Grade A Sports Guy: Colin Cowherd

What: Colin is a Radio Host on ESPN Radio, the host of "The Herd"

Where/When: ESPN Radio typically from 10am - 1pm. I listen to him on ESPN 1050 in NYC where he is on from 10-noon.

Why: Colin is pretty much a typical sports guy. Completely strongly opinionated and he doesn't give a crap if he offends anybody. Occasionally you will disagree with him and become annoyed by how strongly he believes he is right but for the most part he is straight on with how I feel and he pretty much says everything that is going on in my head. Basically it's hours of him ranting opinions. Quality stuff.

Best Moment: Colin completely went off on UVA Cavaliers and how they are the softest bunch of Zima drinking pansy football program on the planet. He got Charlottesville so riled up that he was the #1 story on their newspapers sports website and the kid reporter went and interviewed him. Both of this clips are hilarious, and highly accurate. UVA always has talent, they typically have highly ranked recruiting classes, often by the scouts eyes out recruiting VT, yet they always get demolished by VT and could not carry VT's jock.

Sum Up: Colin is the man, he's humurous and you should tune in your radio while you're at work for a few hours of entertainment.

Update: As of the end of the College football season Cowherd has turned into much more of a douche bag and his shut down of The Big Lead was lame. And I've started to listen to Max Kellerman on 1050 everymorning instead.

Numbers On Steroids: Bret Boone

Numbers on Steroids is a look at baseball players during the 90s to see if anything screams out at you. Mr. Boone was once the best power hitting second baseman in the league. How questionable was his success? Averages Say: Why the extra plateu in his mid 30s? At Bats Per Home Run Says: Lowest at Bats Per Home Runs at 37? Hmm.... Explaining It Away Yeak, this one is tough. Umm, late bloomer? He showed potential power early in his career and he just liked playing in Seattle a lot more than everywhere else? And umm, his career was kind of like a running backs in that it just all of a sudden fell off the map? Any of these convincing you? The Verdict Guy never hits more than 24 home runs in a season and then in his age 32 season he hits 37? And in SafeCo a pitchers park to boot? And he follows that up with 24, 35, 24 homer years still at SafeCo? And then he completely falls off the map in 2005 never to be heard from again? We've got a Screamer... Man Get Big Muscles In 30s. Hm...
