They didn't want him anyway.

 

[NVGator]

Harbaugh got him canned.

"his unique perspective on sports and society"

Unique? I don't think that word means what he thinks it means. There was nothing unique about Cowturd.

 

[PatDooleySucks]

My memory is kind of foggy on the details, but I heard a caller complain to Cowherd in circa 2010 about how officials cost his team a game. Cowherd responded that he had only seen officials cause a team a game twice. One of those games was the '03 UF/fsu game. Cowherd lamented that not only did the Gators lose but the game should have been a catastrophic blowout.

I tip my hat to the azzhat for that. :bye:

I've always liked him. I thought he was funny.

Harbaugh got him canned.

More or less....I heard he backdoored his way into the interview which was part of the reason Harbaugh blew him off....

I both hated him and liked him at times. So I guess he did what he was supposed to do.

 

[MJMGator]

I found him mildly amusing years ago. Then I found out how to change the channel.

He lived in a vacuum with no cohost. It seemed he would just come out with a thought extemporaneously and then try to defend it for the next few hours - and poorly at that. Also that nasal ranting twine was hard to take. They didn't want him anyway.

I have about as much interest in listening to Colin Cowherd as I do in listening to Missouri Tigers Football.

That's just nasty

Cowherd is a bum. I'm glad espn is getting rid of the dead weight. Olberman and cowherd were awful. Now if they could get lebatard and his retarded dad off the air. I still haven't met anyone that enjoys that garbage.

I released a copious amount of methane into his chair earlier this year (12% silent, 110% violent):

Agreed. Tard just thinks he's so funny and insightful. Stu Gotz is a moron.

It makes you wonder just where the hell do they find these people?

I can't speak for the rest, but Tard is around because he's a second-generation Cuban, so he can broadcast in Miami and pretend he's hispanic and ESPN can act like he's relatable in a cross-cultural sense. He's not.

 

[crosscreekcooter]

Maybe the plan is to hire more sensitive people.

I'm watching the 2003 Gator vs. .5azzU game on Youtube and it brings back great memories of just how sweet that spiral was coming out of Chris Leak's hand.

Good riddance.
