ESPN Radio Hosts Makes Tasteless Comments Regarding Eddie Guerrero
 

I'm not sure if this is any of the other threads but read this:

Anthony P. Landrosh sent in the following letter to me. He said that he was listening to ESPN radio earlier today, "The Herd With Colin Cowherd", and Colin Cowherd said some rude comments about Eddie Guerrero's passing. He accused Eddie and other wrestlers of steroid use. Cowherd said, "who cares that he died" and that Guerrero's death was not "newsworthy." He also started speculation on the "unknown causes" of his death.

Mr. Pena,

Your report of ESPN Radio and Colin Cowherd was shocking and horrible. I've contacted ESPN to complain. Please make another post informing the viewers of LordsOfPain.net that you can call ESPN at 860-766-2000. They can call, they will have to ask to speak to a customer service person, that way the voice of fans can be heard. Hopefully Colin the Coward Coherd will be fired. Thanks.

Nate Dickey

Also, Nate said that he talked to customer service and they said that they will tell the producers of Colin's Cowherd's radio show for a possible reprimand and punishment for Colin Cowherd. If you guys call by the droves, it'll definately make it all the more likely that Mr. Cowherd gets in trouble for what he said. Every phone call made to ESPN's customer service really helps.

<HR>

Tim Chandler sent in the following update to me concerning your phonecalls to ESPN in regards to the rude remarks ESPN radio host Colin Cowherd made earlier today about Eddie Guerrero. Tim tells me that ESPN headquarters has been getting "thousands upon thousands" of phone calls from angry wrestling fans. The calls have been coming in by the droves that ESPN can't handle them all and they've had people come in from other departments to help take them. Tim says that the switchboard operater has NEVER seen such an incredible backlash or response than the one they have had in the last hour or so. It looks like ESPN is going to take some serious action against Colin Cowherd due to the phone number I posted earlier today. Then subsquently, wrestling fans like you called in to voice your complaints to ESPN.

<HR>

There is an online petition to get rid of Colin Cowherd. Don't know how much merit this would hold with ESPN has 236 signatures so far.

<HR>

You can personally voice your thoughts to Colin Cowherd as a person sent me his e-mail address. You can e-mail him at cmcowherd@aol.com.

I am very pissed. I signed the petition, I hope the rest of you do as well. If some one could send the Coward guy a virus on my behalf I would be grateful....

signed, hope the stupid prick gets the boot. thats something noone would care about

i hope he burns in hell

What would be the address to send an e-mail to ESPN?

I hope that moronic piece of shit gets fired for what he has said, how he can bare to look at himself in the mirror knowing he has said such disgusting remarks about a fellow human being is beyond me. Also it is certainly not the sort of thing the Guerrero family need to hear at this time.

I am more than happy to add my name to the petition.

You'd think someone with the ear of thousands of listeners would have something thoughtful and profound to say.

Sad, very very sad.

For e-mailing ESPN

Well I signed my name

Just sent an e-mail to them

Someone here already posted the number to contact ESPN. If you want to e-mail Colin's show, you can also try e-mailing theherd@espnradio.com.

Cowherd isn't one of ESPN Radio's marquee hosts (for example, Mike and Mike, Dan Patrick, and All Night are required to be aired on all ESPN Radio affiliates that are owned by Disney... Cowherd is not, and therefore, his show does not air in Chicago, home to ESPN Radio's flagship affiliate). Cowherd replaced Tony Kornheisar after he decided to step down.

1564 signatures now.

E-mailed ESPN and Colin Cowshit.

What did you e-mail him?

''Fuck you and die''

The actual audio file is there.

Stopped listening halfway through. Can't be bothered listening to his shit. Going to watch some Eddie videos on wwe.com until Raw is on.

Mindless, thoughtless crap. Seems like the co-host made points he couldn't answer.

Glad I don't listen to this cocksucker everyday.

I sent it out to my buddies and my Dad. They're gonna pass it along. Lets get this bastard out of there. There is nobody that can say a bad thing about Eddie.

FUCK THIS GUY :foc: EDDIE IS AN INSPIRATION TO PPL !!!! I HOPE THIS COCKSUCKER ON THE RADIO GETS CANNED. I DON'T LISTEN TO ESPN RADIO BUT I WATCH ESPN TV AND I HOPE THIS GUY LOSES HIS JOB. FUCK YOU!!!

I don't know where this PRICK comes off talking about shit he obviously stated he has no clue about. I mean do Pilots teach people how to become a doctor? Should a moron that hasn't seen a wrestling match since he was in high school, be able to comment about professional wrestlers when he has no f'n clue what it is?

This prick really pisses me off. He thinks what that wrestlers should only be recognized if they are in movies?

The steroid comment is hilarious, then the co-host says something about "yeah and professional atheletes don't use steroids..." and of course he couldn't answer.

Yeah I hope they fire him.

damn that was hard to watch

I signed the petition and I hope he gets fired. This prick makes an ESPN TV personality in Jay Mariotti a SAINT compared to this cocksucking asshole.:foc:

I saved the MP3 file. I do want to hear what h said and judge for myself, but I've gotten some bad news tonight and I'm not in the mood to listen to something that will further aggravate me.

Signed it.

Sent this to the heads of ESPN.

I have never had the opportunity to meet Mr. Cowherd or Mr. Guerrero.

Based soley on the story of Eddie Guerrero and the remarks of Colin Cowherd, I can say, that I will miss Eddie, he was one of the few made me proud to be a wrestling fan. His ordeals, and his overcoming of personal demons makes him a better man than anything that Mr. Cowherd could hope to be. I can honestly say that I can one day hope to be half the man that Eddie Guerrero was in life.

I can also honestly say that there will be more people who will think more of Mr. Guerrero than they will of Mr. Cowherd. Based solely on his disparaging remarks of Guerrero, he comes across as a third rate Jim Rome. I think it would be in the best interest of ESPN Radio to reconsider Colin Cowherd's employment.

I signed the petition (what little good it will do), but I listened to the clip and I am going to boycott all things ESPN until this pathetic excuse of a person is removed from any and all capacities in ESPN. I have digital cable and have a shitload of sports channels. I also know I can get my friends to switch from ESPN to some other sports channel.

I just had a chance to listen to this, and this guy is just a prick. Even though he doesn't watch wrestling, he still has to bash it, even when something like this happens. He wasn't even listening to his co-host, saying that it is more popular than he thinks. I'm sure we could get a few of these guys who gave emotional speeches about Eddie tonight, to go and teach this guy a lesson.

Fuck you. Eddie's not an athlete? He's not important? Fuck you, Mister Cowherd. Fuck you.

:foc: :foc:

LOL, he looks like a damn...thingy.

A message from Vickie Guerrero
Nov. 14, 2005

On behalf of the entire Guerrero family, Vickie Guerrero would like to thank all the fans for their overwhelming show of support at this most difficult time. Mrs. Guerrero would also like to ask the fans to respect the family’s privacy, most especially the privacy of their children. Eddie’s funeral will be closed to the public.

What an ignorant bigot. How would he feel if people started speculating that Jason Collier's death was because of steroids or drugs or something unnatural?

He knows nothing about pro wrestling and nothing about Eddie Guerrero. The only comment I'll give him is the steroids comment, but it was not presented in a good manner at all. It was simply used as an attack, rather than intelligent discussion.

This guy deserves to get fired. Many radio personalities have been canned for far less than this idiot.

I'm normally against any rash judgement calls like firing a guy over one stupid mistake. But in this case, I'm incredibly willing to make an exception.

When I clicked the link, all I got was a "You won a free* gift!" ad. There was no sound file in sight. But judging by the reaction this guy's getting, I'm about to sign that petition myself.

I dedicate my first post ever to Eddie, and hope this moron gets fired.

Colin Cowherd just wants attention.
