When did Colin start catering his show to 13 year old girls only?
So LeBron isn't selfish?
Of course Nick Wright would like Euro soccer
The same LeBron, friends with Jay Z, who doesn't seem to mind a full career of misogynistic lyrics? Please..save the outrage.
We get it Nick, you're a progressive intellect
Except he was right about the vaccine
But have you punched anyone in your 90 min prep show and then spent 2 weeks justifying it?
If Aaron Rodgers threw a punch you'd be apoplectic. Awful and self-serving take blaming media outrage.
The take on Aaron Rodgers not having kids is one of your worst. Your show has completely fallen off a cliff. Just admit you don't like anyone who differs from your political opinion...Mister "I don't talk politics".
By grifter and con you meant Obama
Only 2 took years for you to come around on masks...new info, right? A little late to the party
Only you could take an opposite take on the Jerry West story. You'd react the same if you weren't accurately portrayed. Ridiculous
Comparing Rodgers to Kyrie is absurd. The witchhunt continues
Except the right was correct from the beginning on Covid and leftists, including yourself, locked the country down for 2 full years. Congrats
yeah let's completely ignore the NBA ratings issues Uncle Colin
Lacrosse is on the right track if crusty old sportswriter isn't into it.
Now apply that same reporting standard to Joy on your own show
Uncle Colin, you have not stayed out of politics. Repeating it over and over doesn't make it true. Glad you finally admitted the masks were nonsense, only 2 years late and wrong on that take.
Except that's not the Davanate Adam's left. At least be intellectually honest in your witchhunt of Rodgers.
Rodgers has only lost "brand" with you insufferable liberals. Everyone on the other side would want him as their QB. You can have needy Russel Wilson.
