I only caught a minute of his show today. He said he and his listeners made a website crash in less than 90 seconds. Said it was a "sports journalism" website.

What was it, anybody know?
 
I did hear the part where Cowherd said he didn't do anything about the death of Eddie Robinson because he doesn't do history, that history's for "the professors and the Learning Channel" and that his job is to "entertain."
Yes, history can't be entertaining. That's why David McCulloch and Ken Burns are selling apples on the sidewalk.
Tool.

Cowherd needs to have his ass beat. Repeatedly.

He spends more time than any talk-show host explaining why he doesn't talk about something. If, instead, he spent that time talking about the subject, he'd actually be adding something to his show.
 
Yeah, it's kind of silly, but it's an interesting experiment.
 
Got to agree, Colin's like that smart-ass kid in junior high who everybody was waiting to get his ass kicked.

Of course, I feel the same way about J.T. Talk about speaking down to your audience.

Finally.
A bipartisan proposal.
 
I caught that little snip while scanning past stations. I wondered if I had missed a crash, too.

And, as a matter of disclosure, I like listening to Cowherd most of the time. Not all the time, but most of the time. He beats the hell out of Dan Patrick, the local goofs or most everything else in terms of sports radio.

So count me, again, as against the norm here -- as if that's a scarlet letter. ;)

Edit: so it was The Big Lead, eh?

Hey, I'm all about fellowship.
 
And, in fact, it seems to have worked. If you really wanted to read the The Big Lead today, you might have to wait a bit.

Hey, I listen to Cowherd too (although not to the first hour now that Mister Tony is back on XM).

But I DO find myself staring at the radio quite often and saying out loud, "What an ass you are."

This is off topic but Mrs. Armchair saw Tony on TV the other day and asked me why he always looks like a hobo.

Yeahhhh. If I have the car without the XM, it's the only sports talk on the drive home. But I just CAN'T listen to him. I want to punch the radio.
