After looking at my RSS feed for the Oakland Raiders from my custom google homepage, I clicked on the link to the unread article.  Who was to be the author again, none other than Gregg himself.  I wrote an article a few weeks back stating my disdain for his words against Oklahoma women as if he personally insulted someone I knew.  Well reading this article made me feel a little better about our state and the people in it.  Here is the an exerpt from his article (at the top I may add) about his statement regarding the Tulsa Talon cheerleaders:Noting the attractiveness of the Tulsa Talons’ cheerleaders, yours truly quipped, “These women cannot seriously be from Oklahoma, they must fly them in.” Many rose to defend the beauty, if not necessarily the honor, of Oklahoma women. Robert Stewart of Muskogee wrote, “Oklahoma has more than its fair share of beautiful women. Here, behold the current Miss America from Jenks, Oklahoma, Jennifer Berry.” In her Platform Statement, Berry declares, “I have worked with thousands of Oklahoma students of every age.” Thousands, and she’s only 22! Chris Cotner reports there have been five Miss America winners from Oklahoma. Joy Kellun of Oklahoma City writes that the Tulsa-born director of the Talons’ cheerleader squad has a postmodern name, Chance. TMQ adds that Chance, in her bio, lists her occupation as “cheerleader director, secretary and full-time student.”

I am glad to see others were annoyed by his remarks which were obviously not backed by any evidence (or if so he must have went to some random small town and met like 3 people).  Having lived in Los Angeles, the Texas Panhandle, and Tulsa, I would have to say we have just as many beautiful women here as elsewhere.  I still want to kick Gregg in the shins.
