Guest MikeSC Report post Posted June 4, 2004 ESPN sucks because of everything that is not either PTI, Rachel Nichols, or the NBA. Never seen Rachel. Pics please? Then again, when the only other woman prominently on the channel is Linda Cohn --- you really can't look bad. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Tino Standard 0 Report post Posted June 4, 2004 Rachel Nichols is a nice piece of eye candy, but I have a feeling that the reason they never show her from the waist down is because people would see her kneepads, then realize how exactly she got her job.

Do you ever assume that men can whore themselves out to get jobs? Or are we always hired on merits alone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And I'm sure men can whore themselves. Problem is there aren't that many chicks in positions of power, and most of the gay bosses are probably in Hollywood. Not that there's anything wrong with that... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Tino Standard 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2004 Uhh... Rachel Nichols was a writer for the Washington Post for a few years; she's hardly unqualified... I'm well aware that she worked at The Post... Her print work might have been fine and dandy, but I've yet to see anything worthwhile from her on television, and she's been there since February. There are different skills needed between broadcast and print journalism. I'm a week away from graduating with my degree in news writing, and I've worked at various newspapers for six years going back to high school. I'd be VERY hesitant to make the jump to television.

The Tino Standard 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2004 She might not have appeared on TV until the conference finals, but according to a couple articles I read, she made the jump in February. And as for her sucking somebody off to get hired, I'm saying she was probably a fine reporter for print, but she needed something 'extra' to get a TV gig. It was an offhanded remark that you guys are taking way too seriously. I think she's a fine piece of eye candy, but her television reporting has done nothing for me thus far. Just my own damned opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2004 I have an HD big screen, had an HD box for about a month before I actually got the cables to hook up to my TV, but through my cable line I was still able to view all the HD channels (if you have component or DVI cables you don't need the cable line into your TV anymore), just not IN actual HD so they pretty much looked like non-HD channels, only with black bars either at the tops or bottoms or on the sides...in other words, you should still be able to view the channels, though who knows what will happen in two years...

But of course it's every bitch's dream to have that wedding where the families don't get along and the kids run around screaming (although we're having an adult-only reception, which is causing a war with my old man). Oddly enough, it's every guy's dream to have a large-ass TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
