Troy Aikman is under fire following a controversial remark uttered on the “Monday Night Football” broadcast of the Chiefs-Raiders game.
While discussing a questionable roughing the passer call in the first half after Chiefs defensive lineman Chris Jones hit Raiders quarterback Derek Carr from behind, Aikman remarked, “My hope is the competition committee looks at this in the next set of meetings and, you know, we take the dresses off.”
Though the call itself sparked outrage – given there had been another controversial roughing the passer penalty just one day prior involving Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady and Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarrett – Twitter users called out Aikman over his choice of words, which some had deemed “sexist.”

Did he say it to some cheerleaders in his private suite?
Nobody is obligated to conform to the most fragile snowflake.
LOL. That has to infuriate all the gay trans lesbo latte sipping football fans out there.
IE: Stop being such sissies. What happened to the Bucs QB was part of the job risk. He had the ball and got tackled.
Uh oh. He’s working for Disney/ESPN now. No longer at FOX or in the Cowboy’s locker room. He got his bosses’ panties all twisted.
Sounds like a bunch of pantywaists running the NFL these days.
I say those who are "outraged" over this trivial matter should take their dresses off and hide in their closets until they "grow a pair" ... which may take a while for some.
I sure hope Aikman is wise enough not to apologize because if he does, this will never end for him. Besides, since his bosses likely can't define what a woman is, how could he be punished for insulting no one?
These complainers need to let their hair down.
Lol, “some Twitter users,” the arbiters of reason and decorum.
two people?....................
Anyhow, Troy is supposedly worth $65 million. Go to Tahiti for a month and lose all your cares...
No, they need a Godfather 1 trashcan involved monster beating.
>>> Twitter users called out Aikman <<<
So, tell the sewage known as ‘Twitter’ to go f themself.
All of these trans men (or is it trans women) at Disney/ESPN must be having irregular periods and having domestic violence episodes against their partners after this dress comment.
Are there some people, who feel the need to cry racism/sexism/homophobia, etc. in some innocuous remarks made by anyone, anywhere???? It’s hard to believe this is even in the news.
Under fire by a a couple dozen boys wearing dresses on twit. LOL
Let them get their panties in a wad. It was a perfect comment.
He likes his job, he’ll probably go on the air and issue a heartfelt apology to all the liberals who got the vapors over his alarming and sexist comments, that are sure to incite Republican violence.
where is that place? I have 3 months off next spring
