My opinion of Cowherd has not changed even though he has the Bengals #1.  He has a lot of good contacts and sources of information, but he is really not that smart about sports.  

He is more interested in trying to make social commentary and pushing people buttons.

At first I was happy when he got bumped off of the ESPN radio that I listen to, but he was replaced by Dan LeBatard who is just as bad.

i guess it is impossible to fill 24 hours of sports radio without just repeating the same stuff, but too many of these shows end up being about the host instead of sports.

I agree with you that he does a lot of social commentary. And most of it I disagree with and wish he would just stick to sports. But I've listened to him for a long time and he does know sports. He can be very entertaining also. But it wasn't my intent to defend him (so why am I doing it, right?) I just wanted to express my shock that he would put the Bengals ahead of his beloved Patriots.

And I agree with you on LeBatard. I can't stand the guy. He's always whining about social issues. I don't even listen to him anymore.
