Football Pam Oliver out, Erin Andrews in - Page 3

**Bowser** · 07-14-2014, 12:28 PM

Pam Oliver, a mainstay on big NFL broadcasts for almost two decades, will be demoted this year and removed from her longtime role as sideline reporter next year.

SI.com's Richard Deitsch had the news that Oliver will be replaced by another familiar face on Fox's No. 1 NFL team: Erin Andrews. Andrews has been a huge star in the TV media field for a decade now, but it will still be strange to see Oliver getting phased out.

Oliver told Deitsch that Fox Sports officials came to Atlanta, where she lives, in April to tell her that she wouldn't be on sideline reporting duty at all in 2014. The story said Oliver asked that she be able to do a 20th season, and Fox Sports agreed. She'll be on Fox's No. 2 team of Kevin Burkhardt and John Lynch this season.

"I think it was predetermined coming in," Oliver told SI.com. "Not at that meeting, but two years ago it was determined that no matter what I did or did not do, a change would be made for this year.”

Fox Sports' spin to SI.com is that Oliver will be in a more expanded role, doing long-form pieces, major interviews and producing, mostly for Showtime's "60 Minutes Sports." It's pretty easy to see through that. The sad fact is, as Oliver pointed out, even lasting 19 years in her role as a female sideline reporter is rare.

“But I live in the real world and I know that television tends to get younger and where women are concerned,” Oliver, who is 53, told SI.com. “Just turn on your TV. It’s everywhere. And I’m not saying these younger girls don’t deserve a chance. I know I’ve had my turn.”

This a pretty major change for NFL broadcasts. Oliver did good work for a long time in a job that can be much more difficult than it looks. It will take a while to get used to not seeing Oliver on the sideline.

I didn't say you didn't say she WASN'T hot, turdbird!

The whole draw of sideline reporters is a waste, anyway. I feel like Pam Oliver was forced out because Andrews is younger and prettier.

Your tone said it all for me.

Regardless, yes, Oliver was forced out for the prettier model. She will be easy on the eyes but won't add anything to the broadcast. It will be interesting to see if they stick to standard headshots like most sideline reporters of if they are constantly pulling way for the full body shot.

It's probably about the same thing it is with all these sideline reporters, move the hottest ones up to the top crews. Putting hot chicks on TV pleases everyone, because both men and women like to see beautiful women. They do it on the cable news channels too. Distribute attractive infobabes around the set like props, have them read from the prompter or go stand out in the wind sometimes. Ratings.

Dude, you said she wasn't hot verbatim. You compared her to Sarah Jessica Parker with John Rivers' eyes.

I was lucky enough that the very first time I came to Arrowhead, last year's NY Giants game, I was in the front row right at the replay booth on the 25 and Erin's milk crate seat was directly under me. I took some photos at half time when she sat down to re-apply her makeup and she was a complete BITCH!

Anyone, I took these photos of her and she does have a great ass!

blaise · 07-14-2014, 01:21 PM

I think Andrews is annoying.

Haha one of our radio stations thought it would be a good idea to bring her on their show for a weekly segment. Kind of a dumb idea, and the stations ratings sunk when she was on so that did not last long. They should have known without a visual she is as worthless as a no arm quarterback.

Theoretically, I always knew that someone with this attitude could possibly exist, but I never thought I'd live long enough to see the theory proven. This is kind of like experiencing the discovery of extraterrestrial life.

I said it depends on what she is wearing.
