If you're gonna have a chick do men's sports, then at least make sure she's worth looking at!

She was going to be a parachute folder & sky-diving instructor, but ESPN flipped her.

For me it's really about how she calls the games - something about that voice just irks me. I have no problem with women calling games as long as they know the sport and don't sound like Reba.
I think Doris Burke does a fine job with basketball.

Totally agree on sideline reporters - but booth announcers need to be both pleasing to the ear and knowledgeable since they get the majority of air time.
Speaking of - whatever happened to Ron Franklin- dude had the best college football voice in recent years.

Didn't he get fired by ESPN for sexual harassment or am I confusing him with somebody else?

Or better yet get someone who knows how to do the job, after all you don't see them that much if at all.
