A Washington, D.C.-based sports radio host was fired on Saturday following comments he made about a female TV reporter who was covering the Washington Commanders.

Don Geronimo, whose real name is Michael Sorce, made the comments toward WUSA9 reporter Sharla McBride. The remarks led to the Commanders barring iHeartMedia – the parent company of WBIG Radio – from the team’s training camp facilities in Ashburn, Virginia, on Friday.

"Hey look, Barbie's here. Hi, Barbie girl," Geronimo shouted toward McBride while on air on Thursday. "I'm guessing she's a cheerleader."

Geronimo was with co-host Crash Young when the remarks were made. Later in the broadcast, Geronimo saw McBride again and mentioned that she was the woman Young had thought was "tight."

"Yah. I screamed tight when she was.…" Young said before being cut off.

Geronimo added that he thought she was a "cheerleader."

Unbelievable. THIS is what's getting people fired nowadays? I mean, Geronimo is a rabid Trump-hater, but I did enjoy his morning show & sense of humor, He just signed a multi-million dollar deal a few days ago.

How did we ever survive before we had women reporters covering the NFL.

Yet it’s OK to call Trump and his family every name in the book.

I remember the Don and Mike show here in DC, especially the episode when he came back after hiatus to tell the story of his wife dying in a car crash. He and his wife were driving home from the beach in two cars (he was behind her) and she was killed in a car accident in front of him.

She’s dressed ridiculously provocatively. He talks like a boorish tube

Not to say whether he should or should not have lost his job. Nor she- when I was teaching parochial HS wearing a boob-shape showing outfit would have got women into trouble not to mention how the 10th grade boys would have reacted

Idiots all around

Hot mess.

Don Geronimo - 100.3 FM
Sharla McBride - WUSA9

Don was ribbing another media outlet’s sports reporter.

A guy that knows about dozens of ballplayers knows about an attractive female competitor he sees on TV regularly.

What does Macy’s think about Gimbel’s...?

What’s to think about?

It’s time to double down and say that she is a “Washington Redskins Cheerleader.” Would they have to fire him again?

We survived on the sandwiches they made us while we watched the game!

Ironically the dude used the last name of “Geronimo”. Where were the demands for him to change his name?
