Tha Shit Storm

By now some of you may have heard about the reporter from TV Azteca being in the middle of a shit storm regarding the conduct of the NY Jets locker room. Apparently while in the locker room she was harassed and they made catcalls at her. What catcalls were made? Who knows? The AWSM (Association for Women In Sports Media) complained to the NFL on her behalf.

Ines Sainz said that during the Jets practice while there to interview Mark Sanchez the assistant coach threw footballs at her and players harassed her. Of course she went to her twitter (as most of the world does now when they have some kind of beef) and said that she was uncomfortable with the whole situation.

"Today I wonder why a well respected association such as the AWSM, within its right to inform about any violations of work conditions for its members, acted so impulsively" she said in an article she later wrote. "Considering that the AWSM was in fact worried about the event and about my integrity as a woman and newsperson, why did I never receive a call from them, and why were all these deeds denounced by the AWSM with such certainty?"

She claims that the false outrage created by all of this has set the women’s rights movement back “at least 50 years.” Come on now. Let’s not get carried away. Before this story broke I had never heard of this woman before. I had never seen her before. But I did go to Google and type her name and came up with some…interesting pictures. One of her wearing a wedding dress and proposing to a player.

Almost nothing but ass pictures or her wearing very tight almost painted on clothes. A woman wearing clothes like this is doing it for a few reasons. 1. She wants attention. 2. She is oblivious to the fact that she is surrounded by 300lb men full of testosterone and energy. 3. She is comfortable walking around looking nude. Now I don’t wanna sit here and start blasting her for how she’s dressed but fuck it, I will.

I don’t know where all of you live, but here in California, Los Angeles specifically, most reporters dressed as if they are going to the club, just got back from the club, or they dress business casual. So for as half nude as she looks its not uncommon. It just looks unprofessional.

Does this mean that she should be harassed just because she is dressed the way she is? No. No one deserves to be harassed. But you should also know that when you dress a certain way you will encourage certain reactions from others. Look at Pam Oliver on Fox during the NFL season. She never shows her boobs. She never shows her ass. She is a professional and gets treated as such.

Sainz needs to cover her ass, stop proposing to players and measuring their biceps, and hope that she didn’t fuck up locker room interviews for every other female reporter that actually show up to work looking like pros. We’ve heard Big Daddy Donnie say many times how wrestlers need to look like wrestlers and not like the fans in the crowd. Reporters need to look like reporters and not the women NFL players hook up with after games.

“’Just because I am dressed this way does not make me a whore.’ That is true. Gentlemen, that is true. Just because they are dressed a certain way doesn’t mean they are a certain way don’t ever forget it. But ladies you must understand that is fucking confusion…Its like alright, lady. Fine. You are not a whore. But you are wearing a whores uniform.” -Dave Chapelle
