Thoughts on Inés Sainz/Jets Locker Room Controversy

In my opinion, Ines Sainz should never have been in the Jets locker room in the first place. No woman should be. Sound sexist? Maybe. Were the Jets players acting out-of-line? Maybe. But here's the rub: How would a woman's professional sports team feel about a male sports reporter in their locker room while they are showering and changing their clothes? I don't think they'd be thrilled. 

The point of a locker room, and the reason locker rooms are not co-ed, is privacy. And if you are willing to breach someone else's privacy, expect unfavorable consequences.
