Football Jim Harbaugh's extremely awkward interview with Colin Cowherd - Page 2

tk13 · 11:22 AM

Aside from having to endure Colin Cowherd, this'll be up for the worst interview of the year. Almost seems like something's off with Harbaugh, like he's out of it or something. Or maybe he's just trolling.

ESPN radio sucks. They can't go 10 minutes without going to awful radio commercials

They hate ESPN, they hate Berman, they hate Al Michaels, they hate Chris Collinsworth, they hate Sunday Night Baseball, they hate, hate, hate, hate and hate some more.

Who do you people like?

None of them. I listened to Rome to hear his overreactions to getting trolled by his own listeners and for the annual Smack-off but stopped listening when I figured out that the Smack-off was orchestrated by Rome's producers.

National sports talk is a trap because you have to discuss topics that appeal to the widest audience.. and that means your bandwagon type teams (anything NY, whatever team Lebron is on, golfing sensation of the year, Peyton Manning and the Dallas Cowboys) and little else beside that.

I can understand that point. If you only care about the local teams, local sports radio is for you. Totally understandable.

Mike and Mike are no good. They constantly try and do cornball schtick. They beg for retweets with stupid hashtags. Basically the whole show is:
Greeny: "Tell me what you think about ___."
Golic: "WHADDYAMEAN?!?!?!?!"
Greeny: "What do you all think? Tweet us and hashtag it #GolicLunchYolo or #GreenyBreakfastSwag."

That is how I see it also.

The best sports talk station, top to bottom, is 1310 out of Dallas. You don't even have to be a Dallas sports fan to listen to most of the shows. It's far and away the best all sports station. I've streamed a lot of different markets over the years.

It's not just about liking whatever local personalities talk about, but not appealing to the lowest common denominator.

Without listening, let me guess about the NFL topics ESPN or other national guys are talking about (and yes, I'm aware it's the offseason)

Wilson's contract.
Dez Bryant's contract.
Lingering Patriot-gate issues.
Luck and the Colts.
Biggest rookie story going in to the year.
Maaaaaybe some Chip Kelly regime discussions.

There are other stories out there, yet it's easier for producers and on-air personalities to focus on the hot button nonsense (Patriot-gate, contract talks [though Wilson's contract begs questions of how much a QB is truly worth] and NFL-thug-of-the-week) because they know it'll get listeners.

Cowturd is a little prick that I would love to bury a fist into his gut then follow up with an uppercut. Repeat as necessary because he is a beady eye.

Dan Patrick is more my speed.

I think Dan Patrick does the best interviews because he'll actually challenge the interviewee on the answer. My problem with his show is that it has way too much of the, "Danettes."

Oh definitely. I used to live in Dallas and that's the station that turned me on to Colin.

Does it offend you that Colin is probably about 200 times more intelligent than you, or ... ?

He's good, and I agree about the "Danettes", he used to be my show of choice, but I just like Colin's show so much better. And Dan often rips into Colin because I think he has some jealousy that he was so easily replaced over at ESPN, by Colin.

As for the interviews, you gotta listen to LeBetard ... he's great. Him and Gotz are a good team.

No but he has a face I would love to punch.

blaise · 07-01-2015, 12:34 PM

LeBatard is good but sometimes he does the bit where he goofs on his producer or lackeys too much. Goes on and on.

Nice. Sounds very rational. Got to show off what a man you are.
