QB Kirk ‘Nightmare On’ Herbstreit (Frosted Quips, Afraid of THE Lunatic Fringe)

Is KH a horse's ass? Yes. Does he deserve his own thread at BP ?!?

If you don't have anything nice to say about someone, come sit next to me! ~ Alice Roosevelt Longworth

Wins/losses important ~ Peripheral miscellaneous minutiae aka EsecPN, not so much.

carry on

If you go back and rewatch the ending celebrations after the game is over, you can hear Herbstreit sniffling in the background, and Fowler has to take over the duties of commentator for a solid 10 mins or so. Maybe Kirk indeed does care about the buckeyes lol

He would have a thread even if he wasn't embarrassing himself in each broadcast....

Absolutely. Band-wagonning after being a front-running douchebag is where true emotions reside!

Well, Herbie did prematurely call Les Miles to Michigan, which nixed the handshake agreement and caused Michigan to hire RichRod instead. So he's got that on the plus side of the equation.

I think that Herbie is more of a Tressel hater than an Ohio State hater, but he really has said/done some things that have put the entire program in a bad light.

I think this is dead on, but it hasn't stopped him from continuing to put foot in mouth either - though not quite to the extent that he did when Tressel was here.

Still, even if his problem is really Tressel... why go out of your way to bash the whole program over his personal spat? He, and his defenders (and I was in this boat for awhile), often claim he's just trying to be professional and unbiased... yet he regularly airs his dirty laundry in the most unprofessional ways. On his ESPN soapbox, on his twitter account, etc.
I know you're not making this argument - but the "unbiased professional" schtick doesn't hold water when he repeatedly acts like a child on national television.

I thought he was crying because his favorite team lost.

Did dropping OSU in his AP poll after a Sugar Bowl win over the SEC bring him to tears?
