People are Saying that Troy Aikman is a Misogynist
Published:
There was a bad roughing the QB call during Monday Night Football and Troy Aikman made a comment that people didn’t like:
A truly awful call, but let’s not overlook Troy Aikman’s sexist comment: “My hope is the competition committee looks at this in the next set of meetings, and we take the dresses off.”

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 talkpic.twitter.com/lHVhv6WdEv

Some are asking for an apology, and/or for ESPN to make a statement. We’ll see what happens. Right now the Crossing Broad sports book is offering YES apology at -200 and NO apology at +110.
