"females make comments about the looks of male athletes all the time."

"A family full of pilots that I've spent plenty of time with in proper sims on the ground, and in the air on both private and commercial flights."

I'll speak in a manner you may better comprehend.

Taking a wild stab here: You didn't read the article, did you?

"The bigger question is whether anything like the "looker" statement would ever be applied to a male athlete."

It is six years now since Wimbledon caught up with the US Open by offering the women the same prize money as the men across the board. And yet every year, there is still the odd questioning or dissenting voice, asking if the women really deserve it. It was good to hear Wimbledon say, this week, that they are committed…

The trolls are strong in this post :/

It was a tremendous match for 4-1/3 sets. Del Potro just faltered after going 2-2 in the 5th. You could practically feel the air coming out of his tires.

I know and agree, I didn't say these people were particularly bright (although that would seem to put them right in the WEEI listening wheelhouse). Just that, had the FCC chosen to, their jurisdiction would have come with the radio broadcast, regardless of what media outlets were cited by the special snowflakes who…

Well, the director of The Ring was Gore Verbinski, also the director of The Lone Ranger. You know, the film that is being reviewed in this column.

That's a rather bigoted comment. I'm a white woman, and I've been rooting for Sloane Stephens since Day 1 of this tournament, and in prior tournaments as well. American women need to see the next generation of champions stepping up and what an incredible thing it would be to see Stephens make that breakthrough on…

Actually, it's very difficult to maintain a casual conversation during a match, especially where Pippa sits. It may be more tolerated at higher seating levels, though I don't think by much, as people truly respect the venue. It's one of the most wonderful things about coming here, not having that constant gabbing of…

Earlier this evening, I finally listened to the B.S. Report, post-Mad Men finale. Of course, Simmons tried to (very lamely) make a parallel between Don Draper's failure to get to L.A. and Doc's. (Remember, this was taped the day after Doc's initial move fell apart.)
