A girl next door look like a Suzy Kolber or a Jeanine Edwards coupled with actual talent is what guys are looking for when they watch sports, not some talentless bimbo.

OK, I finally googled it myself. Apparently she does the weather on the Fox NFL Pregame. I always watch the NFL pregame show on ESPN or CBS as I find the Fox crew to be obnoxious. I have no clue if she has any impact on the ratings for the Fox pregame show but I can guarantee that all she might be accomplishing is causing some high schoolers and dirty old men without Skinemax or the internet to watch the Fox pregame show rather than the CBS or ESPN pre-game shows. She is certainly not causing non football fans to tune in. If you get someone that is competent and attractive it is a bonus. In the realm of sports though the male fans prefer competence to attractiveness. Unless there is a chance their clothes come off like the Lingerie Bowl or professional wrestling. Then we'll go with attractiveness over competence in a heartbeat.
