Around SBN: Kobe Bryant Isn't Up To Speed On Jeremy Lin, 'Linning'

Boycott CBS....my reaction to an insulting Cowher comment


I normally don't say a whole lot on here...I'm a pretty quiet guy, but something got me pretty riled up today. After the Vikings loss(which already had me riled up) I was watching the CBS analysts discussing previously played games. If I knew my way around a computer better, I'd have a video for you, but I digress. Bill Cowher went through the highlights of the Vikings vs. Steelers game and immediately following showed a clip of Dolphins picking off Drew Brees. He then proceeded to make one of the most idiotic comments I've heard in a while. Bill Cowher decides to question the physicality of not only the Vikings and Saints...but the whole NFC! What game was he watching?!

Our team went toe to toe with one of the best teams in the AFC and lost the game on three plays. Number 1, bad call. Number 2, good defensive play right after bad call resulting in touchdown. And number 3, bad luck ricochet off of Chester Taylor's hands. The Steeler's defense stepped up and made plays, I'll give the their due credit. But to have Bill Cowher basically calling out my team when the evidence proves to the contrary is laughable. Not only calling out my team, but the whole NFC? Are we 2-1 versus the AFC....hmmm, I thought so.

I call on Viking nation and the rest of NFC team fans to not take this insult lightly and boycott CBS! It may be rash, I may just be a bit riled up from our first loss of the season, one in which the refs had too much part of. He still insulted my team, and I say we make a stand!

cowher is a moron

the only reason he was ever considered a good coach is because of how good dick lebeau was.

i would but i don’t think it will do a bit of good… yea, vikings aren’t physical enough… maybe he needs to take a look at the replay of Peterson embarrassing William Gay

Cowher is a coach...

And he’s a great coach, but he’s still just a coach. He was known for toughness. Analysis is more cerebral. Not really his strong suit.

Who cares what Bill Cowher thinks?

And a boycott will get you nowhere, a well written letter to Cowher or CBS Sports would have more impact anyway.

Adrian Peterson and the NFC aren’t tough at all.

the picture caption of that hit could read...

No kidding

Hey William Gay…the number on that truck that ran you over was AP 28.

Did anyone hear Peterson screaming after that play? I think the Steeler defense was shit scared of him after that.

Real payback

Someone outta find some pictures of Cowerhdly (spelling is intentional) spewing foam into the face of players and officials as they try to get outta the way of the spray! I thought the dude had rabies the first few times I saw it, but he is still alive, so I guess I was wrong. Post a bunch of his insane, spittle flecked lips, and see how he likes that.

Fuck him, he was after all,
A STEELER!
So no more

Easy guys

You don’t need to call for a boycott. Nobody watches CBS in the first place.

+10 :)

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!
SKOL!

Is that a TV network?

I have been gone from Continental US a lonnnnnng time…

KIDDING!

I know them, they are the same as like a cable network I think, just not as good?

I would rather be IN the Arena than watching from the stands...That is my life!
