Exactly Colin was definitely more "pro-black" than the average cac.

I'm sure he had his :mjpls: moments but he definitely wasn't an ignorant, racist conservative. He was your average progressive NW dude.

That explains some of his bizarre comments at times. It's like he's on our side on some shyt, then on other things he's completely the opposite. shyt is mind boggling.

Maybe it's just me but I never understood the appeal of sports talk personalities, especially those who are heavily opinion based. I can listen to someone like Zach Lowe cause he tends to present many stats while making an argument but guys like Cowherd just talk, I don't get the appeal

Dude plays both side man. That is how he has stayed popular. Still say don't trust that kat. I have caught him a few times on some red neck mess.

Colin defended bron and brought up the race factor in all the hatred that gets directed at him, wants athletes to get paid, shyts on rednecks and hillbillies.... I don't know what people want from him.
If he's going to be a sports talk guy, how about watching sports and educating himself on the players and teams he is talking about? Whenever he has to talk about something other than movies or socioeconomic bullshyt, he speaks in nothing but generalities. A guy who has rings = champion. A guy who doesn't have rings is "good, but not great...not a guy you can win a championship with." It's just noise.

He probably just signed on with fox so he can try to slide over to Fox News eventually.

You are right in a way, I dont agree with him on wall and melo for example, Im saying that as a commentator he's one of the better ones out there. He can be a blowhard but most of the time he explains his reasoning.

Blogs cherry pick the shyt they can use to paint Colin the way they want to paint dude. If you listen to his rants on the regular, he keeps it real on social issues. He doesn't shy away from reality of racism from majority of whites against blacks and other minorities.

Dude really makes some legit points, but he also trolls the shyt out of people and that's what they focus on:mjlol:

I'm with you

The problem is most sports fans aren't fans of the sport but fans of the entertainment and narratives around it. You see it on this forum.

Colin is fairly progressive on social issues.. Maybe I'm not hearing the segments y'all are, but when I listen, he is regularly ranting about race playing a factor in peoples' perception of athletes, going hard against Bruce Jenner haters.. It's not like he's some ignorant conservative hack spewing decades old good-ol-boy racist rhetoric. Reading the coli though, you'd swear that's what he is


Progressives/liberals are some of the biggest racists breh. Who do you think runs TV/Movies and wont cast a lead of color? Do you think liberals dont care about housing segregation when they move to Brentwood, Scottsdale and San Francisco and try to price the ghetto people out? Take the blinders off man. They need the votes but they dont want to live next to the problems.

Also Phukk Bruce Jenner- What does he have to do with Racial progress??

I doubt they would give max & Marcellus an early morning slot. The afternoon drive is the top time slot & they're podcast & downloads are better than some national shows
Max & Marcellus National show >>> Max pandering to LA by hyping up the horrible Lakers & dikk riding Kobe & trolling Marcellus about the Clippers for 3 hours.
