Ah, Herbie. He makes 4M a year from ESPN. Tell me, would you bad mouth your colleagues, your company, refuse to talk the company line at the risk of losing a 4M a year gig? He's not paid to be an investigative reporter.
He's paid to draw interest to games ESPN covers or intend to cover. He is not on Ohio State's payroll.
I like to listen to Paul Keels and I enjoy his pro-buckeye banter, but his check comes from the Ohio State Athletic Department. He's paid to be pro-buckeye.

People like you who excuse shit behavior for money are why people act like shitheads for money.

It seems that he just keeps trying to find some reason for people to feel sorry for him.

Every other broadcaster on every network seem to be able to do their jobs without stomping through shit the way Malibu Ken does. He is an attention whore, a narcissist, a fragile easily offended child who can’t manage to read the room. His recent attempt to walk back his way into the good graces of Buckeyes Nation is so transparently phony. He’s not fooling most of us.

Have you watched an NBC broadcast of an ND game? Ask Chris Collinsworth what happens to reporters who don't do an Irish slobberfest. Have you listened to the army of ass kissers on any NFL game? And finally, if someone was willing to pay you 4M a year to find ways to promote SEC football while trying to be "objective" when covering games outside the conference, would you refuse?

Herbie somehow pissed off OSU fans way back when - why? I have a feeling much of it had to do that he wasn't being paid to be OSU's shill. something they thought he would automatically be. I recall someone stating that he once said, "If I had a son who was a hot QB recruit I wouldn't encourage him to play for Tressell." Well, much as I enjoyed the Tressel years, we still refer to it as "Tressel Ball" meaning a very "defense first" strategy and QBs like Craig Krenzel, not CJ Stroud.

So you’re saying he’s a sell out?

I listen to a lot of buckeye homers. They admit to being homers. I listened to several Irish, Texas, Oregon, Tennessee, Penn state shows the weeks of those games to get their thoughts on the matchups. They all admit to being homers.

It’s frustrating that Kirk is an SEC homer and ESPN is a sec homer network. With the exception of Paul, few of the national guys admit it. He’s being a sec homer but pretending he isn’t. He can’t have his cake and eat it too.

Des works for the same network. He’s a Michelin man that works right next to Kirk. Des hates Ohio state and is free to trash us, but also gives his honest opinion about ttun. I have more respect for Des and Paul. They own who they are.

I respect you Cinci, but I disagree with your take. Krenzel? What about Troy, Pryor, and Braxton? Cardale was on deck, and Haskins committed when he was 7 years old to Tressel :lol: Tressel ball meant great special teams, silver bullet defenses, and a multiple offense depending on who he had here.

Would it help to say I'm the first one to eat crow? I am. I was fooled as a college kid writing for The Lantern.

What he's done to this school with lies, then tears based on lies...yeah, traitor. I want to see him get a viking funeral down the Olentangy River, but I don't want to pollute it.

That's another thread though, just a man admitting he was wrong on that one.

I can't help but remember when Stephanie Spielman was diagnosed and how every Buckeye in the country rallied around them and held them down. Outpouring of emotions and support for the Buckeye legend and his wife.

Wonder why that's not happening here. Must be the hundreds of thousands of fans who have been there for Buckeyes going thru it for a hundred years now. We're all just shitty people. Whatever the reason it couldn't possibly be because Kirk is a fake ass buckeye. Fake as hell.

I was kind of in reverse, I had to snap out of thinking I was watching Marley and Me. I'm not so sure that Kirk knows he has lost about 97% of the Buckeye fanbase and stuff like this won't change opinions on him.

Dogs dying and cancer are something I wouldn't wish upon Desmond Howard. But that's kind of the point. You can't keep stirring the pot and taking shots at ruining the image of Ohio State and its fans, then expect them to be sympathetic beyond mere condolences that anyone else would get.

Define shit behavior. I don’t see it in Herbie. I see it in Des. But beyond that you seem to be suggesting that if your boss was paying you 4 mil, you’d go against his corp guidelines to promote your personal agenda.

Id toe the line for a decade then all bets are off. Might tell my boss to suck my fat hog on live TV.

But no one cares that he's not a Homer. I care cause he's a bitch made bitch boi fuck boi that cheated on his wife to the point she made his ass move out of state and he blamed it on me.

At this point you're ignoring everything we've told you about why he's a bitch. If you don't agree that's fine but to act like we haven’t been over this point by point...I mean cmon.
