    Most FNC viewers would ogle her cans, then seek to deport her.

    Goofball is as goofball does. And if you work that hard to make yourself seem like a jackass, you deserve to be viewed as a jackass.

    I think there's an element of truth somewhere in what Portis said, but it's not the whole truth and it skews what the Jets case is all about.

    Do reporters of both genders notice when they're interviewing or even around someone attractive from the opposite sex? Of course. It's human nature. To suggest otherwise would be delusional.

    However, the majority of media members of both genders also have the maturity to put the attractiveness of those around them aside and do their jobs. If I see an attractive female reporter at an event I cover, it's not going to effect my ability to do my job one iota. Same for female reporters.

    That's the heart of the Jets case. Those morons let the attractiveness of the Mexican reporter affect their jobs, not the other way around. No matter how she dressed, they were the ones who showed they couldn't control themselves.

    If she runs into the right psychopath, sure.

    Am I the only one with visions of Dana Carvey as George Michael - "It's a perfect circle!"?

    Portis is entitled to his opinion. Of course, it is that kind of thinking that leads to guys having four day suspensions for waving their penises around in Georgia.

    That shouldn't be a problem.

    Portis is an idiot. Giving his quote space without getting quotes from other NFL players, makes NFL players look that much worse when it might be an unfair representation.
