Ines Sainz (PICTURES): Reporter Calls New York Jets "Rude"

NEW YORK (CBS/AP) Sportscaster Ines Sainz says the type of behavior displayed by the New York Jets during a practice on Saturday is nothing new.

While the veteran reporter, who has worked for the Mexican network TV Azteca for over nine years, has generally downplayed the incident, she did tell CBS News' "The Early Show" that she had previously been hassled on the job, but never as rudely as during her Jets locker room visit.

"I have similar reactions in a different kind of sports. But, never, the vocabulary never so rude," Sainz told the morning show. She said she believes other members of the media were most upset by "the vocabulary they used to refer to me."

On "The Early Show," Sainz said that the minute she walked into the locker room, everyone started talking about her and making jokes.

She said, "I decided not to pay attention. I was focusing on my interview so I go direct to the locker of room of Mr. Sanchez and I wait for him" - she was there for a story on quarterback Mark Sanchez - "But I believe that the rest of the media start to hear the different kind of things that I didn't hear. And sometime in a minute, a colleague [said], 'Come with me, and I'm so sorry...It's terrible. I feel sorry for you.' So I tried to say, 'Don't worry, I can handle the situation.' And that's it. And I don't even try to pay attention."

In addition to the locker room language, Sainz had also had footballs thrown in her direction during a Jets practice.

Sainz says she trusts the NFL and believes they will take the appropriate action in regard to the incident.

by patycool September 18, 2010 3:10 PM EDT: I kind of wonder if they would have harassed her no matter what she wore. I could see that sort of thing happening with someone who is all buttoned-up, too. I wouldn't wear that outfit but I also think the men should be held accountable for their lousy behavior,By the way I found a website that give you prizes for your opinions here is the topic about this: http://opinion.ezwingame.com/topics/was-reporter-ines-sainz-abused-by-the-ny-jets; Reply to this comment

What was she doing in the locker room in the first place? I think Mark Sanchez should go wait for her in her changing room to finish the interview. Locker room interviews are ridiculous, and obviously for the benefit of women audiences. No hetero man wants to see another sweaty man changing and walking around in a towel... Non-team personel should not be allowed in there. That's why they have press tents.

by tmm2594 September 30, 2010 7:36 PM EDT: You're right. Women do not belong in the locker room. No one belongs in the locker room but players, staff, etc. Wait for your damn story in the press room. I personally do not think the token women reporters that every friggin sports news station has provide anything worth listening to anyway.

by beachboy51971 September 15, 2010 5:27 PM EDT: Come on people....there are ALWAYS ladies like this in the locker rooms....she's not the first or the last. This is not new. What we DON'T know is what these guys said to her or about her. Saying "nice ass" is one thing, and I doubt she'd care about that, but saying more crude things is a different matter. She did not bring this attention upon herself....if you watched the interview she actually says she's not too worried about it, she wasn't hurt, just felt uncomfortable. She has been doing this for 9 years. She said many times it's the NFL's decision to take any action on the players for comments, she is not demanding any action. So many people on this forum need to chill out and realize the men/women thing is the way it is, but sometimes it gets out of hands, and both men and women can be ***** sometimes, and they need to be held responsible - depending on WHAT WAS SAID.; Reply to this comment


by Jennelita September 15, 2010 5:08 PM EDT: Ines Sainz is "CRAVING FOR ATTENTION"! She is in the wrong profession as I concluded looking at her pictures including one where she is completed NAKED! A professional reporter will be never wearing something that shows half of her boobs and very tight jeans to accentuate her "behind". Very bad judgment choosing that outfit to interview all this ***** men in the locker rooms. I don't know if in Mexico this is acceptable but here in America this is seen as not professional (by her part) and harrasment (by the players). Not women should be allowed in men's locker rooms and not men should be allowed in women's locker rooms, period(.!); Reply to this comment

by tegeagent007 September 15, 2010 11:20 AM EDT: I believe that she has done 5 or 6 interviews from the 3 networks and 3 cable news outlets. With each interview, her story seems to change. Once, she says she was embarrassed and offended. In another, she says, that she didn't hear anything and wasn't aware of what if anything any of the Jets were saying. Will the real Ines please stand up. Because, this looks nothing but an attention getter and a desire for publicity. I think the owner of the Jets should not have appoligized until he had all the facts. There is no evidence as to what gestures were made, what was said, and who said it. Why isn't the anonomous reporter coming forward and providing specifics and naming names. This immature woman has had more than enough of publicity. On the news station in Mexico, she dresses in skimpy outfits bending over the stool without even crossing her legs. Here, it seems like she intentionally tweeted a pic of her back side showing her jeans which appear to have be glued to her butt. This is her signature. Her way of getting attention and maybe an interview with an athlete. She's a tease. She has no respect for herself and obviously none for all the serious women reporters who work hard in this profession. She flirts with the athletes and literally rides on their backs. She has no respect for herself, but more importantly, she has no respect for her husband. And what kind of a role model is she for her 3 young children. I think, she's waiting for a call from Playboy's Hugh Hefner. This immature woman desparately needs a reality check. To this point, I think that it's the Jets that are the victims of her behavior. I've been around for 62 years and have seen tragedy come out of situations when girls act and dress this way, whether it's on the football field, in some club, or bar. I've seen woman that are just asking for it. I believe that the NFL, at the very least, should institute a dress code and someone who dresses like Ines should not be allowed at practice or to conduct interviews. In reality, I strongly believe that women should not be allowed in the locker room with Jocks coming out of the shower or walking around with towels on. Set up a small interview room or use the coach's office to do an interview. She obviously provoced any gestures or comments which at this point haven't even been proven. I also don't have much respect for women who insist on going into the locker room knowing that man are walking around naked. There is something wrong with that kind of a mindset.; Reply to this comment


by drvazquez1997 September 15, 2010 10:05 AM EDT: I was watching the report on TV by Erica Hill and I think the question about "properly dress" is completely out of place. The subject of been "properly dress" is OLD and we know is not acceptable under any circumstance.

As an example, if a woman is wearing a mini-skirt and she is sexually harassed, or even raped, then we can say ?oh well she was asking for it".

That is ridiculous!!

Yes, harassment exists everywhere but that doesn?t mean is acceptable just because you are wearing specific clothing and people, and in this case the players, should be punished.; Reply to this comment


by jerremy0808 September 15, 2010 8:31 AM EDT: Is this not like the first time someone suing a fast food chain for not putting a hot coffee label on a cup of hot coffee? This is a setup and it is a regrettable waste of time. Her jeans looked painted on from the angle I viewed on tv. Fresh off a win and the increased adrenalin and testosterone streaming in these athletes bodies sending in an attractive woman scantily dressed is unfair. And for the people who think Mrs Sainz is a victim you obviously don't watch the morning show where all the women dress professional and not showing off their butts or sneaky shots of cleavage. When you wake up dress and look in mirror and think "OH I am so cute". You are going to recieve attention from other men either in a locker room or otherwise so please stop torturing men for noticing beautiful women especially when they are in good physical shape and wearing tight articles of clothing.; Reply to this comment
