing help for my thoughts?

I'm saying if she gets canned for old tweets, that's what she can look forward to.

Jourdan Rodrigue received her Bachelor’s degree in journalism and mass communication from Arizona State University.




She was a digital communications assistant for the Seattle Storm.

Then she spent 1 year at the Centre Daily Times which only publishes mostly - Obituaries and Penn State Football gossip articles.

Then she's onto the NFL covering the Panthers - with 1 year under her belt. Not much of a football background resume. And she wasn't even a real football writer about the games...she didn't write game stories...

"Jourdan reports on the team’s statistics, activities, and news."

Who is injured, who got arrested, who was traded.

So maybe Cam was pissed that some low-level beat writer who tweets stats was trying to have a real X and O's conversation.

No because they are all terrible.

There's been a purposeful effort by the big media companies to hire more women in their sports programming and so they're hiring a bunch of skirts that are terrible at their job just to fill out some self imposed diversity mandate.

I hate women sports announcers too.

They pretend to know all about sports as they get their questions sent to them through their earphones by some guy who does know sports.

Gawd, I miss Howard Cosell. He was a sports announcer who really knew his sports.

I can't stand female sports announcers or sideline/locker room reporters for male sports, and my wife hates that shite as well.

So Cam apologizes and the first response from the beta boys of the sports media is "NOT GOOD ENOUGH!"

Newton did not apologize directly to Jourdan Rodrigue, the Charlotte Observer reporter whose question elicited Newton’s sexist response.

Why is Cam supposed to apologize for being a sexist toward a racist?

SJW politics is awesome when they get themselves in a bind.

Like Anibus weighing the heart for the after-life.



Uh, now what do we do?

Do we side with the racist female...or do we go with sexist black guy?
