I like the fact that he covers football every day...but if I have to sit through 2 hours of his tired routine and his sociological take on every mundane sporting event...to get some football...it's just not worth it.

He doesn't talk enough about straight sports... he has to throw in Carlos Beltran's inferiority complex or Tom Brady's homosexual tendencies...



On second thought, maybe I do like him...

Hey, if it looks like a rat....

but seriously,

gave him a shot at first...but stopped listening after the NBA finals...

Of the MANY analogies he made...the one comparing the Pistons to the old reliable girlfriend and the Lakers to the Sexy unatainable chick at the trendy club comes to mind.

well...yadda yadda yadda....I tune in in the days leading up to the Colts/pats game and he makes the same analogy.

I used to listen to him when I lived in Portland and he was local, but he's not on in the Bay Area.

Cowherd can be funny at times, but his sports picks are abyssmal!


I do not understand how someone who spent so much time covering sports in Vegas could be so bad at picking winners!

But he isn't terrible, just an opening act for Rome.

Colin Cowherd makes me miss the Tony Kornheiser show even more.

I love Russo, but Francessa drives me crazy. I wish I could listen to sports radio at work, that would be very nice, seeing a sports writer here, but I can never get anything done when I'm listening and then you've got the complainers about it being too loud.
