Okay, this may be a short diary-but I'm kinda pissed. I was just flipping channels and watched a little bit of Colin Cowherd on ESPNU. Colin has a national radio talk show from 10am-2-pm that is simulcast on TV. As an avid sports fan, I listen to sports radio often.
Colin Cowherd just spent 5 minutes slamming unions for being useless. He said that unions don't use common sense. He mentioned pilot's unions, and sports unions specifically. I guess when you're in the top 1% of income earners, you might not recognize that unions are neccessary. I guess he doesn't know or care that unions gave us weekends, child-labor laws, safety standards or living wages for thousands. But really I don't care as much whether he knows that as his sports opinions.
I don't care about Colin Cowherd's political opinions. He's supposed to be a sportscaster.
STICK TO SPORTS, JERK.
I've already contacted Espn to complain. Please contact ESPN as well and tell them to keep their sportscasters talking about relevant subjects. The phone number to reach them is 1-888-549-3776. You can send him an email
here. Educate him on what unions have done for this country if you like and tell him to talk about sports.
Also, I don't have the video, but if anyone could post it, I know it would add a lot to the diary.
Thanks for letting me vent.
