But he was right. Wall needed to grow up.
I don't disagree but imagine if that was you would you want somebody always on your ass for something years ago? I think that's how more people have to think. If you are cool with somebody being on you for something like the Dougie from your first game years later cool but me I'm not with it.

I haven't heard all his takes on John Wall so I can't really say if they came off as racist or not. If it's anything like his "backwards hat QB" takes where he's basically saying the kid needs to grow up, mature, and have a more professional attitude to live up to his full potential, then I can see that being a reasonable opinion. But there was more to it though like going into his relationship with his father or something?

So there's that stuff and the Dominicans comment. What else?

I didnt listen to Colin all that often but if he was doing a decent topic I'd listen in my car to pass the time...his show was at least listenable. I found myself plenty of times just laughing at some of his assumptions that were over the top preposterous...but he was at least entertaining. Mike and Mike is so bad.

Colin knew how to make radio entertaining unlike Mike and Mike and all those other ESPN radio shows.

His troll game was always on point:mjlol:

Got him fired too:dead:

Now he's gonna be on Fox trolling the hell out of everyone:banderas:

I didn't listen to sports radio till he came on. Giving Ryen a chance but he has a co-host every damn day and while his show is building, takes a week off to go to fukking UFC. That said, having dude from Hot 97 was pretty good. He keeps trying to recreate the magic he and SVP had. Time to go dolo for real Rusillo. ESPN is going to hate losing Colin.

To me it's just a sensational way of saying he still isn't where he needs to be a leader. He is almost there and Colin has said as much.

At least Colin wasn't a robot. I don't get the whole he has racist views, that dude was sticking up for us 90% of the time. Yall busy focusing on the 10% you didn't like because it was negative. Everything negative is not bad, its good to have them discussions. Colin was saying the same shyt old black men say, the under 30 crowd just don't like to hear that shyt.

Why are people supermanning for Cacherd in here??
Dude is a known racist/elitist. This is the same dude that says he loves Oregon because it is "mostly white". Complex to him is Tom Brady whom he felates daily on his show. Nevermind that Brady is a basic intelligence QB but he is white ao Colin stans him.

I don't think nobody supermaning for anybody some just have differing views. That's a problem with people now you can't have differing views without folks being all hurt. A lot of people are elitist on things so its not really a problem. When most people think they better than you in something whether its him or on here that's what a lot of people do. I pay that no mind just like Oregon mostly white stuff so what? Most people on here like being around blacks so whats the difference outside we don't have the platform to say it? Some things I can get hyped over but stuff like the Oregon comment or who he dikkriding nah. The Wall shyt as I've said before is annoying and the Baltimore stuff was blah even if he had somewhat of a point. Otherwise I don't really have much that is polarizing from him.

What's this "creative thought" bullshyt? Colin has never, ever said shyt that was creative, intelligent, or interesting to me in the least. He's like that well-off White guy at work who sort of watches sports and just blathers whatever nonsense comes to the top of his head. Why should that be on the radio?

The only reason he made it as a host was because he gave off the elite, "this is what us high-brow white guys think" aura, so that people who thought they were better than others and everyone who wanted to be like them would listen to him. It wasn't even low-key - he had an entire speech about how he was the radio host for lawyers, doctors, and "professionals".

Creative thought in the sense you actually disagreed or agreed with his point of view. He actually gave an opinion, something all the other ESPN shows are too scared to do.
