I think this was clearly a joke and the outrage is annoying.

No worse than Hawk's remark about playing in skirts.

Hawk is just an older guy set in his ways. I think Stephen A's remarks about Ray Rice and his $3M+ salary makes him a target. I do understand that. Being outraged by insignificant jokes is just kind of silly though.

I know he said something that might disparage the holy grail of sports 'WOMENS ATHLETICS" , but isnt his job to create outrage and attention?

So, while the outrage might be excessive, isnt it what he wants.

And I care so little about what Stephen A or Skip say, I have no idea what this issue is about and I dont even care enough to click on it to find out the issue.

It is but I don't think he was doing that. He said "They might not have wanted to mess their hair up" (referring to a why a goal was scored in a soccer game) and instantly Twitter blew up. ESPN women reporters were outraged. I better never hear them call a man soft or tell any gender jokes.

Everyone's offended nowadays. I think they get not just identity but faux/righteousness out of it.

Is messing up their hair one of the things that women can avoid so that they aren't beaten by their men? I'm only "outraged" that people give a shit what SAS has to say.

There are many reasons he's a target. Making excuses for abusive probably puts him on top of the list.
