Show me one [censored]ing time Herbie has called any other player on any other [censored]ing team "fat", "stupid", "queer", or any other thing you might call someone you wanted to fight, and I'll admit I overreacted. You can't. So I won't.
did he use the word "queer" i was unaware of that?
something to make me want to fight? not really my style, then again when youre 6-7 2something those who want to fight you either a) have a napoleonic complex or b) probably have some mr miyagi jijitsui crap thatd whop my ass... so i typically refrain from it.
i overreacted? in saying it have some feather of truth? or reality? or whatever you might say...

He actually said "in the last 10 years, or college football history", and he wasn't just talking about OSU lines, so you'd have to do a heck of a lot more evaluation to verify that (non)truth. It's actually pretty easy to say: he went way over the top and made a completely unverifiable and almost certainly wrong statement. There are a lot of people here making reasonable critiques of the OL play this year and in recent years, but Herbie is not one of them with his recent comments.
how many comments are "unverifiable" lets just say lots...
i think id entertain the last ten years underachievers argument, ever well likely a pretty tight stretch there...

While I tend to agree with the substance of what Herbstreit said, the semantics don't sit well with me. I too am frustrated many times with the line and QB play but I would never come on here and articulate those feelings as Kirk did on the record. I think he views himself as someone who says what needs to be said and he feels being harsh will prove it.
why not? why cant he? is that not his job? hes paid millions to provide honest commentary/entertainment. it appears hes done that.
being harsh, sometimes reality is harsh. maybe itll be motivation, maybe not. the one thing i can say is that this team wouldnt jive with ken hitchcock, hed rip the nuts of off these kids...

then again hes got stuff to worry about with his own club.

He crossed the line. End of story. His slant against tOSU in an effort to retain credibility has rendered him equally non-credible.
I wonder how this plays out when tOSU makes a run at a MNC... does he come home as the Prodigal Son... Frankly, I'm with the older brother in this story if he does.
slant against? maybe its true, maybe its the reality. maybe everyone has their panties in such a wad around here they cant see the reality. whens the last time ohio state beat a team that was equal in talent? 2002? certainly not in the past 3 or more years, no way, i wont even entertain that discussion. maybe its time to pull of the scarlet glasses and take a look at reality.
mnc? multinational corporation? or do you mean a national championship? if so with a laughable loss to purdue and the usc game and prior showings and... not gonna happen.
