I love females and support their rise in any endeavor but listening to them call a football game is irritating. I have no clue why it irritates me so much...lol....but it's hard to watch a game with a female announcer. Navy/Oklahoma game is 'sound off' and just watching the game. Maybe I am a chauvinist and don't know it

It just bugs me that I feel like every single one of them tries to force a voice that you can tell is so fake

I get that's part of the career, but it's too obvious

This is called thinking out loud, and it's generally frowned upon when it's done on Internet forums.

It’s a sign that society is rotting. She should be at home cooking a meal for her family but instead woke ESPN decided they had to DEI their way through the bowl season. Hopefully that goes away starting in January

You’ve seen it for several years. TV commercials and shows etc. came across a a term yesterday for it. It is called white male erasure. Even these short advertisements for colleges during athletic events on TV you would think almost no white males go to these colleges.

They all sound like top 40 disc jockeys ca.1960s. Beth Mowen being the worst offender.

I know November must have been a very tough month for you. You just don’t understand… it was supposed to be her turn!!!

I would say I hope you had a Merry Christmas despite your melting, but I know that would offend you. Perhaps a Happy Holidays?? Happy Kwanza maybe?

I never wash clothes, never clean house, never cook, never even make my plate.

Blows your post-modern minds I’m sure.

I don't know that I've heard enough to form an opinion on them as a whole, honestly.

I feel like Holly Rowe should have at least been given the chance, but if she already was I didn't catch it.

Slightly off topic but the Yankees radio announcer is female and she's terrific

In fairness, I feel the same about most female comedians and singers.

You applaud when boys strip in front of gay men, dont you?

The evil 50's those dark days when people didn't sh1t in the streets, light people on fire and deodorant was not locked up on store shelves

You shouldn't let something like that make you feel threatened

Because you don't really like women.
