Walsh claimed that reporters like Georgia's Lindsey Gough want football stadiums to be 'quiet and gentle.'
8 Washington NFL Nickname Finalists, One of Which Will be the Final ChoiceWalsh discussed Gough's experience on Tuesday and took the opportunity to say he preferred male sports reporters.
"I must say, this situation only demonstrates why I, personally, prefer for sports broadcasts, especially football broadcasts, to be handled mostly by men," Walsh said. "Lindsey, though worse than the average—even as far as female sports reporters go—is definitely not the only female to enter into this mostly male space and seek to feminize it.", considerate, respectful of personal space. She wants it to be a more feminine environment. She's not trying to assimilate herself into the culture of football fans, she is rather hoping that they assimilate themselves to her," he said.
Walsh went on to talk about female sports reporters in broader terms, saying that this was a"problem" across society. People are really mad about what I said about female football analysts but I didn’t even advocate for a legal ban on the practice, so really I was being pretty tolerant and generous. You’d think these people would appreciate that. But I never get any credit."This is a problem across our culture," Walsh said."Sports just happen to be an area where the problem is especially pronounced and obvious.
