I posted this in another thread, but I wanted others to read it.

Colin just listed his three most underrated people in sports on this morning's show:

Chauncey Billups - He leaves Det. They collapse. He arrives in Denver. They improve.

Roy Halliday - ERA under 3.2 in 7 of last 9 years. Pitches in AL East. Never asks to be traded.

Les Miles - Turned around OK St. in 2 years. Wins all of his bowl games. NC. Compared it to Saban losing to ULM and Utah.

Made my morning.

Cowherd is the man. I strongly advise those who have never heard his show to give him a shot. He calls it like he sees it, offers great perspective, and he's right more often than not

Him and Dan Patrick have the two best shows on the radio. Period.

But, I love the fact that 90% of these rantards were on here a year ago arguing that CC is a retard and not worthy of the air he breathes. Now that he's said something good about LM, people will instantly become fans.

And claims to believe a So.Cal homer.. a So.Cal homer working for ESPN complimenting LSU!? No way! This goes against all the teachings LSU fans pass down to their kids.

I try to listen to his show everyday. He is a little USCw biased but he does live in L.A. Can't fault him for that. He does have the best radio show IMHO

Did anyone listen to his show yesterday when he had Bill Simmons on talking about a sports journalist is qualified to be a GM. He made alot of valid points. I love the Herd. Great Show. I really like Doug Gottlieb's show.(sp)

Cowherd loves to tell you every day about how he was right about something and how you were wrong about it. Yes, he knows what you think and there's no arguing against it.

And has kept the winning percentage at LSU up while the SEC has gotten stronger.

I listen everyday, and sometimes I wonder who's baby he would have if he could - ARod's, Kobe's, or Pete Carroll's.

I wonder sometimes if Im listening to sports radio or a "self-help" rightwing talk show. He is very provacative though. And the only USC guy that understands the south and our love-affair with football, yet not condescending.

Quit giving Cowherd props. That prick will bad mouth LSU as soon as he gets a chance.

Cowherd admits that he is a West Coast homer (He is a UW grad), and that he does things for ratings, hence further USCw bias.

I disagree with him a lot (not today), but he acknowledges that his opinions should often be taken with a grain of salt.
