Simply unprofessional in any work environment. It's quite possible to get non-judicial punishment in the military for that kind of comment.

What is the purpose of the use of the female sideline reporter? Other than their during the game injury updates, I see no purpose in their pregame, postgame quiz questions to coaches. Whatever happened to cameras on the cheerleaders, mascots, & passionate fans during these 30-60 second slow action times?

what's the matter with "sweetcakes"

it's not like he called her bimbo or bitch, two of my favorites

along with something like "you don't have to check her roots, she's obviously a natural blond". That one kinda sets them off

what a whining bitch!!
Why? because she got insulted by a career misogynist scumbag?
What has Franklin ever done in his career anyway?
He's a geezer-hick who's better days as a pretty good studio guy are long gone.
I wonder how Fran-Fran put up with that blowhard?

All you rednecks that are sticking up for old "The line to make is the 40" should go back to your double wides and stroke yourself for the third time today because obviously you been turned down by women all your lives. Keep using that "How's it going, sweetcakes?" line to women, because it's a sure-fire turn-on to all of them. Good lord.

Suck it up. People call each other worse everyday. You are working in sports, if u can't handle the heat go teach elementary school or stay home and cook some dinner for your man .

F'in joke.

Why would u want to work with a woman instead of a man unless of ourselves u want to bang them.
