Lotta' virtue signaling for a very bottom of the roster Bills employed media person.

 

She had a video excerpt at the stadium during the game talking about the next gen stats around Allen's TD pass to Diggs in the Jets game.     Wasn't any booing from the crowd or anything but who really cares if she has to move on to another gig?   Does anyone think she adds anything that is difficult to replace?   If so, what?

There are a lot of simps in 'modern' society

So I learned this whole situation was leaked by the reporter who she is taking to and he is essentially on thin ice with everyone. That reporter and the news station didn't have to leak this or let this out.

 

A lot of people are pissed in the media for a colleague to do this. A few chewed him out royally. 

 

edit. This is fact.

I don’t think that the “no insights” criticism is valid. She is employed by the Bills, so she reports what they tell her to report. She would not make any insightful comments unless directed to do so. The further away from the Bills someone is, the better they can discuss such things. She’s as close as you can get. 

I understand that she's limited but Chris Brown is also employed by the Bills and, to me, offers on his show with Tasker, some reasonably astute observations.

 

I think as far as "reporters" go, Brown is decent, and has been around the game and understands it to a fair degree. I don't get that with Glab.

 

I'll still turn to Cover 1 for real nuts and bolts insight, but that's my take.

Any insight as to whether the Bills are upset with Glab herself over this incident or just keeping her out of the spotlight for a bit to let this die down?

She's still listed as employed by the team, so I imagine after a serous talking-to (not that I think she really messed up bad) she'll continue to do her job.

I would think so as well, after the Jerry Sullivan incident he was terminated just about immediately.  She would be gone by now if that's the action they were taking.

lol, the lady sitting behind me started going off on her when that came on.  “Yeah Maddy and you were TALKING SH** ABOUT OUR STAR WIDE RECEIVER!!!” 😂

 

(she was also pretty drunk I believe)

I think you can be employed by the Bills and still provide valuable commentary about the game. They aren't gonna fire her for example if she knew what a Cover 3 defensive coverage scheme was

That's all fair and I don’t watch that stuff anyway so I don’t have firsthand knowledge. But I am sure that teams have very tight control over their reporters. It’s certainly possible that she doesn’t know much about football. But it’s also possible that the Bills have her limited to doing more fluff.

She's usually on with Tasker on Bills Tonight after the game on MSG. Which is why I never watch. Chris Brown was on last night. Seems logical that this is why. Gotta let things cool down.

 

She has no business being an analyst on the game. She was brought in to help with female engagement by doing short videos on BB.com, asking players about their favorite color and crap like that. She started on TV by having a segment on One Bills Live called "The Maddy Awards". Instant channel change. Now when one of the hosts is off, she fills the chair (but not the shoes) of Chris or Steve. I have no opinion of her as a person. But if she's on my TV, I change the channel. Her voice grates on me.

I like Maddy Glab. I hope they keep her around. And this current drama really seems like no drama at all, as far as the Bills are concerned.

Why in the hell would he do that to her?

Listened back and can't tell who this guy is, unfortunately.

Yikes. I expected it was just an oversight by the web team; thought they just started the stream and opened the mics early.

[Dukestreetking]

I don't like Maddy Glab.

 

The whole thing is a**-hat ridiculous, overblown.

 

That's all I can say about that.

[SCBills]

I have zero desire to consume any content involving her.  Anything she's involved in, I'll typically turn off.  

 

I'd love to see anyone replace her.

 

That said.. I don't wish for anyone to go out like this, even if she was quite unprofessional in that moment.

Nobody forced Princess Maddy to spout off like that. That's her own whiny mouth making those statements

 

talk about blame the messenger, wtf.

What? 😂 Why would the other reporter backstab Glab? Are you seriously saying he should have done that?

[Blackbeard]

You guys are way way too critical and harsh on this woman 

 

Cut the gal a little slack and let it die.  My God.  Find something legit to gripe about.

I dont think she is good at her job and she just made a very unprofessional gaffe. I dont care how much money she makes.

 

 

 

Hopefully at your next job they station a microphone to eavesdrop on your every word.

Maddy when she comes back. Maddy’s got street credibility now.

haha so was this the equivalent of the new prison inmate finding the biggest guy there and kicking his ass the first week?

That is where we disagree. I don't think that she was dissing him.

 

He had the opportunity to diffuse the situation . . . especially after she profusely apologized. He decided not to be graceful.

 

Indeed, he could have shown the same grace that was shown to him after screaming at Josh during the Bengals game and an off season of cryptic social media posts etc.

It doesn't matter that she wasn't "dissing him."  It's the perception of the majority of people who heard it and retweeted it.  I agree.  I don't believe she had any ill-intent.  Diggs could well forgive her...but again, it is a bad look for the organization.  And it's especially hurtful in light of all the opinions that have been posted about Diggs since the end of last season.  It adds fuel to that narrative.
