#10Roenick, who was suspended indefinitely without pay over a month ago for making inappropriate comments about his co-workers on Barstool Sports’ Spittin’ Chiclets podcast
While appearing on the popular hockey podcast that went live on Dec. 19, Roenick recounted a trip he took to Portugal last summer with his wife and co-worker Kathryn Tappen. However, the story took a tasteless turn.
“I was the king of Portugal,” Roenick said. “When you walk into every place and you have two blond bombshells on each side … your chest pops out a lot more.”
Then he recalled when a woman approached him to ask if his wife and Tappen were both with him, to which Roenick replied, “Yes, they are.”
“And then Kathryn says, ‘Will you shut up?’ She starts yelling at me,” he continued. “I play it off like, you know, we’re going to bed together every night, the three of us. Now, if it really came to fruition, that would really be good, but it’s never going to happen.”
Later in the podcast, Roenick turned the conversation toward Patrick Sharp, a fellow hockey analyst on NBC. The conversation moved over to whether Roenick, who was teammates with Sharp during their time on the Flyers, would sleep with Sharp.
”He is so beautiful. I’d have to think about it if he asked me,” Roenick said.
“Oh God, yeah,” one host said.
“I wouldn’t say no right away,” Roenick replied.
Roenick did say positive things about both Sharp and Tappen during his time on the show, complimenting their professionalism and stating how much he enjoys working with them. But NBC announced his suspension five days later.
Tappen released a statement through an NBC spokesperson shortly after Roenick’s suspension.
“While Jeremy and I continue to be good friends, what he said was unacceptable,” she said. “Especially among workplace colleagues. I do not condone his comments.”
Roenick joined NBC Sports in 2010 as a studio analyst, appearing on NBC Sports Group’s NHL coverage on NHL Live and NHL Overtime, NBCSN’s pregame and postgame shows. He also served as a men’s and women’s Olympic hockey studio analyst at the last three Winter Olympics.Comment -

#12Yeah that's terrible. I mean like he meant he wanted to sleep with Sharp, right?
Not. Just a funny guy being goofy.
Very weak letting him go for this, but I guess she went full on freak show about it and with the me too movement and all that networks have to cover their asses.Comment -

#18The only people who would label him a hero for that are men who have sex with other men. The only people who think People magazine would give him a cover for that are men who have sex with other men.Comment -

#30I'm a big fan of both Roenick and Kathryn Tappen. She had a choice, but unfortunately for JR she chose those terrorists in the #MeToo movement. She could've laughed it off and saved her friend's arse.Comment -
