I'll judge her skills based on how many games she gets Devon Travis to play next season.

Not too sound sexist. Not trying to offend anyone. I mean to ask this in the best way possible.

.... but what are the chances a Sexual relationship pops up. With the players. I mean she a beautiful lady and professional athletes have been known to sniff around.

I know it sounds like a sexist opinion, but I mean it at least has to be considered.

No?

Most workplaces have rules against that stuff in order to promote a professional work environment. For example, NBA players aren't allowed to have relationships with team cheerleaders.

She has already worked for the team, and I expect her and the players to keep it professional in the work place. If something happens, the team can find someone else to fill the position.

A woman is appointed to a position and 2 of the first 3 posts are about attractiveness and sex.

I mean, seriously. She has a PhD and has been working with athletes for years...I'm confident that she understands the concept of professional ethics.

And given the current public firestorm, I'm also confident that the team will get a pretty thorough briefing on sexual harassment in the workplace this spring.

Wondering if Stroman required a heads-up on this move too?

Yeah. It’s true and everyone knew it already. Kind of douchey to tweet it.

Good on team management to recognize and hire her.

I think that sometimes people see what they want to see. I just can't quite figure out where this hostility towards our most valuable player is coming from.

Well, first, he's not our most valuable player, although he is quite good. But the hostility comes from his arrogance. That typically doesn't play well with fans, and when it does, it's short lived. He has an attitude about EVERYTHING. Maybe that's what drives him to be better, I don't know. But it's definitely the reason so many people don't like him.

Show up and play well once it's your turn you can tweet and say whatever you want i don't care.

Results are only thing that matter.

It's not really hostility, I like Stro, I just felt that he tried to indirectly take credit for Huffman's hiring by mentioning that he brought her with him. Even if that's true, that's not something you mention in the very tweet you congratulate her. Just kinda felt that he tried to make part of the moment about himself rather than only about her.

You can't be good without an unhealthy amount of ego, not surprised he would find a way to pat himself. You live with Stroman's ego if he continues to perform at a high level.

Im with u

we all love him, as a player and who is he is, where he came from etc.

he just has to relax a little bit with the ego but everything else im fine with as long as the results are there.

Jeff blair is just a fat slob who is dumb enough to cxall him out. If i were rogers, id get rid of that hack
