Erin Andrews, the ESPN “it” babe who clearly isn’t afraid to flaunt it, sauntered around the visiting clubhouse, flitting from one Cubs player to another. Her skimpy outfit — designed to accentuate her, um, positives — had players leering at her. Some made lewd comments under their breath. Others giggled like 12-year-olds.
More on that later, as the scene was just one part of Bizarro Wednesday at Miller Park.
...Moments later, the blonde reporter was chatting with Alfonso Soriano. At one point, she placed her hand suggestively on Soriano’s left biceps.
Was I reading too much into all this? I don’t think so. I’ve been a paid observer for a long time ... and I wasn’t exactly the only one who noticed. As two Cubs stood near their lockers, one asked the other: “Hot? Or just attractive? Does she do anything for you?” The inquisitor then made eye contact with me as if saying — to use a term my uncle might have — “Hubba-hubba!”
This went on for at least an hour. Finally, Piniella emerged from his office, ready for his dugout media session. As he turned the corner, there was Andrews in all of her bare-legged, high-heeled, low-necklined glory.
“Hey, hey, hey! Look at this!” Piniella said, loudly and excitedly. “Are you doing a baseball game today or a modeling assignment?”

You know, I never started drinking, smoking, or doing any drugs, but I found the straight-edge bands to be tiresome and annoying, when the REALLY EARNEST kids started preaching to me. The only thing that saved Minor Threat for me was that I don't really care all that much about lyrics.
From back in that day, 7 Seconds had no equal to my ears and eyes.
Only 7 Seconds I ever listened to was the first 7". Pretty decent, but I can't say it ever made much of an impression on me. They did a decent job opening for the DKs in Phoenix in, I believe, the fall of '83, but again I wasn't blown away.
Yeah, that's true--you're from the "1.5 or so generations younger than me" generation that got to benefit from rampant skimpiness being the norm, and the entire college coed population turning into wannabe p0rn stars. Color me envious.
Yep, pretty much.
I don't know. I have a lot of friends who're about 8-12 years my junior (24-28), and it seems to me the world's changed, just based on observation.
And how's Jeter's defense, just based on Jon Sterling's observation? ;-)
Until then, I'm going to ride it hard and put it up wet.
Slutty, no.
For some men, of course, there is no difference.

women are worse than men when it comes to judging women sluts.
Exactly. If a woman is jealous of another woman who is dressed "sexily" "provocatively" "summery" whatever, she calls that woman a "slut."
Someone answer the question we all wanna know -- how many athletes has Erin Andrews ######?
Interviewed? Probably in the hundreds.
Thank you, Gene Rayburn.
p3wned again!
Damn straight Lassus. Even to this day 7 Seconds brings a smile to my face. A truly great band if only for a little while. Minor Threat and Fugazi both had their moments, but like others Ian could work my last nerve if I listened to what he was saying.
