I don’t play the Banjo, but I want to learn

 Kiss my ass Colin Cowherd.  I consider myself to be married West Virginia Football, “Til death do us part”.  I say that the time has come to rally the troops and show our enemies (Cowherd)  that resisting the pull of the Eers is futile. Coach Rod will assimilate the ignorant (Cowherd), into a world where West Virginia reigns supreme.

 

Please copy and paste this and send your Governor and to ESPN Radio [Link]:[Here is Cowherd's offensive rant: Podcast]
I highly suggest you review Colin Cowherd’s stereotypical rant from Tuesday August 7th against West Virginia and it’s people.

Is this the kind of journalism ESPN and ESPN Radio endorses?

I highly suggest everyone email their local ESPN radio affiliate who carries Cowherd and let them know you will no longer listen to their station specifically because of Cowherd and his bigoted statements against our state and our people.

Also drop a line to the mother company ESPN.
I KNOW COWHERD IS USUALLY EXTREME AND ATTENTION DRIVEN, HOWEVER TODAY’S SHOW AND HIS COMMENTARY WERE EXTREME AND OVER THE LINE.

He stated our entire state is full of banjo playing, moonshine drinking, basically inbred rednecks.

He stated EVERYONE in our state LOOKS LIKE THE PEOPLE FROM THE GEICO COMMERCIALS.

Stated we have no commerce (also stated at least Arkansas has Walmart) except for Unicorn T shirt shops.

He stated that if you take him to any town in West Virginia he guarantees the nicest house will have washing machines and other crap on their front porch or yard.

Stated everyone from our state was “crazy” and basically incoherent.
THIS WAS SAID ON A NATIONAL RADIO SHOW.

ASK YOURSELF THIS QUESTION: If this was said about any other cultural group in the USA, what would the response be?

COWHERD Must be HELD ACCOUNTABLE and FIRED from his job JUST LIKE IMUS.

The stereotypes and bigotry against our PEOPLE and OUR GREAT STATE have gone on long enough.

    First off I have to give you credit for a better picture. These ladies are better lookin than the cheerleaders from yesterday. Well, except the moo-moo flashing the W on the undies she borrowed from my great-grandma. On to the real heart of the manner…… Nobody cares about WVU and I have a feeling that I am speaking for everyone that reads this blog when I say that your useless cries for help are starting to really get on our nerves. You post some crappy writing on here everyday about how WVU is this and WVU is gonna do that. From the looks of it WVU and bama have one thing in common, the preseason is their favorite time of year because they can run their mouth and not have to back it up. Here is my plea…….. If you can’t bring something informative to the table like all the other writers dont bring anything at all. Enough of the “I am married to WVU” shit.

    gatorhippy:

    That’s what I was thinking – granny panties. I guess they think that kind of thing is considered “sexy” in West Virginia.

    To paraphrase the high school principal (James Downey) from the uber comedy classic “Billy Madison”…

    “Mr. Eer, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent post were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone on this blog is now dumber for having read it. I award you no credibility, and may God have mercy on your soul….”

    Cowherd is right. That photo is clearly cropped on the right, I suspect there were 4 or 5 fatties that were conveniently chopped out of the photo…

    “Please copy and paste this and send your Governor and to ESPN Radio”

    I’m afraid if I send that to my governor he’ll declare 8/7 official Coward/West Virginia sucks day.

    “I highly suggest everyone email their local ESPN radio affiliate who carries Cowherd and let them know you will no longer listen to their station specifically because of Cowherd and his bigoted statements against our state and our people.”

    Are you kidding? Because of these statements I’ll start listening to Cowherd again.

    Those are not “tourists” in my state. John Denver Bitches

  13. 2007 August 8

    Is “John Denver” supposed to be some kind of argument stopper? This is the first time I have ever heard “John Denver Bitches” in reference to ANYTHING

  14. 2007 August 8

    John Denver must be considered some kind of “badass” in West Virginia but a total pussy in the other 49 states.

    “John Denver must be considered some kind of “badass” in West Virginia but a total pussy in the other 49 states.”

    Kinda like how Big Least is viewed in the other conferences?

    Umm I was think more along the lines of Dan Rather, but I’m not sure if Katie Couric has the flow and the wit of a drunken Dan Rather.

    Actually, that is my masterpiece rant, actually targeted at Tennesee fans, but you can insert any SEC worthy team after the word “inbred” since thats the easiest route anyone takes. Some are based on personal experiences, some were left off like my homeless uncle who isnt homeless, just lives like one, even though he lives in a suburban neighborhood with his grown sister, he grows a beard, is schizophrenic, and stays in the garage, preferring to sleep in an empty box from a combo-washer and dryer duct-taped together and doesnt take baths, and this is upscale Hoover,ALA. You just cant buy your way out being related to crazy people.

    I hate to be the one to break this to you dude, but all of the bad things said here about WV are pretty much spot on. Not everyone in the state is like that, but go to any one of those towns up there and just look around for a little while, you’ll see the people who fell off the family tree and didn’t have any branches to hit on the way down.

    I made the mistake of taking a job up there for a year and by the end of the second month the family was willing to move to friggin Alaska (or even worse Alabama) to get out of WV.

    No where else in the world have I ever seen a guy making the rounds at the chineese buffet, stop at the mac & cheese (up there you’ve got to have mac & cheese at the chineese place cause some folk up there just don’t do that forin’ food stuff) stuff his hand down the back of his best sweat pants to scratch the inside of his ass, and then go back to loading up on some egg roll goodness.

    I just about threw up a little just thinking about that place. Thank God I’m back home in Big Orange Country.

    Angry, you keep talking about being married to Mountaineer football… is Mountaineer Football your cousin or sister?

    You do have a right to be angry though, because teams like Rutgers and Louisville tend to take you too seriously because the Least Coast media overhypes your team. I’ve lived in three states in my life- Tennesse(hate those vols go 2-10 Tiger!), Arkansas (We had to show proof of our marriage licenses to a blood relative just to get considered for admission), and Oklahoma(the state witht the biggest football homers I have ever ever ever seen). While I have no pride in OK or TN really,I have to endure all of the Arky jokes you can throw at me.

    “Yeah, we had to send him back home from work the first day to go buy shoes.” They’re jokes deal with it. You have a right to be angry, but it’s only because you play in a conference that has no hope of putting a team in a BCS title game – Stick that in your ireful ‘Eer
