Swifties Have Bone To Pick With Sportscaster


Sportscaster Al Michaels has landed himself in the cross hairs of Taylor Swift fans on social media following his comments on NFL's Thursday Night Football broadcast.

According to The Daily Mail, Michaels, appearing on the Amazon coverage Thursday, seemingly implied that Swift was only popular among teenage girls following an announcement regarding the singer's new album.

'You have four sons, if you had a daughter she would be over the moon,' Michaels told Kirk Herbstreit in the booth. 

'I have a granddaughter and she's completely over the moon right now… nobody more popular among the teenage girl group than Taylor Swift.'

The 32-year-old singer has won 11 Grammys over the course of her musical career. The majority of Swift's music has been centered around the pain of relationships, growing up and experiencing life. 

Fan reaction seemed to be along a very similar line of thinking with one fan tweeting, 'Hearing Al Michaels insinuate that boys can’t be excited for new Taylor Swift and shaking my head the whole time to show that I don’t agree with it.'

Another Tweet read: 'All respect to Al Michaels, but dudes can be Taylor Swift fans, too.'

One more added: 'I am secure enough in my manhood to admit I am PUMPED for Taylor Swift’s new album. Gonna be blasting Midnights on repeat.'
