Bunch of uptight pansies.
There's more. Just didn't finish.
Former NFL quarterback Troy Aikman sparked backlash following a comment he made during “Monday Night Football.”
Aikman made the remark during a matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Las Vegas Raiders.
While commenting on a roughing the passer call, Aikman said, “My hope is the competition committee looks at this in the next set of meetings and, you know, we take the dresses off.”
Several Twitter users expressed their disappointment with Aikman’s assessment of the call.
Sportswriter for Dead Spin Chuck Modi tweeted, “Troy Aikman really needs to find a non-misogynistic way to critique the call besides ‘take the dresses off’. And I say this as someone who heard this misogyny normalized by coaches as a kid & even participated myself. Way past time to end such sports talk.”
