Detroit Tigers Matt Shepard's Creepy Comment

Post by smallwonder » Sun Aug 20, 2023 7:53 pm

This is way worse than anything Kevin Brown ever said. Will the Tigers brass allow this?

Well, maybe Leinenkugels has a new slogan thanks to Matt!

Kevin Brown critiqued his employers poor stats on the air. Just don't see how you call this "way worse".
What Shepard said was no big deal.

Creepy? No.

Inappropriate comments at the expense of the bride-to-be? Yep.

He was fine until the 'nothing sexier than' line, which, in addition to not being funny at all, was over the line of professionalism you'd expect from a MLB broadcaster in 2023.

Probably nothing more than a teachable moment though.

Had my wife watch it for her opinion. She is a 65 year old conservative leaning sports fan. Her opinion was NOT creepy but a bit unprofessional.

FWIW, I thought Shep said "wine cooler", not Leinenkugel. Meh, nothing to see here.

Absolutely nothing wrong with that comment. Lighten up, Francis.

I agree. Overall, the comments by Shepard and Monroe were friendly towards the group of women. They'd probably get a big laugh out of what Shepard said. But unfortunately we live in a time when people are looking for something to jump on to make themselves look better.

Idk, man. I like to think I'm pretty fair about things like this and, if you wanna call it "unprofessional", fine. But I don't see that much wrong with it. To be honest, I think it would help society a little more if we could compliment and say things like that sometimes. A person that's feeling themselves that day will probably be in a better mood and maybe not be such a douche canoe.

When I see anyone drinking a Leinenkugels, I immediate know they have no quality beer tastebuds... It USED to be a good brewery, before they sold out. But now it's just mass-produced swill.

No one is sexy drinking that beer! :hat
