Take on The Herd

ESPN made a big deal and grandstanded while they took bows for dismissing Colin Cowherd after some insensitive comments he made towards Dominicans. What they neglected to tell you was that since he had signed with FoxSports1 a few weeks back, this was his last week anyway. That is like telling a kid they are not getting IceCream when you have no IceCream in your fridge I get that ESPN, a Disney company whose image must remain clean, had to take a stand here but it is more than a bit disingenuous to make it look like you were really taking a position here when in fact you moved his departure date up by a few days.
I'd think that had he still had a long term contract with Bristol that this would have been handled with a slap on the wrist fine and suspension during the dead month of August when they don't take rating numbers anyway


What is my bigger fear is that ESPN radio will now be 24 hours of Mike and Mike followed by 19 hours of Ryan Ruocco and that is something that should get everybody up in arms

  1. I hear there is a lot of hot, willing, enthusiastic broads all over the Dominican, just waiting to exchange in economic transactions with men from all over the world. Rush Limbaugh used to take trips there and stock up on Viagra for these Dominican trips, so you know the broads there have zero standards and will fuck anything that moves.

    So I'm thinking about a trip to the Dominican Republic. I figure I can catch some baseball games while down there. And smoke cigars. And go on some stupid boat tours.
