That's all well and good MB, but don't you realize that according to some on here, the IQ and intelligence of a woman is inextricably linked to the shape of her @rse and the size of her t1ts... and whether or not someone would consider doing the deed with her?meher baba wrote:Caro is good at what she does. She's not an expert on the technical aspects of the game and doesn't pretend to be so. She reports on the human and professional relationships of the AFL world, drawing on observed behaviour and private gossip.
A paper once published a photo of a young Caro, and she looked pretty tasty to me. Like many of us (and I'm sure many of you) she hasn't aged especially well. So bloody what. I might be being a bit unfair in accusing some of those posters who dump endlessly on Gwilt and Raph of racism, but the only way of describing negative statements about Caro's appearance is to call them what they are: "sexism".
As for Caro's predictions at the start of the season, she wasn't too far off the mark re Carlton (who I still reckon are running neck and neck with the Lions for 4th spot at the end of 22 rounds).
Yes, she was wrong about Richmond. But she's a Tigers supporter. I was wrong about the Saints in 2006 and 2007: I thought we'd make the GF in both of those seasons. I'm sure many of you were too. On the scale of stupid things written by journos about AFL, Caro's prediction that the Tigers would finish ahead of the Saints this year doesn't even appear on the radar screen for mine.
And I had the Tigers in my top 8 at the start of this year. They have been profoundly disappointing.
So lay off Caro.
What's wrong with you man? How dare you stray from the vocal majority's constant sexist slagging off of the woman!
