07.02.08 WIZARDS HIT WITH SEX HARASSMENT SUIT
Kathryn Carver, a former employee of MLS's Kansas City Wizards, is suing the team for "pervasive and regular" sexual harassment. Hey, someone's gotta put the perv in pervasive, am I right? Ladies? Hello?
Along with the ownership group, Carver has included executive vice president Greg Cotton and VP of marketing Robert Thomsen Jr as defendants. Among her allegations:
• Cotton and Thomson would review the Facebook and MySpace sites of prospective female employees to determine whether they were “hot enough” to be hired.
• Cotton allegedly said of one employee, “She is the dumbest person I have ever met, but she is worth keeping around for the scenery.”
• Male employees held “drafts” of young female employees with whom they would want to have sex. [Who would do such a thing? -Ed.]
• During a team-sponsored trip to Las Vegas, Thomson told Carver she was “hot,” complimented her physical attributes and said he wanted to have sex with her, she alleged.
So… wait. Is "nice tits" no longer an acceptable workplace compliment? Because I had NO IDEA all that stuff could get you sued. Looks like I'll be working from home for the next, oh, rest of my life.

What sport is this?
I mean, honestly, Lindsay Lohan circa 2003-2004 (around Mean Girls and this SNL sketch) was fucking smoking hot.
And I dont care if she was 17. Fuck it. Look at that rack.
I remember watching that SNL without any pants on *sigh* stay off of drugs kids, especially if you got a great body and D cups.
Sean Avery thinks this kind of sexual harrassment is a waste of time
I'm taking notes, because some of those ideas are really god damn clever.
Have I missed the point here?
Male employees held “drafts” of young female employees with whom they would want to have sex.
Thats disgusting.
My co-workers and I are true gentleman. We ranked the top 20 women in our office according to attractiveness. Drafts are so low-class.
HHY- totally! That sketch was the hottest she has looked in a long time. Still I would do the used up corpse she is trolling around West Hollywood in right now as well, just saying.
That chick better not try to get a job on the Hill, because that's pretty much standard operating procedure around here. It's not a big deal since the ladies do it, too. 3 cheers for equal-opportunity ogling!
(Seriously, though, if you apply for a job and you think they don't check out your Facebook page, you don't deserve to be hired.)
I can't be the only deviant on here with a "Rachel Dratch as Harry Potter" boner right now, can I? Hello?
Smurphette - the Problem is when you start ranking members - pun obviously intended - particularly in the Senate. (Ms. Cantwell and … well I guess Lindsay Graham's the next prettiest).
@Smurphette: The Hill??? Wow!! What are Spencer and Heidi really like???
@ WDYA– +11
"Have you, um, ever come out of the bathroom without any pants on, an um, pretended that you forgot they weren't there? Because that also works."
these guys fucked up by getting too creative. never leave a paper trail, assholes. nothing beats exposing yourself to a woman or shoving a camera down her pants. then it's just your word against the whore's.
Good. I fucking hate the Wizards. I hope they rot in the cellar like the Royals until the day MLS makes them move to St. Louis. Fucking titfuckers.
Does this mean the donkey punch as a form of polite office greeting is out too?
Another perk shot to hell by "progress."
BRBR polishing broomstick
pervasive and regular sexual harassment is illegal?
Can my penis sue me?
This is what happens when you draft sixth-round talent in the second round.
Dave05, dont worry theyll follow the FCUM route of destruction
people will stop giving a fuck and go find somethign else to do
