i dont care what cowherd says...i can see why others might. i mean hes a nationally broadcasted radio guy and having him dog your team isnt going to sit well with people. someone said it earlier, just gotta take him for an entertainer, hes not very informed so what he says should be taken with a grain of salt.
He picked Ohio State to the national championship on Sportsnation like a week ago. He's very inconsistent between both his tv and radio shows.
I actually never heard of Colin Cowherd before this thread. I find keeping to just this forum (and its linked sites) and the actual games make following the sport much more enjoyable.
Cowherd recently called Daugherty a "local hack".

Here we go, baby ..all publicity is good publicity.
PS. Cowherd doesn't know what he's talking about..ever. He just knows how to get people wound up.
Cowherd is just making himself look bad here....
I don't think he cares, he just wants more people talking about him and tuning into the show.
The funny thing is Cowherd has regularly admitted he is a hack and is not that knowledgeable. He has freely admitted it many times, especially when he is called out on how many times he is wrong.
All he does is take an extreme side on a debate without any knowledge and creates publicity for himself. He is one of the least knowledgeable figures in sports media, and has even said so himself on different occasions.
yeah, i actually enjoyed listening to him in the past but even before this, i started thinking to myself why was i even wasting my time. after this latest uneducated rant, i will not give him any more of my listening time.
is he calling the reds frauds b/c he doesnt think they are a playoff team? if this is his argument hes wrong this team is playoff worthy. or is he calling them frauds b/c fans or whatever think this is a WS winner? if this is the case the reds are not favorites to go to the WS and are gonna be one of the weakest playoff teams.
and if hes calling the reds frauds hes being hypocrital b/c the cardinals are frauds aswell. i know he argued that they have atleast won a WS so they got credibility.
but then why isnt he calling out the padres or the giants or the braves, none of those teams have done anything recentl;y.
if anything the cardinals and philles are the frauds and the reds, braves, pads, and giants are the real playoff teams.
the guy is an elitist and has this obsession w/ TV ratings. its like he wont watch a reds vs padres playoff series but would be first in line to watch a yankees vs orioles game.
but if the reds dont make the playoffs ill admit i was wrong but i dont think thats gonna happen.
It was incredibly refreshing to hear Doug Gottlieb yesterday.
