Hey Chop, wasn't it you that had a big stiff one for Britt McHenry? She's in some hot water now

[PatsFan1283]

When did I say she didn't cross the line? You can cross the line and there be some justification for it. You know how many people go into those places complaining? It isn't a coincidence. They sit around all day waiting to tow people for no reason. They are trolls.

We've all been in situations like that and wished we could tell the person to go F themselves. Good for her. If she wasn't hot, blonde and working in television then nobody would give a shit.

I like where we are going as a society. Let's just film everything all day and then when someone F's up we sell it to a media outlet and pretend they are Satan reincarnated. 1 week suspension? As Ricky Watters would say "For what? for who?"

Seriously tow trolls are the worst. This company supposedly had a rep of waiting to bust people who were parked in the wrong spot 2 minutes too long. This actually happens a lot in and around major cities.

Every reaction in the world is on video now so you got this girl who is pissed off about some BS and she takes it out on the person.

Why do you guys think a medium like the internet can be so mean-spirited and cynical sometimes? Because the rise of video and surveillance has suppressed emotion in society. You can't have 1 bad moment in public because it might ruin your life so everyone comes online and acts the fool.

Sorry but the lines she uses are disgusting. And it wasn't just one slip, she went on and on and on...

1 week suspension because even if she isn't in front of the camera she still represents the "ESPN Brand".

I believe in personal responsibility Pats......If you are going to act like a complete asshole and talk down to somebody that way then there should be a price to pay.

If your daughter or wife happened to work as a counter-person for that particular tow company and just so happens was behind the counter when "the privileged one" walked in hurling personal insults, would you feel the same way?

I'm just saying there is a holier-than-thou lynch mob mentality that is forming. Also I'm saying tow trolls suck and them receiving some scorn shouldn't shock anyone.

A week suspension? Didn't Stephen A basically say Ray Rice ol girl had it coming and they gave him a week?

Yeah once backlash forms and it is all over the internet then they have to suspend her. I'm not saying their company HR protocol is really wrong or anything like that.

I'm just saying me personally, I don't care. She wasn't happy about the situation with the tow company and lost her cool, big deal.

These situations seem to be coming more and more common.


I worked at a video rental store when I was younger. This is before they did away with "late fees" so trust me I've heard some shit, lol.

The woman behind the counter did not:

Place the no parking signs
Tow the car

Nor does she own the company.

You don't really have a point.

I'd fuck the parking lot girl. Has stripper blowjob written all over her. She would let you abuse her

I got pulled over for speeding one time on my way to the gym at 5:30 am.

I didn't have my license or wallet on me. Therefore I actually had to go to the courthouse and show my license and pay the fine. That sucked as I was working/living a good bit away from the county courthouse. I guess berating the lady behind the counter who had to see my license and collect the fine would be ok because: A. It is an idiotic law that I had to show my license (I had the registration card and they knew who I was) and B. I was inconvenienced and out some $250.

Right?

 

[Vlad the Impaler]

What is the point of suspending these people. I would be like "Nice a month off, time for a vacation" since they all make a shitload at espn.

Not to mention, the only reason that girl has a job there is because she is hot. Has probably messed around with the other side of society.

Good point. ESPN isn't exactly known for being fair and balanced.

Nobody is justifying what she did. I'm just saying everything being on video and the faux-outrage that comes with that is a negative societal trend.

I mean people are flawed and they make mistakes. Is this chick a bitch? Probably but I'm not going to pretend to care.

When something like this happens again in 6 weeks and someone else gets caught on camera, I won't care then either.

Lastly, obviously if you are in a business like that you are gonna deal with a bit more of a disgruntled customer base than normal so you probably want to develop some thick skin. If I had to guess, I doubt the girl behind the counter was effected too much. Probably has heard way worse.

She looks like Elizabeth Hasselbeck kinda.

I have read worse things on this site, but there is hardly any outrage about some things written here. Is she held to a higher standard?

You don't really have a point.

When you work for crooks you are guilty by association.

EVERYONE in an organization that profits from ill gotten gains
from the receptionist to the janitor to the CEO is guilty.

The suspension is nothing but an incident like that can ruin your career if you are a TV personality. Her job is basically to comeoff as the girl next door, not the bitch who made you cry during recess.

She might not be big-time enough for it to effect her but if it were like Erin Andrews, it would be a pretty bad development for her.

 

[SheriffJoe]

There's no shortage of beautiful women that could take her place.

ESPN should have fired this entitled princess on the spot.

Classless bitch belongs in a strip bar.

 

[MikeB]

I want to disappoint her......err, I mean have sex with her.....

Of course she is
