Cowboys reporter out here spiking footballs of her own.

Another sign of advancing age is when you don't know who in the blue hills Jac Collinsworth is.

 

Our typing teacher was the cheerleader co-sponsor, gorgeous and nice as could be. We'd ride our bikes by her house in summer to see if she was out in a bikini top watering the lawn.

 

Was the meet at El Dorado Park? Did you get quotes from Joe Carlson? Most importantly, did anyone throw up on you when they crossed the finish line?

If she aspires to be a sideline reporter, the look at meee bs may not hurt her.

 

It's fine for her to enjoy the moment but I'd be more impressed if she took the high road here.

That being said, when I was 25, I did stupid shit all the time and didn't have social media -- which meant I didn't have a "look at me" outlet but I also didn't have people firing off unkind things to me on the Interwebs. That took effort 25 years ago, like a phone call or a hand-written letter to the station.

 

Tweet-stabbing your high school guidance counselor is rather lowly and not verifiable at this point.

Has a single other person at that school come out to say similar things about the counselor?

She wrote longer at LinkedIn:

To my high school counselor that told me I was never gonna make anything of myself…. I just covered my first Cowboys game at the age of 25 while ur still at the same high school bullying your students….. yikes.​

Fun Fact: employers don’t look at your high school transcripts while they are reviewing your resume.​

To the kids out there that aren’t “book smart” and have trouble doing well in school : School isn’t for everyone and ALL that matters in the real world is how hard you are willing to work for what you want. They are going to look at the people who put their job above anything else in their life. The ones who come in early and leave late. The ones willing to clock 60 hour work weeks in order to better their careers. The ones who are not with friends and family over the holidays so you can cover a game. The ones who are willing to put the blood, sweat, and tears in perfecting their craft.​

Anything u set ur mind too is possible if your willing to work hard enough to get it.​

Wonder what type of work she does in her 60 hours.

"My cousilor told me to not go to college because it was a waste of time due to my bad grades in high school."

 

They have 7 reporters and put together 2 half-hour shows per week.

I wonder what her 60 hours of work per week consists of.

 

Like many on here, I laugh at the notion of 60-hour work weeks in my previous life in journalism. For many of us, 70 is closer to reality.

 

I do 20 hours of live TV a week plus a half-hour show that runs Sundays.

Her words are petty and preachy. As one who put in those 60-hour weeks when I was in sports for a decade, that didn’t matter one bit as to whether I would meet my career goals.

Now in sports, the paths are simple to get big time.
Are you a smoke show who can also flirt with players in one-on-one interviews, giving the viewer the impression you’re DTF after the set gets broken down?
Are you an information person who can break big stories?

That’s about it.

 

I’ll take your word for it, but I shudder to think it was worse than Louisville-UCF. I ordinarily like Roy Philpott and Andre Ware but they made an unholy hash out of it.

As for guidance counselors, mine would help you out with college applications and getting connected to things like Boys State and Governor’s School if your parents had money. Mine didn’t, so she never bothered getting to know me, even after taking over as my scholar’s bowl advisor. Most regular kids either got pointed down the street to Tennessee Tech or shunted off early to the vo-tech track, whether they had aptitude for college or not.
