Rachel Nichols
Rachel Nichols is not to be confused with Rachel Nichols the skinny model/actress from “Alias” and “The Inside”. She’s the ESPN reporter known for her robotic reporting and amazing ability to not blink at all. People say there is a coldness to Rachel Nichols, but I don’t know, I think it’s kind of hot. Who doesn’t like to unleash the tiger in these seemingly cold ice queens?
Wikipedia says:
Rachel Alexander Nichols is an ESPN reporter and Page2 columnist. She has previously worked for the Washington Post and Fort Lauderdale Sun-Sentinel. Nichols attended Northwestern University.
Several blogs and other website authors have made note that Nichols rarely blinks when appearing on screen during SportsCenter. As Frank Walsh of the Huntersville Herald observed, “She is pretty and a redhead but that’s not why to check her out. She never blinks.”
Named one of Esquire Magazine’s “Women We Love,” 11/05 issue.
Nichols is married to music executive Max Nichols, and is the daughter-in-law of film director Mike Nichols, and stepdaughter-in-law of television journalist Diane Sawyer.

Very professional reporter. No nonsense. Because she is good at her job, she can get away with that god awful hair. I know she looks 14 and probably has the body of a consenting teenager, but rebel rave professional appearance is a turn off.
Im not big on a chick who dies her hair fire red, acts cold, yet probably as a big ole tatoo on her privates.
Red hair and chameleon like behavior is a real turn off. This chick is overrated.

so hotttt

You’ve got to be kidding. She’s got absolutely ZERO talent. She’s clearly memorized everything she reports “on site.” How is that reporting. Listen to what she says at NFL sites. It’s nothing but regurgitation of that particular cities local media coverage. She’s worthless and not all that attractive!

I thought she just did nba games, but I could of swore I just saw her , on the field after the new england patriots beat the new york jets, It looked like she was about to interview lawrence maroney, I think she’s alright, not in the same class as Erin Andrews, but she’s a work in progress.
January 8th, 2007 at 5:10 pm
I actually got to meet and sort of spend some time with Rachel at a wedding (a friend of mine married a woman who is good friends with Rachel) so I’m not one of those guys who pretends to “know people.” I don’t know her — my friend’s wife knows her.
But she and her husband Max were very, very cool and a lot of fun. Rachel is completely different in person as compared to her onscreen personality. She strikes me as someone who wants to be taken seriously as a reporter… but in person, she’s just a fun-loving girl like anyone else. Very sweet, very down-to-Earth and very thrilled to have the career that she has.

HOT HOT!!! I’m sure she is fun loving but will she pose for Playboy???
March 20th, 2007 at 5:39 am
I think she is in a section that few women are in ie Beyonce, and Mrs. Pitt (you know that lady that adopts all those kids)

[...] on whether Erin Andrews is hot or not — to be honest, I’ve always had a weird thing for Rachel Nichols — Orson at EDSBS drops this beautiful gem culled from Michele Tafoya’s Wikipedia page. [...]
July 2nd, 2007 at 8:03 pm
[...] The Postmen “have always had a weird thing for Rachel Nichols” too? That’s messed up; I thought I was the only one with a completely weird R-Nick [...]

She used to go on Kornheiser’s ESPN radio show for tennis updates and such and she was great at it. She is much looser on the radio than on tv, that’s for sure. Very hot radio voice.
July 11th, 2007 at 6:04 pm
If she is fun-loving and cool off camera; Rachel needs to bring that and she needs to stop being so serious. It is a turn-off. I heard she has a tatoo on her left arm and her neck which is why she parts her hair that way. Bring out and show some fun. News are all lies; GM and coaches tell you bull anyway; that is true with news.
July 15th, 2007 at 1:34 am
Not only is Rachel a top professional in her field, but she is the most beautiful woman that I’ve ever seen. (I Love Her Red Flaming Hair, Great Smile, Warm Personality and Her True Dedication to the Job). She does an excellent job interviewing, reporting the sports news and giving the fans exactly what they want. I would hire her in a heart beat. In fact, just writing this about her makes my heart beat even faster. Are you single Rachel? Keep up the great work.
August 15th, 2007 at 12:28 am
She is a ULTRA HOTTIE! Ya she is a great reporter blah blah blah…She’s HOT!!! And that auburn hair! Ahhhhh!
August 15th, 2007 at 3:22 pm
She is beautifullll. Those hazel eyes with the fire red hair. You guys may be into the sausage if you don’t think she’s hot. She does a great job giving us the sports news. What the hell do you people want? You want her to stand on her head and give us the news? Dorks. This chick rocks. I know it and you know it too. Stop drinking the haterade.
August 25th, 2007 at 1:09 am
Why has no one taken the time to take a decent picture of this person? I swear these are the only photos of her ever, and they do not do her justice at all.
She’s awesome at her job, but imagine her on SportsCenter. Talk about a buzz kill.
August 30th, 2007 at 1:52 pm
Anyone ever see a picture of Rachel Nichols from below the waist? It sure makes me wonder how that never happens, even by accident. I suspect she must be sensitive about something not quite matching up with the face.
September 30th, 2007 at 11:25 am
The hottest part about her, and I’ve been saying this to my friends since we first noticed her, is the way she signs off ‘I’m Rachel Nichols, ESPN’…The way she mouths ESPN is hot and then she gets this smirk on her face right after…it’s not just HOT, it’s SEXY
October 7th, 2007 at 12:05 pm
i rather look at her reporting at the sidelines that some ex football player that cant speak proper english or a tony cornheiser blah…he sucks
October 8th, 2007 at 9:53 am
Without question the hottest anchor on ESPN, totally hot body and very sexy look about her.
October 17th, 2007 at 4:31 am
Davan Mini, to say something like “News are all lies; GM and coaches tell you bull anyway; that is true with news” is absurd and possibly one of the least insightful things I’ve ever heard. You’re not in the locker rooms and can’t possibly have fact to back up that statement.
I don’t think anyone on this site really has much room to criticize her. I would imagine that we aren’t all employed as reporters. That being said, she obviously is very good at what she does. Otherwise she would not have found work at the Washington Post, let alone ESPN.
October 21st, 2007 at 3:05 am
she is overehearsed. sounds like too much of a robot and dont like a thing about her. learn to be authentic
October 26th, 2007 at 8:50 am
Gorgeous - absolutely sexy, very unique. Always gets and holds my attention.
December 6th, 2007 at 3:16 pm
Totally overrated and annoying!!!!! I hate how she says E.S.P.ANN! Too hard to say “N” apparently! The only reason we are subject to her on t.v is because she is married to a music producer and related to Diane Sawyer! Nepitism is annoying and why we are force feed these types of people!
December 7th, 2007 at 6:32 pm
I’d rather bone Linda Cohn.
December 8th, 2007 at 12:02 pm
Rachel nichols is hot!!!!!!!!
December 15th, 2007 at 1:54 am
I like to go by her desk in Bristol when she is on assignment and sniff her chair, ahhhhhhh.
December 15th, 2007 at 11:37 am
i didn’t know she doesn’t blink …… when she first started, she used to say “e s p m” …..
December 28th, 2007 at 11:17 am
“I’m Rachel Nipples…ESPN!”
I cannot stand when she comes on. She must have nothing but a pre-written script for her, all of the time. She does every take of every event THE SAME EXACT WAY, with no personality.
The way she signs off is, what I mentioned at the top. It sounds and looks like she says
E-S-P-Meow! Like a cat with bad fried red hair.
She tries very hard, but does every take the same, like a dark-pink-haired ROBOT. She might be hot without all of those clothes [blazer/etc.] she covers herself with, but it’s not worth it.
She will probably end up staying on ESPN, as she does exactly what they want her to do. The same performance everytime, and she can be programmed.
Robotic…Robotic…try to be yourself! That’s the true recipe to being a success in the TV/Radio World!
—Cheers!
December 28th, 2007 at 11:43 am
Honestly, I have never been a redhead fan - but Rachel just has something going for her that exudes sex appeal. At the same time, I think she would be up for a beer at the local pub! Keep up the good work Rachel - you have some serious fans!!
December 29th, 2007 at 2:17 am
Check out Rachel’s hair… Every single time she reports (you’ll notice in the pics above and anytime you see her) that her hair is always down and the left side is always in front and the right is behind her shoulder… It is beyond coincidence and must be planned - it confuses the heck out of me and if anyone has any inside info please do share
January 3rd, 2008 at 10:01 am
Fairly attractive . Robotic , no personality . Clearly got her job through family not talent . But of all that she would be great on remake of wizard of oz as wicked witch . Come on with a nose like that who else could she be . Get a nose job or go to radio .
January 9th, 2008 at 1:34 am
By far the hottest ESPN chick. I can’t wait to meet her at the fifty yard line some late drunken night. And I love the way she tilts and cocks her head when she says “This is Rachel Nichols foe E S P N”. Friggin’ HOT!!!
January 11th, 2008 at 4:45 am
I agree with Chris, Rachel is hot & sexy when she smirks the ESPN sign off. If you don’t like Rachel, you need to get your mind right. If you do not know facts about how she got her job, you need to be quiet. Do not assume anything. I am sure she worked her butt off to be at ESPN. Nepotism (not Nepitism KB) is a strong word. Spell it right before you use it.
January 14th, 2008 at 7:05 pm
rachel nichols is the best sideline reporter on television. She always has great inside info and does great work on radio when asked to do so. I love her red hair and the way she does her sign off of ESPN! She did not get her job through nepotism as she is NOT related to Diane Sawyer. She married into the family and already had her Washington Post job. This is why she got hired by ESPN. Long live R Nicks!
January 16th, 2008 at 8:16 pm
what the hell r u talking about she is sooo hottt
she is the best looking sideline reporter ever she is gorgeous and her hair makes her even hotter. i think she is really beautiful and who cares if she had a tatoo that would hot she is truly a godess.
January 19th, 2008 at 1:36 am
I have to be honest I pay attention to her and what she says. I find nothing wrong with it. Every reporter on ESPN or on televison for that matter have certain tendancies. There are a lot of annoying reporters etc. on ESPN but still manage to have some personality from time to time. Stuart Scott is corny with his fake “I’m down” lines… he tries to be act like he’s so hip-hop when he pronounces all of his words or he would say “lingo” like a complete dork. It’s like Carlton Banks is on ESPN… However, he is necessary and I have no problem w/ his corny ways cuz he has some enlighten moments too. So why judge Rachel she’s cool to me. Besides I’m thinking of bonin her half the time when I see her on t.v… soon as I hear her name I look at her and imagine if she has a nice rack or round juicy a##… that’s my main goal everytime I see her is to hopefully see if she really has a sexy a## or nice boobs. She is no dime but she is undeniably SEXY as all hell… Nice lips and sex apeal w/out trying. She has to be a great lay like Hawaii!!
Yummy!
January 22nd, 2008 at 7:01 am
What happened to good ole testosterone generated comments, like “its ok to blink Rachel; sure she is smart, but she is damn good looking too, and when she blinks I will kiss her.

January 28th, 2008 at 12:20 am
has anyone noticed that when Rachel is signing off with “this Rachel Nichols of ESPN” that she does the little head shake thing AND smirks?
February 5th, 2008 at 3:50 am
Rachel Nichols - very hot, very sexy. Looks like she could be a handful in bed. Rumor is that she has tattoos on both arms, thus is always seen in long sleeves. A real pistol if you ask me.

March 8th, 2008 at 10:16 pm
rachel nichols is tiny, I could hold her up with one arm and change from espn to espn2 with the other arm
May 17th, 2008 at 10:04 am
Jevon Kearse was dating Rachel a few years back! You know he was laying a donkey dick on that poor little thing!!
May 20th, 2008 at 9:24 am
she needs a nose job….check it out on E60….wow
May 22nd, 2008 at 6:04 pm
Rachel is scorching hot with the red hair and beautiful green eyes. She is a 1st class spinner who is probably a tad slutty behind closed doors. I am shocked at guys who don’t dig her.
May 28th, 2008 at 3:18 pm
that robotic, cold thing is what makes her soooo hot! and a decent reporter….but thats like reading the articles in playboy.
Anyway, i am not surprised guys dont like her…i consider her one of my not so obvious “you-know-who-i-think-is-hot?” chicks. Like in 40yr old virgin when Seth Rogan reveals that he thought Gina was the hottest.
May 28th, 2008 at 6:35 pm
She’s decent.I like Bonnie Bernstein a whole lot more.
May 29th, 2008 at 9:12 pm
If you’re into smoking redheads do a Google Image search for Simone Simons, lead singer for the band Epica. She is young and puts Rachel Nichols to shame!!
June 9th, 2008 at 1:36 am
Wow, everyone here is thinking with their crotch… Do you know how much older Max is than her… clearly this ditz got her job with ESPN based on how well she “sucked” up to people, and the connections she made through her sugar daddy music executive (and step-mom in law — DIANE FREAKING SAWYER!)… lol this girl is a joke.
July 20th, 2008 at 2:33 am
I want to bone the living shit out of Rachel. Yes.
July 24th, 2008 at 11:55 pm
This chick is smokin hot!!!
August 1st, 2008 at 10:44 am
She is damn hot. i bet shes a real handful in bed too. i dont even listen to her on t.v. i just want to get a good look at her body. the things id do to her!
August 1st, 2008 at 6:10 pm
NO FRIGGIN’ WAY. THIS CHICK HAS THE MOST ANNOYING VOICE ON TV. HANDS DOWN!!!
I CAN’T STAND HER COMMERCIALS. HER FRIGG’N VOICE IS OVERDONE. TOO MUCH ACTING.
AND, SHE HAS A HUGE ASS. SHE WILL NOT LET THE CAMERA FILM IT.
August 6th, 2008 at 3:27 am
rachel nichols is very sexy. i seen the episode of e60 where she interviewed the black dude that was sexually harassing his gymnastics students and when she walked into the building there is a nice shot of her ass
August 7th, 2008 at 5:40 pm
Rachel is HOT. I had to look her up after seeing her reporting on the Brett Favre thing. Somebody really does need to take some better pictures of her, but video is where she shines, the way her mouth moves, gives me a woodie. I’d like to see that big ass, too.
September 11th, 2008 at 6:08 am
[...] only redhead to make it into the group. Nichols has a huge following of fans and athletes [...]
September 16th, 2008 at 5:48 pm
No.1, it doesn’t matter to me who Rachel Nichols is or what part of the country she is from or anything like that,ESPN, just don’t let her go as you have so many others!
September 30th, 2008 at 10:03 am
I first noticed Rachel Nichols when she broke onto ESPN by covering the Pistons’ NBA Championship season oh so many years ago. My friends and i all had a crush on her and it made us want to watch the coverage all the more.
Now, i will watch that lame E60 just to see her “probe” some poor shmuck about mindless sports news.
She’s awesome. And hot.
October 1st, 2008 at 10:55 am
The absolute hottest reporter today. Every time she comes on the TV I stop everything I’m doing and watch her report. Beautiful lips and face. Marry me Rachel!!!
October 14th, 2008 at 11:51 am
I think Rachael is wonderful. I wish we could see her more often on the air.
October 19th, 2008 at 9:48 am
Rachel, I have always enjoyed your reports…everytime you seem to be getting more and more relaxed with your reports. I love to see your body movements as you talk…your shoulder movements as you talk and how your lips pout with each time you speak…YOU ARE NOT ONLY SPORTS KNOWLEGDGEABLE BUT VERY GORGEOUS…..TOM
October 19th, 2008 at 11:34 am

December 1st, 2008 at 2:25 pm
When Rachel Nichols is reporting the latest story on ESPN,s he does it with seriousness in her voice- the mark of a good reporter.
December 1st, 2008 at 4:38 pm
Rachel Nichols is the prettiest sideline reporter in sports(sorry Michelle, Suzy, etc.)and that flaming red hair makes me hot for her.
December 1st, 2008 at 4:42 pm
Rachel Nichols is the prettiest sideline reporter in sports and if I Wwere an NFL player I’d want to be oon the sidelines with her.
