Still waiting for my Colin-oscopy
Still nothing from Colin Cowherd - who claims to want to punch a Virginia football fan in the neck, but has yet to take me up on my offer to let him get a shot in at me.
Hmmm ...
It's interesting how one can make such blanket statements as Cowherd, the host of ESPN Radio's "The Herd," offered about Virginia football fans ...
I'm getting ahead of myself here - so for those of you just joining us ...
"UVa. football is the softest bunch of cream puff, bowtie wearing, brie-cheese-eating, ascot-wearing wussies I have ever seen in my life," Cowherd said on the air during a discussion of the top states for interest in college football after a listener had called in to make the case for the Commonwealth of Virginia.
"There's not a softer bunch of cookie-dough-eating wienies than the UVa. football program," Cowherd said.
"Those guys wear makeup to games. That is the biggest bunch of fru fru, daiquiri-drinking, non-alcohol-beer-chugging wienies I have ever seen in my life.
"Dude, do you know what the most popular drink (is) at UVa. football tailgating? Zima! Unbelievable.
"I ought to punch UVa. people in the neck. Don't ever come on my show and brag about your football," Cowherd said.
So back to what I was saying about blanket statements - he puts this out there, and then somebody comes along to offer him a chance to swing for the fences, and what do we hear from him? Nothing.
I'm beginning to wonder who the bowtie- and ascot- and makeup-wearing, brie-cheese- and cookie-dough-eating, daiquiri-drinking, non-alcohol-beer-chugging, Zima-loving fru fru-cream puff-wussie-weanie really is.
Hint: It's the guy who couldn't hack it at Eastern Washington (motto: "Colin Cowherd dropped out of here, proving that we at least have some standards").
