[Waquoit]

[amory]

pretty good get for FS1. he was one of the only guys left on ESPN that was somewhat entertaining to listen to.

is he still on the radio, or is it just TV now?

Still on the radio. Said he's negotiating with Sirius and he's on 25 affiliates so far.

Rumor has it that he's a secret investor in scam operation pregame.com. If that is true he's a complete POS.

 

[Bryan Lord]

but hes SO edgy!

 

[bmayuc]

Cowherd is a complete / moron.

 

[Dooley]

Is UConn going to the B1G yet?

What is scam operation pregame.com?

I've never understood Cowherd's popularity. He is the king of passing off his opinion as fact. I would watch his show on TV occasionally while working out, or as back ground noise, and truthfully never found him as smart as he thinks he is. His interview with Harbaugh was classically bad.

 

[UCFBfan]

Does he still live in West Hartford?? His kid used to come to the camp I was the director at and I always saw him at Panera in Bishop's Corner. Never really liked or disliked the guy but he seemed rather full of himself.

Pregame.com is a website run by RJ Bell who is a constant guest on his show.

It's just a classic gambling tout scam - but Bell gets airtime on a number of radio shows and ESPN gives him some legitimacy he doesn't deserve.

I really can't believe people sign up and pay for picks. I gambled on FB way back in the late 90's, when I first got directTV and the NFL package. Man it was fun having an interest in every game, and I started like a house on fire, so much so my buddies started piggy backing my picks. The first year, I couldn't lose. The next two years not so much, and I decided I "wasn't a natural" like I thought. LOL.

Not really a bettor, but this is incredibly fascinating.

It's an absolute great takedown and shows just how dumb the media is about gambling in general and why so many people have such crazy ideas in their heads that they can't
seem to shake.

Wrong Herd on a UCONN site, or has it died a slow death?

He moved to LA this summer, house was on the market last time I looked.

People are dumb about gambling. Anyone who pays touts and gets took deserves it. Like the guys that paid Ashley Madison and spent all their time talking to bots (which were clearly spelled out in the fine print).
