So she’s like everyone else at their job

O yes, I’m sure we all love sideline reporting, where they’ve turned stating the obvious as if it’s insightful into performance art.

What like some full blown Rita Skeeter shit?

I dont see how sideline reporters dont view their iob as insulting.

If you’re going to make it up? Go all in on it:

“When asked about the Giants’ struggles on offense in the first half and whether he will be making any adjustments, Coach Daboll quoted Thucydides, saying “The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision of what is before them, glory and danger alike, and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it.” He then turned away from me with a blank expression on his face and walked out towards the field, alone. Back to you…”

Probably the only strong evidence that the NFL isn’t scripted. For a while they really had me. Too easy for them to write this for each game. No need to even bother coaches as they prep for the second act.

Oh honestly, who cares? Does anyone expect substance from the halftime entertainment? I didn’t when it was my team’s former star running back and I don’t now.

I watch with the sound down, so as long as she stays hot, I’ll allow it.

I mean I figured this was the case. Same with Collinsworth. People on reddit like to hate on him because he is a hype man for the star players (like the NFL wouldn’t want that) but the thing that really sticks out to me about him is his made up anecdotes. Some 3rd stringer comes in and makes a play, and all of a sudden that just so happens to be the guy Collinsworth had a 30 minute pregame conversation with. “Now here’s a guy who said gee willikers Chris, we have to give it our all for 4 quarters!”

Which makes you wonder, what exactly DO these random sideline ladies offer?

She said this on Pardon My Take and I was so surprised she admitted it. Apparently her bosses already knows about this and she no longer does any sideline reporting so it doesn’t matter anymore. She didn’t want to do it anymore anyway.

Doesn’t matter much anyways. Coach speak to sideline reporters is mostly useless. Injury reports and other sideline occurrences are the only thing that is meaningful.

Admittedly without reading through all several hundred comments… Didn’t someone literally admit to this same thing like a year or two ago?

So we just watch a reality tv show?

When you look that good doing the job I’m sure it’s easy.

It’s almost like being pretty shouldn’t be the only qualifications for getting an all access pass to the teams during a game.

Go be a cheerleader.
