How many 400 lb 57 year old men have a platform?
Look, I *despise* when people are given platforms because of lies. Cynthia Frelund at NFL.com sure comes to mind. She jumped from leading pilates classes to being the "analytics expert" at NFL.com, if you can imagine. Well educated woman, I know, but she's not the one crunching the numbers. And she absolutely melts down with the mic. Strong familial connections got her the gig and we all wince to watch. ESPN's Kendrick Perkins comes to mind as another first class idiot who still gets a mic.
But I believe in giving people a chance to prove themselves...and Mina is a legit force.
