NFL Films, the official production arm of the National Football League, was flagged for keeping an extensive database of raunchy footage that lingered on cheerleaders’ breasts and buttocks, according to a bombshell lawsuit. Victoria Russell, a human resources employee fired by NFL Films last year, revealed the “sexualized and offensive descriptions of women” in a discrimination lawsuit against the NFL in New Jersey in January, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.

The Wall Street Journal article is behind a paywall.

Russell, who is black, was hired by NFL Films in 2018. She alleges in her legal filing that the NFL’s corporate offices are rife with “rampant misconduct against women, particularly women of color.”

I’ll self-censor on this one too, for a variety of reasons.

Multiple axes of self-censorship in play here.

It’s the database of TE’s that is really sick.

I am sure the NFL could find a man whose interest would be piqued to have that job and for half the money she receives.

It works out for all.

The NFL saves on salary.

The new employee gets a job he enjoys.

The “victim” is no longer victimized.

...buttocks, breasts and cleavage shots’: lawsuit

Buttocks, check. Breasts, check. Cleavage,.. uh, I thought that was breasts. Unless they're talking about some dromedary hoofage. Naaaaw.

These women should feel honored. In the future, they’ll probably be replaced with the likes of Sam Brinton.

Look, I really don’t care about this issue beyond the ongoing egregious societal double standard.

Why are these women dressed in the skimpiest outfits the weather will allow to begin with? And they are complaining that they are being categorized or viewed?

Lately I’ve again seen this egregious double standard by women who have complained on social media about “gym creeps”. I go to the gym several times a week and have done so for a long, long time. It irritates me to no end that so many girls and women go to the gym in full makeup and dressed like they are auditioning for a session of Fans Only. Why do women go to the gym and wear short shorts that literally look painted on.

Okay, I’m ranting, but perhaps if women dressed with some modesty they wouldn’t attract the kind of attention they continue to claim they hate.
