Yeah - it's a back and forth argument on who's right and wrong. I thought she was very fair in her behind the scenes conversation. I understand her point completely. I'm sure most people have had way worse conversations about colleagues in private. This was actually right. ESPN is off the mark and speaks of classic management BS. I don't know why her colleague is so pissed at her though. Plus it's a leaked conversation - how are they not getting chastised for that leak?

Completely besides the point though, I wish they'd get rid of all these sideline "reporters". Seems like they're all fine at their job, but it adds nothing to the viewer experience, for any sport. The comedy routine with Chuck and Crew though is priceless - those guys should be on longer.
