How I despise ESPN’s radio programming, and though they won’t give a turd, I am exercising my right to change the channel. There was a time when that’s about all I was listening to, and then Cowherd made the “Tornado Bait” comment and I was a little nonplussed, not really ticked off, but it was a thoughtless comment that he refused to retract, turd that he is. But then came the whole Alabama coaching search, and the turd showed his true colors, attacking Alabama for its fanbase’s high expectations, saying that Bama would “never” be able to hire a top-line coach. “Bama will never get a Spurrier or a Saban. The best they’ll get is Jim Grobe or Paul Johnson.” He absolutely howled with delight when Rich Rodriguez turned down Bama’s offer. And then, when finally the Fates smiled down upon Alabama Nation and they received a quality head coach, there was no contrite, “I was wrong.” There was no, “Well I guess it’s a better job than I thought.” No, there was only inflammatory malcontentedness. “Well, sure, if you’re going to pay that much for a coach I guess anybody would take the job!” was all he offered, once again proving to one and all that he is a turd.
Get this, Cowturd: Bama paid market value for the best coach in college football. Get over yourself.
That all happened in December ‘06 and the following January, and I haven’t tuned to ESPN since, and I won’t again, until the turd is pushed back down to AM where he belongs, peddling male sexual enhancers to Portland truckers and raving about how the Seahawks should send Shaun Alexander back to Alabama. One thing’s for certain, if the turd gets wind of this post he’ll wail about how lame bloggers are and how superior he is (compensating), I’ve heard it all before: the man has nothing constructive to offer but prattle and banter.
ESPN has always had their run-ins with fan bases. Remember when Chris Fowler (I believe) said that there would be a “trailer park frenzy” in Tennessee after one of the Vol’s big wins? ESPN never makes things right. If it wasn’t for Kirk Herbstreit, there would be no reason to watch or listen to ESPN.
Man, you are right ON. Herby comes on the local channels and even though you can tell he has a OSU bias, he owns it, admits to it, and then gives a more unbiased opinion of games than any of the ESPN talking heads who claim to be impartial. I’m right there with you.
I like this blog, man. Big Al sent me over here. Feel free to comment all over my blogs as well.
Ha, I’m from Big Ten country so we son’t agree on much, but I’m with you here.
The sooner you realize Cowturd is a worthless skeleton hack with no insight into sports and a laughable tendency to use the most innaccurate similes possible, the sooner his bullshit career will be over.
