oldmanfan Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 Maddy, welcome to the Bills and Sabres. I wish you every success in your job, and look forward to your reports. And as the father of two daughters, I am sure you ignore some of the sexist crap posted here because you've heard it before as have my daughters, but my apologies for the Neanderthals who post that kind of nonsense. Now, as for the important stuff: Ted's (hot sauce and onions), Bocce's (pepperoni with extra cheese), Beef on Weck (you'll hear several names, try them all!!), and Wings (again you'll hear various opinions, try them all but I'm a Duff's guy myself). 1

What is true is that the anonymity and impersonal nature of social media, message boards etc. has made it much more likely for someone to say something demeaning about another person "publicly" where before only their small circle would be privy to their idiocy. So it’s “idiotic” to prefer an attractive media host to one that isn’t attractive? If that’s “idiotic” than the world is idiotic, because that’s what the world “prefers”. Well then, I suppose I’m an idiot, just like the majority of the world that likes to look at attractive people. Just like the countless media outlets that hire attractive people to host their shows. At least there are a handful of people, like you, that aren’t idiots.

If they would just stop referring to them as reporters and (worse) journalists and simply call them what they are, "Bills spokesperson...", all would be good. They need leave the "what are your thoughts after that tough loss" deep deep probes to the real pros in the press.

Ha, well I was mostly being cheeky, I obviously understand their position/role with the org, and that certainly doesn’t fire me up as you’ve described. For the most part, I avoid the official website, I’m not one for fluff pieces in general, sports or otherwise. As I was explaining to a “TeH SlaNTeD MsM!!!1!” friend recently, it’s up to the individual to decide what and where to read and “believe” as far as news. I try to stick with “hard copy” reporting, and avoid pieces labeled “analysis” or “opinion”.

TommyBoy Posted July 25, 2019 Posted July 25, 2019 This is all sad, she had a good job covering UT sports and well liked/supported by the community. This might not be the step up she expected

1997WS6 Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 Wow, I just read this thread and wish I hadn't. I can't believe what jerks some of you are. First, I want to say Maddy is a very good looking girl, but even if I thought she wasn't, I wouldn't say a thing. I guarantee the "men" saying these things wouldn't be saying them if she were standing in front of them. Why? Because it's rude, and not true. Thankfully, she's been told she's good looking her whole life and probably won't be too affected if she sees this thread, even still, I'm ashamed FOR you. 3
