Touche’, **rockle** , but I respectfully submit that your husband is smarter than most of us who tune in to football. 🙂 ---

**dan** , maybe not … he was rooting for the **Eagles** with me! But generally, he is much smarter than I give him credit for. (And FWIW, I become a drooling moron whenever I watch football anyway - something about men’s butts in those tight pants. Especially when Tom Brady is wearing them - yum! This is going to be a tough week for me.) ---

Well, I never really care what the sideline reporters say, male or female. They’re not needed. But when they’re scantily clad and female… then they’re needed. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by ElvisL1ves \* > \*\*She had previously done the Vanna White role on a short-lived ESPN sports trivia game show. Prior to that, much prior in fact, she had organized the New England Patriots’ first cheerleading program, while dating Hugh Millen (Bledsoe’s predecessor as QB). Guerrero is actually her mother’s name, btw - she dropped the anglo stage name for marketing reasons. \*\* Jesus … lousy quarterbacks really DO get all the finest tail! I remember reading about how Cade McNown and Tim Couch were battling over a Playboy Playmate of the Year a few years ago. And I seem to recall Stoney Case and Jim Druckenmiller both succeeding far beyond what you’d think their frequent interceptions and the graceful way they hold clipboards on the sidelines would merit. ---

Lousy defensemen and outfielders, too. The Rangers had to keep Ron Greschner as long as he was dating Carol Alt, and the Yankees can’t dump Dave Dellucci as long as he keeps bringing Gena Lee Nolin into the clubhouse. FWIW, her real/full name is Lisa Guerrero Coles, she’s used “Lisa Coles” professionally too, and the ESPN show was “Sports Geniuses”. ---

She asked Patrick _“Matt”_ Ramsey a messed up question about how it felt to play against ex-teammates (when he was never a Jet, then had to wing her question by saying good stuff about Coles). She’s comes off as nervous too often, just seems out of place and looking her age. She is long past her prime from the local girl on FOX-L.A. with Rick Garcia. Honestly, **Michele Tafoya** could probably do a better job than her. ---

Although she does not seem as comfortable in front of the camera as Melissa Stark, she is in no way as bad as Eric (Mumbles) Dickerson. Imagine that. Melissa Stark setting the bar for sideline broadcasting. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Neurotik \* > \*\*Sideline reporters are fairly useless anyway. When was the last time you ever heard one make an insightful statement? Might as well make them eye candy. \*\* The Eagles blew a late lead against Tennessee last year. The next week, they were on MNF. At halftime, the Eagles led and Stark asked Eagles coach Andy Reid pretty frankly what they would do to make sure they don’t fark up the lead again. Reid feigns indignance and blurts out “I can’t believe you’d ask me that, Melissa!” Best sideline question ever. Hurry back, Melissa! She had her baby pretty recently, I think.
