Colin Cowherd (Official Ass Hat)

i do enjoy his show most of the time, he is creative with his topics, etc. but i def. agree that he is a bully to callers and anyone who voices an opinion not similar to his own. i do listen to him on an almost daily basis. however, while on the subject, can anyone else out there absolutely not stand listening to steven a smith?? the mike tirico show needs to last the extra hour or whatever so i don't have to listen to steven a smiths arrogant ass.


I totally agree on your radio ratings. You know in Dayton they used to follow the DP show with Erik Kuselias and I thought his show "sports bash" was the worst ever. Now they replaced Erik with the "2 live stews" and I would rather go skydiving with a lead vest than listen to those guys. I do believe that the Steven A Show is a very close #2 behind the "2 live stew?s" and both are terrible radio shows. Erik Kuselias now does a show called Nascar Now and I don?t care for Nascar but I would gladly listen to that show over Steven A or the stew?s.

You need to realize that he is on the radio to sell his radio show. He is there to entertain. He doesn't get ratings from being right about predictions. He gets ratings from saying, "blah blah blah," and people thinking, "I can't believe he just said, 'blah blah blah'!" And they call up and say, "Do you really think 'blah blah blah'? What about 'blah blah blah'?" And their "blah blah blah" is just as retarded as Colin's "blah blah blah."

And all us jerks are too stupid to quit listening to the mumbo jumbo.

I have to go with love him because he has one of the few national shows to devote a lot of time to college football. Everyone is right to point out that he is usually just pandering for rankings (i.e. slurping the Trojans, always talking about the Yankees, picking on particular fan bases because he knows they'll react). He's like your annoying older brother/cousin who will give you a lot of good insight and advice but always will mix in those little digs that get under your skin just because he wants to show you who's boss. The fact that he runs down the Buckeyes every time he can is just a hat tip to the fact that they have some of the most loyal and passionate fans. If he tried picking on most Pac-10 or SEC teams they would just turn off his show, where as the Buckeye faithful just come back for more. The more love you have for your team the more he'll pick on you the more it bothers you the more his ratings and buzz go up. It's a great cycle to good ratings he's figured out,and you have to respect him for playing to the hilt.

I think that pretty much sums up my thoughts on it all, except my IQ prohibits me from enjoying a lot of his stuff even though I know he is doing it simply for shock value and to sell his show. In that aspect, I think that is how he is like Stern. He can't believe everything he tries to sell, he's trying to be shocking. From that standpoint I feel he must think his listeners are stupid enough to believe it, which is insulting.

His show rates slightly above Mike and Mike which are the worst for their stupid, sugary humor. Makes me wanna barf my breakfast every time I accidentally turn it on.

RIVALS RADIO is where you should be tuned in!

:biggrin:

Colin Cowherd: When will ESPN fire him already?

Seriously! I hate this man! He is a double talking, master manipulator. I ain't saying he isn't good at what he does; I just don't like what he does. He is playing EVERYBODY! He knows how to play people much better than he knows the game of football. He is terribly biased and downright unfair and hurtful to the PLAYERS and FANs of programs or conferences that just doesn't like. He proclaims to just be telling what he thinks is the truth, but I don't buy that! I don't buy VIZIO TVs or anything else that asshat endorses.

Turn the station. He goes as ratings go. Obviously enough people enjoy him to keep him going. Funny how last year people had the complete opposite opinion of him because he was big on our bucks.

I'm not going to judge any radio host on his opinion of our buckeyes or any of my teams.
