But I told him maybe she knows more than the old guys that usually coach.

And she very well might. I’d be OK with that. I hope your grandson ends up liking her.

I don’t have a legitimate reason for why female coaches and TV commentators in the NFL bug me. I’m not one who approves of women being treated like second class citizens. I think there’s just an annoying, forced “affirmative action” feel to women being in the NFL.

Heck, I’m a woman. I don’t feel the way that one FReeper who posts prolific “I hate women” comments all over the place does. I laugh when I see those. 😂🤣

We’re good for something, eh?

Women in general in men’s sports is just weird to me.

They're often if not usually dykes. Yikes! Who needs it? Nobody.

There’s already at least one team that has an woman assistant. (Just checked, and apparently there’s a dozen women coaches).

There is also at least 1 women ref that I am aware.
