Come on Boys, Girls can play too!

So I did something today that is rather out of the ordinary for me. I applied for a radio host position. Not just any radio host position but one on 950 KJR, the all sports station. I know what you’re saying, “but Britt you are not a man, you don’t drink beer, and although you have sports knowledge you don’t follow it close.” All of which I would agree, however, my question to you is why not? I mean, what do I really have to lose? Besides, in my opinion, I would be great at it, and here is why.

1. Although, yes I love fashion and am more on the “girly” side, I am often told I think more like a man.

2. I am more sarcastic than most. Yes, partially it runs in the family, but people seem to think its funny, if not insulting, which is sometimes funny, admit it. When I worked in the sports bar men loved my sarcasm. Plus I don’t look all that bad in a football jersey, which in my fashionable opinion is a plus.

3. Why not have a girl as a host, and more importantly why not it be me? Erin Andrews has paved the way for women in sports and she did it still being herself. Plus I have a journalism degree, public relations experience, I learn quickly and I actually can throw a baseball overhand really quite well.

I know this is a strange idea, but I feel what knowledge I have of sports mixed with what I could learn and my dedication would make me a great host. Come on boys, let's have a little diversity in the sports world. Besides I already have a jersey with my name on it.

Until next time…….
