Yesterday was Media Day for the Patriots and Giants, the annual circus where players and coaches alike usually end up answering dumb questions posed by journalists from around the world. Case in point: a female “reporter” from Spanish-language station TV Azteca wore a wedding gown to the event and proposed marriage to several players, including NE quarterback Tom Brady.
Yeah, thanks a lot. I’m sure that will help average fans take female sportswriters and analysts more seriously. Why was that person even allowed anywhere near the podiums when event staffers saw what she was wearing?
Anyway, Matt Mosley and Mike Sando of the ESPN Hashmarks blog helped cover the event, and posted tons of entries about the various goings on.

That photo of the TV Azteca journalist was originally posted on the Hashmarks blog, but I don’t know which one of the guys snapped it.
