Colin Cowherd . . .


Jan 2, 2017, 3:20 PM

I don't keep up with him regularly, but did he do any gloating after Ohio State "boxed [our] ears" ???? Oh- wait- !!!!

he apologized for calling Clemson a fraud

said were were the real deal "now", but not an elite team at the beginning of the season, citing Troy, NCST, etc. Very young team that got better as the year went by, coaches deserve alot of credit, and he was wrong for saying Clemson was a "fraud".

He also called our fans soft for complaining about it. I sort of agree with him, we have a bunch of easily offended fans that need to just suck it up when somebody doesn't throw rose petals in front of the Clemson program. Look at all the petty fights our fans pick with the media. But I suppose the logic is if every other fan base does it also, so should we.

That doesn't make us better than other fans bases, it makes us the same. And that's not good.

nothing wrong with fans standing up against false narratives the media pushes...

Seems like your petty and easily offended by our fanbase for being supportive of our football team. You're a fool if you agree with anything Cowherd states. His sole goal is trolling certain teams fanbases to get listeners.

yep, you nailed me. I'm a snowflake.

I'm off the the ProZone safe space now to get away from all the meanies on here.

Cowherd's goal IS to acquire and keep listeners. As is Mark May's, Skip Baylis, etc ... everyone in the media from the national talking head to Jerry writing for your local sports blog. Tiger fans should know this by now. These media members need "hot takes" whether they believe them or not. They are paid to have an opinion - they are not paid to be unbiased news reporters. They are not journalists, they are entertainers. That is why it is so puzzling that so many on TigerNet get their panties in a wad. Why do so many Tiger faithful care?

You may ask ... "ninetytwotiger, why the #### do you care what others on TigerNet think". Well, that is a good question. I care because the crying and gnashing of teeth gets old. Thankfully I am a donor so perhaps I will start using the ignore button.

Those always feeling wronged by the media and lack of rose petal distribution remind me of Commodus in the movie Gladiator. He is often vexed by the world around him as there is a vocal TigerNet contingent that is vexed by the perceived lack of respect.

Why do you always defend people who constantly bash Clemson?


Jan 2, 2017, 4:35 PM

I don't follow any of these shows. I've listened to these personalities before and decided over 5 years ago, they offering nothing. So I stopped listening to them. But if I hear they stated something moronic, I will call it moronic. I don't care if their "entertainers" as you say. If that's considered entertainment, then we have a lot of low IQ people in this country.

So it's more like why do you keep on complaining about Clemson fans calling out stupidity?

Soft for "complaining" about someone calling your team a fraud? That doesnt make much sense. So we would be hard if we just sat back and did not call Colin out on his ########?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

He sounds "soft" himself


Jan 2, 2017, 3:47 PM [ in reply to he apologized for calling Clemson a fraud ]

putting himself in the spotlight and then calling a fan base soft because they are riding his butt for it. Unless I am missing something there....????

F Cowheard.......dude called our team a fraud on his National show, and we shouldn't be offended.....

badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I half agree with you . . .


Jan 2, 2017, 4:03 PM [ in reply to he apologized for calling Clemson a fraud ]

we do have such a contingent in our fanbase. It may or may not be predominantly the folks who are loudest online, or a case of the millennials in our fanbase being the most vocals, but it is there.

That said, Cowherd is an #### and a blowhard and while there have been plenty of legitimate points of critique on Clemson this year that he and others have stated (and I've agreed with many of them), he didn't have the good sense or self restraint to temper it or qualify it, b/c blowhards like him love to be right, and love for everything sports related to be black and white. Now, b/c of his mouth and lack of self-control, he looks like a moron. At least he ate his crow, though.

But I have no problem with him critiquing Clemson. But a "fraud"?? That was colossal overkill/overstatement!

Extremism in defense of Clemson is no vice ...


Jan 2, 2017, 5:00 PM [ in reply to he apologized for calling Clemson a fraud ]

If he wants to call us frauds, he must accept the ramifications of his words. I salute his willingness to relent, but will never back down from substantiated slander.
