OT: Colin Cowherd on ESPN today.
December 19th, 2014 at 10:27 PM ^
He's been reading about our ability to call out what a transparent, wanna-be sports reporter blowhard he is.
December 19th, 2014 at 10:29 PM ^
He picks his nose all the time on TV, kind of gross. He's like one of my wifes pre-schoolers.
December 19th, 2014 at 10:30 PM ^
He's a douche but Michigan's fan base is a lil creepy

Yeah, he is a douche. I listened to that piece live. I couldn't believe how little he sounded. He was mad because some UM fans called him out. He called us desperate. I guess we are a little desperate.
He thinks it is ok to stereotype. He is an ass. He can be funny. The only reason I listen to him is because he likes Brady. He loves NE.
It was a little hard to listen. I almost called him. He is a turd who will kick a man when he is down. Ass.
December 20th, 2014 at 10:17 AM ^
My favorite part of his rant was when he said Michigan fans had been calling out ESPN and him through e-mails, and he was now "putting the gloves on".
Don't you usually "take the gloves off" when engaging in a battle?

According to Cowherd, the only important areas of the country are the East Coast and West Coast. He intimates this repeatedly.
December 19th, 2014 at 10:38 PM ^
He's looking for ratings
December 19th, 2014 at 10:48 PM ^
Colin loves to fester up anger, hence his intense trollness.
December 19th, 2014 at 10:57 PM ^
Colin Cowherd is an addict. He's addicted to himself. Everything he says is infallible in his mind; he's the kind of person that ESPN loves.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:00 PM ^
Like most news on tv it's less about accuracy and more about sensationalism. Cowherd is looking for ratings. Does he get more by saying "at this time we've nothing concrete to report" no. Just like this site and all over twitter, everyone wants instant gratification. So he plays it up. He pisses off Michigan fans, but is embraced by others... yet he also continues to get many that bleed Blue to return just to catch the latest slight. Just ratings plot, journalism and fact checking went out a decade or two ago. By continuing to discuss him, he gets what he craves. Not saying, just saying....
December 20th, 2014 at 10:18 AM ^
Gee, that sounds like what Drew Sharp does.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:03 PM ^
People will always be envious of michigan. It's just a fact of sports. I'm sure if harbaugh wins here he'll love michigan, He's a puppet.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:05 PM ^
The terd
December 19th, 2014 at 11:11 PM ^
1 second listening to his lame show. I can't even believe I am taking the time right now to talk about him.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:14 PM ^
Why do you care?
December 19th, 2014 at 11:16 PM ^
For some reason his derps draw me in sometimes. But I hate it when cuts off or talks over callers that disagree with his viewpoint. It doesn't matter if they have a valid point. If it disagrees with his derping then he pulls the plug. That sort of jackassery pisses me off.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:16 PM ^
I watched. At first, I was embarrassed for him. It was embarrassing. He made an ass of himself. Then, as he continued mocking UM fans, I became infuriated. At this point, I would pay to watch someone pop him right in the cocksucker. The guy is an ass clown. ESPN should be ashamed for employing that idiot.

In 2006, Cowherd plagiarized content from MZone and passed it off as his own. On the air. Word for word. Live. Without acknowledging M Zone.
Someone from the Michigan community got a hold of it and heck broke lose from the fanbase over it.
There were even some Brandon-esque emails floating around where Cowherd wrote that the fanbase was a bunch of "crybabies" for getting him in trouble with ESPN and having to apologize as a result.
After that, it's been open season on A2 from his bully pulpit. I haven't listened since. I don't know why you people do either.
Fox Sports radio has better content and guests than anything at ESPN anyway.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:22 PM ^
I am pretty sure that douchebag hates everyone. Even babies. And kittens.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:24 PM ^
Cowherd loved him. Hates us for firing him. Loves the NFL. Hates the thought of us succeeding. Talking out of both sides of his mouth.
A study in Psych 201.
Not much more to say.
I quit watching him as of today.
Are you reading me Colin?
December 20th, 2014 at 12:08 AM ^
I actually used to like him. Some of his takes were decent, but if you listen to him too much you pick up that it's all forced schtick. I was shocked to hear Larry David admit he was a Colin fan on Bill Simmon's latest podcast.
As for why he's targeting UM. Top 5 revenue athletic department, top 3 alum network in the nation (especially prominent on the coasts he's obsessed with), late December and big name historic school yet to find new coach.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:32 PM ^
-cowherd is very ratings oriented
-he sees midwest college football recruiting as challenged due to weather
-he has strongly promoted Rosenberg, of course without mentioning stretchgate
-he is not always wrong. But he strives to have strong opinions, probably for.ratings
December 19th, 2014 at 11:32 PM ^
No wonder his father (7x divorced) and mother (3x divorced) had to keep finding new partners. Can you imagine living with that piece of crap as a child? He probably was the reason for the divorces. Hell, he couldn't even maintain his own marriage. Dude obviously has problem maintaining relationships and it is no surprise why.
December 20th, 2014 at 12:23 AM ^
I seriously felt sports talk radio was making me dull. Finally it just became too painful and repetitive to listen to so I switched over to NPR while I drive. It's pretty obvious 95% of the guys are just bullshitting their way through their shows without a grasp of anything they're talking about. Same for NFL pre shows and College Gameday. All hacks. Mike & Mike might as well be a torture technique at Guantanamo Bay.
December 20th, 2014 at 1:34 AM ^
On my phone or I would like 10000 times
December 19th, 2014 at 11:38 PM ^
I vaguely remember him saying that his wife went to U of M. This was several years ago...maybe he got a divorce or something.
December 19th, 2014 at 11:53 PM ^
I'll quote my last post on this:
Here's all you need to know about Colin Cowherd.
This is from Dave Dameshek's former podcast, Daves of Thunder. He's on the phone with Dave Feeney, the co-host (the tone of the podcast is these two guys ribbing each other, fyi. They go back and forth in the beginning). If you don't know Dameshek, he's a goofy Pittsburgher who now works for NFL Network. He's exceptionally funny at what he does.
Anyway, he used to work for ESPN and had the "privilege" of meeting Cowherd. It was...bizarre. Here's what he had to say:
December 20th, 2014 at 12:18 AM ^
"guys that get laid listen to my show" Huh? The average sports radio listener is a 9-5 working middle aged married guy, is it not?
December 20th, 2014 at 6:50 AM ^
laid in Nebraska?
December 20th, 2014 at 1:33 AM ^
He is a moron and a jerk. He makes things up and has zero legitimacy. He's the Geraldo Rivera of sports. Didn't he expose himself for the fraud he is two weeks ago?
December 20th, 2014 at 3:00 AM ^
Cowherd is one of the few sports personalities I legitimately hate. I would feel nothing if he had a horrible accident that resulted in complete loss of his voice.
December 20th, 2014 at 7:48 AM ^
He just got super butthurt because Michigan fans were calling him out for being wrong about our coaching search.
December 20th, 2014 at 7:52 AM ^
You get eyeballs with great analysis, sycophancy, and...
...hate. If you piss off a ton of people, that can get you a big boost. He'll make amends later--or not. Whatever brings in the cash.
December 20th, 2014 at 11:26 AM ^
read, or listen to anything Colin Cowherd. Ignorant, arrogant. Zero credibility.
