Woman Claims Todd Walsh Melted Down Over Minor Car Accident

[Plub]

People that act as fake as him generally are pieces of ****. So I wouldn't be shocked if this is true.

 

[mouser]

I have some friends that used to work gameday for the Yotes many moons ago. They didn't have a single nice thing to say about how Walsh interacted with team employees off camera. Reputation for being quite the jerk.

Also, another reason to have a dash cam like I do.

Oh, get over yourself. You lash out way too much on this board. The lady claims racial and mysogynistic slurs were made. I agree with you that they are never called for, but I'm not taking her facebook post as gospel anyway. Let's wait for the tape to come out.

I agree with Bonsai, we may not have to forgive him but can at least understand the cause. We only know one side of the story. We dont know what she said to him to spark the anger. But if he said that, its not something that FSA should tolerate since he is in the publics eye.

I for one dont find him that annoying and after watching other "sports reporters", I have seen worse ones.

I genuinely find stuff like this interesting (in a non-patronizing way). You accept the story as true with the crash and bumping into Todd Walsh, but the what he said is suspect because it was abusive language? This photo doesn't get published without that. It's not suspect. I think it's 99.9% likely if not more that most of this is true. No video needs to come out. He will be fired.

Puts what he said about hockey players being humble last night into question. I think that stuff is basically classist if not racist.

I wouldn't jump to that conclusion either. Could all be a set up in this crazy day and age.

He may have a no movement clause with Fox and this was the only way.

He will be fired.

Doubt it. Nick Boynton still works on the radio side after what he did.

People are known to get angry when in an accident. BFD
Now if Walsh had committed murder, then that would be a big deal.

The photo seems to say, "Yeah, go ahead, take my picture. Take my ****ing picture. Want an autograph to go with? I'm famous, you know. You could sell it on eBay. You're gonna need the money, trust me." Dude looks unhinged.

Also, Feckless, you are a treasure.

Yes, but if you turn into a raging a-hole after your mirror gets clipped AND YOU DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE IT HAPPENING, that's next-level d-baggery.

This doesn't surprise me at all. Dudes creepy as ****, and he's awful at his job. Sounds like he's attending a funeral every post game.

However, that's also true of our GDTs.

 

[jacobhockey13]

His interviews will be awkward. Covering Suns games is going to be awkward as ****. I could see some players not wanting him with the team. Now that the NBA realizes the Donald Sterling look isn't great and has people in power who aren't stupid I could see some issues arising with that.

Still though, I don't think he remains unemployed. I'm woefully unknowledgeable but isn't Arizona a right-to-work state, so he can be fired? Or would FS have a clause?

I find it highly unlikely that Walsh has any sort of genuine protection clause that would shield him from losing his job. He's small potatoes.

I've found it hard to believe that they've kept him all these years.

Well then he certainly is guilty of this undocumented racist tirade.

This sounds like bull**** to me.

It looks like Walsh is getting out of the car when the photo is taken. If he was getting out of the car, then nothing has happened yet, right? Why was she photographing him? She walked up to his car, phone out snapping pictures of him? Why? By her account, there was no reason to.

The rest of the incident, Walsh is stomping around outside the car, getting up in her face ... are there pictures of that? Is there video of that? Her Facebook posts say the 911 dispatcher didn't hear any of the racist, sexist rant.

Then "he then leaves the scene of the incident racing down the street." Last chance ... picture of the car? License plate? Is this picture supposed to be Walsh, getting back into the car to race down the street? Doesn't look like it to me. Besides, she was on the phone with the police (I think ... it's poorly written narrative) at the time so probably wasn't taking pictures.

I faithfully await further details, but this sounds too much like those "I was attacked by a guy wearing a Trump hat" stories everyone was spreading on twitter the week after the election. I'll keep my torch and pitchfork where they are for the time being.

yes, AZ is a right-to-work state.

Sadly (because I'd like to hear him no more) this is what I think as well. He doesn't look angry in my opinion.

Good for humanity if true, bad for Az. sports fans.

 

[Plub]

Seems like you guys have a real loser hosting the pre game. Hopefully this incident ends his involvement with the Coyotes.

We don't get nice things like that. He'll be back.

She could have been taking a picture of the car and they just zoomed in and cropped out? Don't know.

Also, looks like she has the same lanyard that he has around his neck. Work meeting at Hooters?

Due process. Only for people I like.

Where'd I put my tar and feathers?

it's so easy to pile on.... he's such a putz!

This isn't a legal court, but rather the court of public opinion. Does anything described sound beneath Todd Walsh? Search your feelings.

We're making jokes, not sending him to the gallows. Calm down.

Above, or beneath? Again, I can't stand the guy, but find it awfully hard to believe he'd have such a tirade.
