I always thought it was because he's on some extra liberal shyt with female & gay rights. And also dude gets sensitive as fukk on twitter and blocks nikkas over petty shyt.

But the way nikkas talking in here, it's like they caught him red handed with another nikka.
And their smoking gun evidence is they've never seen him out with a woman. :hhh: Like since when have we ever known much about a journalist's personal life unless they wanted to tell you? Ain't like the media following them around - they ARE the media :mjlol:

If she told Coach she had a boyfriend and he fell back, how exactly is that 'harassment'? SMH, trying to get my dude Coachman those deavors with some flimsy ass allegation.

he also "fell back" on his promise to mentor/assist her which basically amount to what the lawsuit documents detail "quid pro quo harrassment" = you offer something professional in exchange for some sexual interaction. imagine if your boss said said they can train you for a promotion then when you turned them down for a date they "fell back" on that offer. it's illegal.

shyt like this is really fukking things up for reasonable women Suing someone for looking at you is as dumb as the idiots who shoot/fight people for looking at them. The fukk, you don't know what they're thinking, or even if they're actually looking at you.

the lawsuit is about 20 pages and this is the only 3 sentences people are focusing on :snoop:. she is not suing someone for looking at her, that is one part of a larger disgusting story

They're trying to take masilculinity away :scust: we're caveman we hunt and go for what we want they'res nothing subtle about the mating dance. Every broad I've ever attracted in today's day and age would be considered over the line in how i approached :mjgrin:

The only thing that could save you is being good looking. You never see handsome dudes getting accused of this because their approaches are warranted

I could say the same thing as my ugly friend and I'll get a number he'll get a slap in the face or called a creep :mjgrin:

Fair enough, you make some valid points. I will say this in Coach's defense- Adreinne reached her conclusion that Coachman was harassing her not by any personal experience or contact with him, just on hearsay from other colleagues (that has yet to be confirmed). He offered mentorship and tried to break the ice with small talk with a not too personal question (then again I've worked in places that have a strict work related only dialogue so it varies what is deemed too personal). Andrienne was in a talent program so Coachman reaching out could have been sincere but maybe he was offended that her response wasn't a professional "no thanks" but a rather unpleasant "I have a boyfriend", instead of creating a negative situation where there wasn't one Caoch just stop communicating with her. Coachman wasn't in any position of power to influence her career, he just happened to have been through the same talent program as her. For all we know Coach's mentorship could have been just him saying if you need any advice/help with the developmental talent program just give me a call, here's my number and not the sex=career advancement scenario Adrienne is trying to allude to.

i know it's part of a larger suit, but the fact that "looked at me" is even in it is dumb AF. i could see including that as a detail to help paint the picture of longstanding harassment from one person - he looked at me for months, one day he touched me, he said these things...but just literally trying to throw anything at the wall about any male. ok. how does she know what bo was thinking? dude might be disgusted by her

why tf is saying "i have a boyfriend" a negative response?!! it's a common response breh lol, many men tell a thirsty broad "i'm taken, married, i got a girl" . you would have to be cooky or entitled to think someone is trying to be negative by telling you that. most people would just think oh "ok thats makes sense as to why you wont date me". to me "no thanks" seems a bit colder than "im not available".

well i think she did a good job at painting a vivid picture of the environment there. it seems like ogling was a major part of the fukkery at espn, she even details how security would purposely wear sunglasses so they can stare girls down without being detected. :hhh:

When the question is "what type of music do you like?" the response shouldn't be "I have a boyfriend". She is making all kind of assumptions based off pretty trivial small talk thinking every time someone offers her help they are attempting to 'hook up'. That's why she threw in all that unconfirmed gossip about Coachman from other colleagues instead of presenting any documented proof.

Let's say you were the head of HR and I brought this complaint to you. There's a female employee that was approached by one of her male co-workers and he offered his contact information for work related advice. She also says he got a little "too personal" by asking her what type of music did she enjoy. The male co-worker was told "she has a boyfriend" and broke off all contact with the female co-worker. Now, exactly what kind of reprimand does the male co-worker deserve in this complaint? Are you going to fire him for this?
