Respectfully disagree.
The NFL has been reaching out, to the almost pristine female market, for quite some time. Finding a competent women, to do a good job, is critical in tapping into that immense market. Women do a lot of spending.
The Jets Jackie Davidson is an excellent example of that. She's the cap "guy" now. Has a great rep, and seems to be doing a good job in structuring contracts. Could very well be at some time a candidate for a GM position.
If She's good enough, no problem. She's paid her dues
HYATT™;44131 said:CIN is a family affair and by all accounts, Katie Blackburn, (daughter of Owner Mike Brown and sister to Pete Jr.), is one hella Executive VP.
Any reasonable person would have to agree, they've done a bang-up job of signing and acquiring talent, other than a franchise QB, over the past 5 years or so.
Currently she is the only female acting GM, (CIN doesn't have an actual GM), doing all of the work that normal GMs do AND she's deeply involved in player acquisitions as well.
Along with Mike's son Paul Jr., his brother, Pete Brown, (Katie's uncle), she is heavily involved in the scouting and drafting of players.
Katie is the designated heir to Mike Brown and will take over the entire operation of the Bengals when he steps down.
Read the article HYATT™ linkyed to Katie Blackburn and say that again with a straight face.Hell, Leon Hess' daughter could have done that. After all, she's the one that alerted Leon to the fact that Rich Kotite was available.
I guess I'll be the 1st male chauvinist on the board, but I'm not thrilled about a girl coaching in the NFL. I don't have a problem with NFL officials, but a chick coaching LB's, give me a break ! I prefer coaches that have played the position they are coaching.
It pisses me off to see all these girls taking over ESPN. If I want to look @ a beautiful girl, I'll look @ my wife. I don't need some blond fox telling me about the NFL or MLB. My wife feels the same way, and so do most of my sports minded friends.
Go Jets...Cyborg
