If anyone ever listens to ESPN Radio in the mornings, you know who this guy is. He is an arrogant fool who knows nothing about baseball but plays a guy who does on the radio. This man admits to never watching but a a couple of innings a game and doesn't really pay attention. Today on his show he was talking about Randy Johnson and how he his is not better than Roger Clemens. No Shit pal! Everyone could have told you that but he doesn't even thinks it's close. Whoah pal, it's somewhat close. Randy has more strike outs than Clemens despite having thrown 1000 innings less than Roger. He is also closing in on 300 wins. Cowherd also said Randy played on irrelevant teams and never came up in the clutch. Obvious he never watched the 2001 WS or knew that Randy played on 7 playoff teams. Plus Randy has a 3.50 ERA in the postseason. Cowherd also said all his success came in the inferior NL but failed to mention Randy is one of four guys to win Cy Young's in both leagues. Then he went on to say that Randy couldn't handle the NY pressure or any kind of pressure whatsoever. Again, he fails to mention that Randy was hurt while in NY throwing his mechanics off big time. Randy's first year in NY wasn't all that bad going 17-8 with a 3.79 ERA. Man he sucked dick! He was 34-19 while in NY with a bad back, knee and groin. Then this ass went on to say that Randy couldn;t handle it in the AL so he went to the NL and now look at him. Wrong again dumbass!! He is pitching well because he has a healthy back and is now throwing 97mph, something he couldn't do in pinstripes. Plus he has his mechanics back. It's not simply that the NL is inferior. The NL West has the best pitching in all of baseball and it's not because they have to face ptichers in the batter's box.
Cowherd has also gone on to say that diehard baseball fans would tell you that Nolan Ryan was better than Roger Clemens. Not a one person would tell you that on this forum and no TRUE baseball fan would either. He has also gone on to say and I quote, "If you want stats, go look at Dave Kingman". Are you ****ing kidding me??? And this guy came from Seattle!!! He also called Arod Afraud after one week into the season even though he was hitting over .300 for that week. This man clearly knows nothing about baseball and should stick to his football or should I say Michael Vick talk. He talks about four topics for four hours and never says anything new about them. He repeats the same damn things over and over and offers nothing new. Two of those hours are spent on Michael Vick. Thank god for Jim Rome coming on at 11 or else I would have one more hour of this ass talking "sports" or should I say the same thing he said in hour one. My rant is done!
