Worst of all, they put her on the field somewhere to avoid a lawsuit.

If they ask her to handle the Gatorade table or wash sweaty gear after practice (normally a guy's job), she'll sue the team and league for gender discrimination.

Agreed.  Total PC bullsh_t.  That's the world we live in today though. 

You guys realize the owner Woody, who is a big-time Republican, did this just make Mike Francesa go crazy?

And that lawsuit would get thrown out

 

If there's legitimate, nondiscriminatory reasons for her to wash jock straps she can't prove discrimination.

Fans of team that employed Jeff Weeks for six years upset about a summer internship normally handed to idiot son of running backs coach.

We have no qb, an inept head coach and the GM just drafted 6 different strong safeties after botching the previous two offseasons and we might not win 4 games next season

 

But this is what jet fans are mad about

There aren't many opportunities for women to play football. But she was a player so she's qualified. And many times people with few chances try harder. And this is the MO for women in sports. As for her replacing our current DC on week 1. It's worth considering. ;)

Was in Amsterdam Sunday to Wednesday.  London wed night and Thursday.  Amsterdam Friday.   GF job had crazy schedule but was fun. 

I was a kept man.  

Nice enjoy....I know London very well Amsterdam less so but both great cities and like you say over here there's life beyond the NFL...Let me know if you are staying around and I can send some recommendations your way.

 

and if there's one city inEurope you should try to get to it's  Rome

 

all the best

I can't wait for the first Maury where they test to see if Calvin Pryor or Buster Skrine is the baby daddy. It will be a ratings bonanza for Goodell and the NFL.

My bet is on Cro when he makes a guest appearance at training camp.

Bills add defense-focused female staffer for training camp

One year after hiring the NFL's first full-time female coach, the Buffalo Bills are adding another woman to their staff.

Sporting News has learned that Phoebe Schecter will be working as a training camp intern focused on defense.

Schecter’s entrée into the NFL came when she met Bills co-owner Kim Pegula at the league-sponsored Women’s Careers in Football Forum last January in Orlando. Pegula had asked Schecter, an accomplished women's football player and coach in Great Britain, for a list of female coaching and scouting candidates.

Pegula became so impressed by Schecter that she recommended her to new Bills head coach Sean McDermott, who offered the internship in late May.

The Bills broke ground last season when they hired Kathryn Smith as a special-teams quality control coach. Smith, though, and other Bills assistants were dismissed once head coach Rex Ryan left the team following the 2016 campaign.

Raised in Ridgefield, Conn., Schecter began playing organized football after moving to Great Britain in 2012 (her mother is British and father American).

She rose quickly through the ranks to become a standout linebacker for the Birmingham Lions of the British American Football League. Schecter’s success led to her branching into coaching during her time in the U.K.

Schecter is the fourth woman ever given an NFL coaching opportunity. Jen Welter became the first in 2015 when tapped for an Arizona Cardinals internship. Collette Smith will serve as an intern during New York Jets training camp.
