I have no idea if she’s any good, which probably means she’s failed in attracting me as a reader. I guess I have no interest in reading a “just the facts” blog.

WTF! You’re acting like a bunch of closet cases.

Wow. This is supposed to be a discussion about how she is covering the Red Sox — in print, online and on television. Instead, it’s about her facial structure and choice of top? I’d like to see this kind of thread talking about what Mike Lynch chooses to wear, or what Gordon Edes looks like while he’s on the pregame show. Pretty disgraceful.

Interesting that when it comes to the women, the men judge her not on her journalistic skills but on her appearance. That’s not right. She’s good. And I doubt she went to J-school planning to be on TV all the time. That’s the new media. Keep up the good work, A.

Are you guys out of your freaking minds? Amalie Benjamin is attractive? I guess if you like chicks with a huge head, small glasses and “big girl” arms, then she’s your kinda gal. And gotta agree with Looky Lou, she’s as analytical as Tim McCarver or Joe Morgan.

She’s smart and beautiful. Just like Remy.

I actually like the youth injection she brings to the globe staff and I don’t mind the “different” blogging style that she has. Nothing wrong with a fresh take, as long as she is being professional. I also think that people shouldn’t be so harsh to judge her now. Let’s see where she is in another year or two.

Nothing special, just ANOTHER talking head…THIS one thinks THIS…THAT one thinks THAT… BLAH, BLAH,BLAH, YADA,YADA,YADA….There are just WAY TOO MANY of these Gum Flappers on the Boston Sports scene. Whatever they say goes in one ear and out the other. Actually I try to avoid them and just watch THE GAME. They know no more than me and you.

Terrible … obviously only hired by the politically-correct Globe because she’s a girl (yes, I used the term “girl,” not “woman,” just to annoy you feminists out there).

Offers zero insight, writes OK but with no knowledge of baseball, blogs like a teenager. The absolute definition of a quota hire.

While the Herald went out and hired real baseball writers, the Globe offers us this?
