Suzyn Waldman, radio broadcaster for the New York Yankees has taken her 20+ years of professional sports reporting and chimed in on the Jets/Mexican reporter story, complaining at how far women in sports reporting have yet to go. For those of you haven't had the pleasure...
I'll do with a little hyperbole as much as the next guy, but really, Suzyn? Of all the dramatic things you've ever seen? A hayseed that can throw a ball hard gives a stuttering, unmoving speech only to go 6-6 with an E.R.A over 4, thats up there with, say, the Hindenburg, or the moon landing, or 9/11?
Pipe down and keep not challenging John Sterling's hackiness. Keep prostrating yourself before the Yankee alter. Just because you have a job doesn't necessarily mean you're furthering the cause of women in sports broadcasting.
Yeah...seriously. Sports are entertainment. Am I passionate about my favorite teams? Sure. But let's get some perspective on the real issues of the world. Most superstar ballplayers are setroid junkies anyway...so why are we making a federal case out of this?

ReplyDeleteAnnoying Joe...ever since the switch to the new background, the site is very slow and difficult to navigate.
