Reporter TJ Moe has doubled down following accusations of misogyny on the back of a controversial tweet he shared on the weekend.
Moe is apparently not a fan of females analyzing football games and indicated as much while taking in the weekend’s college championship fixtures.
“Who actually wants to watch three women stand around and talk about football? I do not” he declared, adding a photo of three females holding mics, presumably discussing SEC affairs.
Of course, the tweet attracted some backlash. But, instead of taking it down and apologizing, Moe threw fuel on the blaze with the following:
“This tweet upset some folks, so let me clarify:
“No one wants to listen to 3 women talk football. Men are better at it— it’s like asking cats to bark. I issue no apology and no retracts. Most people agree with me, they’re just afraid to say it. Carry on with your outrage.”
While there was plenty of criticism in the comments, there were actually many women who agreed with TJ, prompting him to go even harder.
“It seems most of the people outraged over this are obscure female sideline reporters and hosts that you’ve never heard of (and a few that you have) and the guys who are hoping to sleep with them someday. Virtually everyone else agrees.”
Who Is TJ Moe?
TJ Moe spent some time in the NFL after being signed as an undrafted free agent by the New England Patriots out of Missouri in 2013. He suffered an Achilles tear during the team’s OTAs and was eventually released.
The former wideout joined the then-St. Louis Rams after the Patriots waived him but got the axe as part of the first round of cuts.
Moe is now a co-host on St. Louis-based sports radio show, ‘The Hardline’, and is a frequent contributor on Jason Whitlock’s ‘Fearless’ on Blaze Media.

Angel Reese recently discussed the abuse she’s had to endure amid her WNBA rookie season, thanks to fans of Caitlin Clark.
The first-year stars are locked in a rivalry at the moment, whether they want to be or not. They have both said on multiple occasions that there’s zero animosity between them, yet Reese claims she has been dealing with a lot because Clark’s fans refuse to leave her alone.
The Chicago Sky forward made it clear that the former Iowa star has nothing to do with the racism and abuse she has been facing, but fans have been taking things way too far in showing support for the Indiana Fever guard.
“Caitlin is an amazing player and I’ve always thought she was an amazing player. We’ve been playing each other since high school,” Reese said during the first episode of her new podcast ‘Unapologetically Angel.’
“So I think it’s really just the fans — her fans, the Iowa fans, now the Indiana fans — that are, like, they ride for her and I respect that, respectfully, but sometimes it’s very disrespectful. I think there’s a lot of racism when it comes to it and I don’t believe she stands on any of that.”

Angel Reese Dealing With Death Threats And Fake AI Content
Reese also revealed having experienced death threats, as well as people creating nude AI photos of her and sending them to her family.
“But when it comes to death threats, like, I’m talking about people have come down to my address, following me home, it’s come down to that,” she added. “Multiple occasions, people have made AI pictures of me naked, literally. They have sent it to my family members.
“My family members are, like, uncles are sending it to me, like, ‘Are you naked on Instagram?’ It sucks to see that, and it’s really hard that I have to go through that, and now seeing other players even having to go through that.”
The former college rivals are now fighting for the Rookie of the Year Award. But only one of them has clinched a playoff berth so far, with the Fever locking their spot in for the first time since 2016.
VIDEOS: Everyone Is Calling For Major Suspension Of Chiefs Player In Street Clothes Who Pulled A “Big Dom” During Ugly Sideline Moment With Ravens’ Roquan Smith
A forgotten moment in an eventful NFL season opener between the Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs occurred early in the fourth quarter when Patrick Mahomes was running to the sidelines and was hit by Ravens linebacker Roquan Smith.
As Mahomes ran out of bounds on third-and-3, which resulted in a first down, the Ravens linebacker contacted him, and he went down to the ground. However, no penalty was thrown.
Footage from the play showed somebody not in uniform taking took exception to the contact and shoved Roquan Smith from behind, leading to a small skirmish.
Something similar happened last year when Big Dom from the Eagles found himself suspended after the Week 13 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, where DiSandro found himself in the spotlight for his quick physical altercation with Niners linebacker Dre Greenlaw on the Philly sideline.
Fans quickly took to the comments and demanded the unknown member to be suspended.
It turns out that person on the sideline was tight end Peyton Hendershot.
It remains to be seen if the league will step in and do anything to him.
Roquan Smith Sends Stern Message To Chiefs Player That Pushed Him On Sideline
Baltimore Ravens linebacker Roquan Smith took exception to him being pushed and had a warning postgame for Kansas City Chiefs tight end Peyton Hendershot.
During the Ravens’ loss to the Chiefs to kick off the new NFL season, there was a moment where Kansas City’s star quarterback Patrick Mahomes was scrambling to pick up a first down and headed toward the sideline.
Roquan Smith pushed Mahomes late, and the quarterback went down to the ground.
Smith, who was waving his hands, said Mahomes tried to sell it as a penalty.
“Oh, he flopped. Yeah, he flopped,” Smith told reporters postgame, per Fox News. “That’s why the referees didn’t call it – it was a great no-call by the ref.”
As he was waving his hands, Hendershot, who was in street clothes as an inactive player, got in Roquan Smith’s face and pushed him.
