Just because she doesn't read it doesn't mean it's appropriate.
If someone at your workplace lost their job, would it be appropriate to talk about how it was a shame because of how good looking they are?
I have 100% said that in the past. sue me.

Totally off-topic, but genuine question: is "I don't hear a word she says" in reference to something? Like, what is the origin of that phrase with that meaning?
I have exclusively heard old men say it my entire life (and pretty few and far between), so I just assume it's some reference to something or sourced from something that was "of the time" or whatever. It's kind of an adorably strange way to call someone beautiful. No judgement, I'm genuinely curious. If I've heard it in a movie or something, I can't recall which.
My wife gets mad when I say speak up. Something to do with older men in her field of work.
I suspect that, particularly on a day that she lost her job, she would prefer that people remember and acknowledge her as someone who was good at her job, well informed about the topics she covered, and able to carry a show by being informative and entertaining.
I'll wait for additional comments about the stick also being up my bum.
First of all, get over yourself. JC
Second, I have never met anyone, male or female, who didn't like being called beautiful.
Third, I have not seen a single post or snippet that in any way whatsoever suggested that she wasn't good at her job.
But you carry on being the hero.

Am I the only one who couldn't stand Jay and Dan. They were funny years ago by being themselves. They left to America and sucked down there, then came back to this big highlight show at 11pm and it was awful. Their jokes are tired, they laughed at stupid crap and it became all about them rather than highlights. If they got wind anything was remotely funny they killed it. I won't miss them at all.
The new show seemed to lack the secret sauce that made them successful in the first place. I wondered if I had just grown tired of their act, but then I saw them at their live show in Calgary and they definitely still have it. I can only assume they don't get the same leash they used to when it comes to being spontaneous.

I think its a case of Jay and Dan being the trailblazers a decade ago, among the first to really bring comedy and their own interactions to the forefront, and the sports highlights being almost secondary. Now everyone is doing it...on tv, podcasts, social media. "Sports Entertainment, Edu-tainment..." etc. have become part of the lexicon.
I'll miss them, but their early years before they left for the US were certainly the top of their game.

The Jay & Dan Twitter account has been renamed to "JayOnSC", so I wonder if they're just going to give Jay a segment on the regular SC instead of producing 2 shows (which never really made sense)?

You can call someone smart or beautiful, or both. It's all part of one package. Being beautiful was part of her job of being in tv as well, just as much as being informed. She's not going to $40 salons like I am.
As a customer, a person is allowed to notice one, or the other, or both.

Being on TV means you need to look presentable. Looks is part of the criteria. Unless you work in TV or a bar I doubt your workplace has that same prerequisite.

OT, a friend of mine from Calgary wrote the Flaming Homer episode....

It sucks to lose a job you love, but O'Toole also became a millionaire from the gig so financially, he should be OK.
That might not be entirely accurate. He is divorced, has children to support from that prior marriage, and now has a new baby to support. Additionally if you listen to the podcast you would have heard about his love for Casinos.

Glad you are here to remind us of some guard rails that move minute to minute. Come on. I don’t know what she looks like nor how good she was. But it’s ok for a TV person to be remembered for their looks. Don’t fret about it too much.

Friedman looks like he got out of bed 30 seconds before going on air half the time so I'm not so sure being presentable is a cornerstone of being on a Sportsnet panel.
