You can't spell s-e-x-i-s-t without "Fox News," or something...

It's another day and there's another story about sexist commentary made by male talking heads on Fox News.

On Monday, Major Mariam Al Mansouri, the first female pilot in the United Arab Emirates' Air Force, was reportedly a team leader in the airstrikes against ISIS in Syria. So, what did co-hosts of the Fox News show, The Five, have to say about this? Oh, just the following:

Kimberly Guilfoyle: "Hey ISIS, you were bombed by a woman... Oh yeah, hell came down on ISIS ins Syria because -- guess what -- the first female pilot, piloting for the UAE, leading the strikes. Dropped the bombs on ISIS on Monday night... I'll take a woman doing this any day to them. I hope that hurt extra bad because in some Arab countries, women can't even drive."

Greg Gutfeld: "After she bombed it, she couldn't park it."

Eric Bolling: "Would that be considered boobs on the ground or no?"

:: the two men laugh, Guilfoyle puts her head into her hand ::

Guilfoyle: "Why did they ruin my thing?"

It's a shame Kimberly Guilfoyle handled her co-hosts' sexism so calmly. If I had been in her shoes, I would have responded in the following manner:

Greg Gutfeld: "After she bombed it, she couldn't park it."

Kimberly Guilfoyle: "Did you just bomb in your pants or just forget to shower again?"


Eric Bolling: "Would that be considered boobs on the ground or no?"

Kimberly Guilfoyle: "Would that be considered a little smokey in your pants or no?"

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...
