I like Holly. She may be a big girl but she's good. We have too many talentless pretty boys and pretty girls on air anyway. She's a breathe of fresh air compared


We don’t need sideline reporters, period. If they’re going to foist that shite upon us, they can at least have the decency to give us Kaylee Hartung to look at. And thanks to the Holly Rowe posters for NOT following the rules.

We don't need sideline reporters at all, and the attractive ones are for the sad old dudes at home who haven't seen a young pair of tits in decades.

When that day comes for me maybe I'll become the kind of weirdo who cares what the sideline reporter in a football game looks like.

In the meantime they're just telling me that an injured player went into the tent or that a QB was talking with his guys. Just useless blather.

Didn't she get him fired for that

WRONG!
He was fired years later for running his mouth in a production meeting.

Jan. 4, 2011
ESPN fired the announcer Ron Franklin on Tuesday, four days after his remarks to a sideline reporter before the broadcast of the Chick-fil-A Bowl caused him to be suspended from calling the Fiesta Bowl on radio.

“Based on what occurred last Friday, we have ended our relationship with him,” Josh Krulewitz, a spokesman for ESPN, said.

During a conversation the reporter, Jeannine Edwards, was having with another ESPN announcer at a production meeting, Franklin said, according to the Web site SportsByBrooks.com, “Listen to me, sweet baby, let me tell you something.” When she protested that his tone was condescending, Franklin reportedly used an obscenity. Franklin subsequently said he deserved to be taken off the radio broadcast.

This was not the first time Franklin had said something similar, which might be the reason ESPN dismissed him. During a Notre Dame-Purdue game in 2005, the sideline reporter Holly Rowe lauded Purdue’s defensive strategy despite Notre Dame’s big lead.

“If the coaches are giving up, what does that say to the players?” Rowe said.

Franklin said, “Holly, it’s not giving up, it’s 49-21, sweetheart.”
