Another Female Reporter, Locker Room Incident

If I were a football player, I would work as hard as I could to get the union to back barring all reporters from locker rooms until the players are dressed. That said, the Jets should have treated the female reporter professionally.

I just posted this in the NFL thread:

NFL Week 1 Gentlemen Start Your Engines!

While I agree with you about the lack pf professionalism on the Jets part.....

No one should act surprised or appalled by this. Just Google image search Inez Sainz and that sums it up.

I'd let her in my locker room any day.

The stuff on the field is childish, but if people are seriously going to get their panties in a bunch because a bunch of dudes in a FOOTBALL LOCKER ROOM start being suggestive to a female reporter then they need a quick reality check. The locker room is a place where guys who are under an intense spotlight during the season can be guys, and talk as dirty or whatever as they want.

Yeah, what does she expect? An attractive girl plus a room full of testosterone-filled young men.... and she has a cry when a few of them call her sexy or something.

Normally I would agree 100% with this, but part of having that spotlight means you're expected to be a professional on and off the field. That said, I'd cut it even and just ban all reporters from the locker rooms.

Let's be real, fellas. This.... inside an NFL locker room.... equals trouble. It won't be the last time she deals with harrasment either. It may not be right, but it is what it is.

I'm sorry, but IMHO... if they want athletes to act as professionals, the reporters covering them should dress professionally as well. Put a Hillary Clinton suit on her, and most of these issues would be resolved.

Agreed. It's part of the job for pro athletes, like it or not. But yeah, even as a former journalist, I'd say the only way to eliminate these incidents is to keep reporters out of the locker room.

After seeing what she wore for her interview, it is clear to me that the Mexican TV outlet was not treating her 'interview" with Mark Sanchez as a serious sports story. I don't know Mexican sports culture, but I don't think they would send a shapely woman in a halter top and painted on jeans to interview members of the Mexican World Cup team.

She has Univision "bimbo" sort of look that is mainly for laughs and leering.

I take it back. I see she has covered the World Cup wearing the same sorts of clothes. I will say this, the woman can certainly fill up a pair of jeans!
