I really don't like Cow herd.
He was right about Kiffin on this instance, but as broeken watch is correct twice a day.
I really dislike that dude.

Yep, Cowherd sucks and even when he is somewhat complimentary he sucks. Don't even like seeing his name appear on our board (and I did not read the article).

The broadcast wasn't "somewhat complimentary", it was "Extremely complimentary", not only for Lane Kiffin, but for Coach Saban.
I thought he did a good job in this particular case.
He's a national announcer, and his job isn't to say what Bama fans like to hear, it's to say what he feels.
If he doesn't he wouldn't be qualified to be a national announcer, he'd be working for a radio station in Tuscaloosa.
Come on.

Not to drag your link down, it was good. It balances out his other venom on Kiffin. I would agree with you, but you left out something. His job is TO BE CONTROVERSIAL. Now I agree with you. His job is to get his show talked up on the net and at the water cooler. That being the case, I understand why he does it but I still despise him for being so wishy-washy. One day Coach Saban sucks and the next week he is the greatest coach of all time? Ditto Kiffin. I will never respect a dude like that, though I understand why he does it.

Also, he could report and opine without the drama. Saying Coach Saban can not adjust and he will never win another NC, or never beat a Good HUNU team again is just plain STUPID. Cowherd does not have to be a Bama fan to tell us he doesn't think Bama can beat Michigan State or Clemson. But no, he has to drama it up and diss the entire program.

After colon cow hurds comments and then Bama winning another NC, I think Colon should go stick his head in the sand like a big bird. Either that or get a wet warm towel and wash the egg off his face.

Isn't this clip from the day after the game? By now Cowherd has probably flipped 180 degrees on Kiffin and Saban.

Great perspective! Which could be applied to, and said of, all of them. Wish they would be a bit more fair and unbiased at times, but that was not what they were hired to do.

He is indeed very inconsistent.

Cowherd is in the same boat as Jim Rome...Punks who make their living being controversial. Like Russell used to tell Rudy on Fat Albert..."They are like school on a holiday...No Class!"

I had a history professor at UA tell me I was cursed with the "national accent of the unintelligent". I replied that I "did not think with an accent."
You should have told him he was curse with the national accent of a pompous ....
