I only ask because she herself suggested there might be some bringing of pain in the break room later, following a debate they had on last night’s blown call. Erin thought it was no big deal and doesn’t get what people are getting so bent out of shape about. Mark felt a tad differently, and told EB her attitude about the whole thing is the reason “women shouldn’t be in charge of sports.” Erin did not seem to appreciate this! As is our wont, we’ve obtain some footage of the two settling this off-camera (watch for Matt Nesto in the background).

    Yeah Bess, as a member of the Tribe and a lady of NYC – you should know baseball, and to that extent, know the beauty and rarity of The Perfect Game. Mark Haines was actually right in this little diatribe.

    Sorry to say, but any other network the guy would have went Veronica Corningstone on Erin Burnett, not vise-versa.

    Its like at the end of the Super Bowl, that was won by a field goal with .02 left on the clock, and the (untrained, not sports-knowledgeable) female announcer saying “oh the losing team must of felt good because they came so close and put up about same amount of points as the other team.”

  15. Posted by Bess Levin | June 3, 2010 at 11:28 AM

    @14 where in this post did I say Haines was wrong or that I disagreed with him? (And Erin is Corningstone because, as evidenced by the above, she felt Mark was making a comment on the size of women’s brains, science, etc. Please don’t make me explain my genius again.)

    The only time I can remember that I actually agree with something that has been uttered from Haines’ man-pleaser

    @14 – go back to your home on whore island.

    Bess – oh dear Bess, thank you. Made my day.

    @14–
    Given that I’m not a tribe member, lady, or NYC resident my opinion probably means jack shit. However, since there have already been 2 perfect gameas already this year, I think I will remember this (almost) one for a long time. I actually agree with Erin on that point.

    We all “get” that Erin is a feminist and that’s all well and good when we’re talking about certain jobs or pay rates, but she is so clearly out of her element on this one that I’m half-surprised she’s even mad. Not that it matters because she’s a business reporter, but her not understanding the significance reinforces Mark’s point that (most) women shouldn’t bother reporting sports.

  24. Posted by NakedShort | June 3, 2010 at 11:53 AM

    IMHO Rachel Nichols is the only person I want reporting my sports news. I would be more than happy to pay to get ESPNICHOLS on DirecTV.

    I don’t know where the “if” comes in: women already run the world. Why else are presidents Sarkozy, Putin and the rest stripping off for the public gaze and arming themselves with young consorts, if it is not because they realise that in this day and age, the physiognomy is the message and that men have to become like women to get anywhere? If Berlusconi has any more operations, he’ll become one.

    Let’s put any of the dipspits on CNBC on a desk for a week, make them earn a buck or two. No more analysts on this site – you’re driving me nuts – guess what, someone else took the same test you took and knows more than you. Keep pluggin’ Bess, love the site.

    At last,I’m with Erin Burnett on this. Besides, this is the kind of conversation, the “TheView” type, where she’s good at.

    But, Erin Burnett, stop being a military strategist! Based your analysis on facts not rumors and innuendo.You sound worse than being financial talking head on this one.

  47. Posted by Matt | June 3, 2010 at 10:58 PM

    Erin is gorgeous. Nuff said.

  48. Posted by Anonymous | June 4, 2010 at 1:32 AM

    An anonymous commenter said before that CNBC is being held hostage by some of their talking head’s attitude. I guess, out of desperation, they would rather keep their talents even if they lost many viewers. They would only act if advertisers start turning their backs.

    What’s Erin been smoking that she stop attacking Apple? Drop in ratings month after month.

    erin burnett looks like an old lady. and she’s so annoying with that cackle of a laugh. it’s like a crow in the morning, you just feel like shooting it in the head and putting it and everyone else around it out of their misery.
