NeverForget ST#21 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Does anyone else find it strange how advertisements for Colin Cowherd's show / upcoming visit to D.C. are posted all over espn980.com? Isn't the whole creation of espn980 Snyder's doing in order to create a filtered Redskins radio outlet? It just seems counter productive to have the guy in radio whose probably the biggest Skins hater and routinely bashes the franchise plastered all over your supposed "in house" radio site. Just a thought- not surprising that Snyder is doing something irrationally / unconventionally. Let me know what you guys think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkabong82 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 haters flock to him, and this way you give off the image of trying to have both perspectives. unfortunately, cowherd sells right now. he's like a car accident, just violent and sad, but you can't help but look (though we should all do our best to do so and ignore him, he is a waste of space) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenMgr Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 The reason is because Cowherd will be hosting "The Herd" from White Flint Mall in 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nace14 Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 so you are complaing that snyder created a bias media outlet or you are complaining that he's promoting somebody bias against him and not being bias enough himself? i'm confuzzeled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverForget ST#21 Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 im not complaining im just pointing out that it makes no sense... but neither does anything this organization does so im not really surprised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverForget ST#21 Posted March 6, 2009 Author Share Posted March 6, 2009 and i understand that he's hosting his show here, my question is why would SNYDER and SYNDERS RADIO want to go out of their way to promote the guy that is their biggest critic. There's no way whatever espn980 takes away from his promotion event outweighs what cowherd bring in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way whatever espn980 takes away from his promotion event outweighs what cowherd bring in Well wouldn't it be ESPN promoting it? Or cowherds show / organizers promoting it. In a sense they could be "paying" for the advertisements. Ya know, because that's how stations get paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFKFedEx Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 What I don't understand is why he's coming to Washington to promote opening day of the NCAA turni when we don't have any games this year. He won't even be in Washington, but MoCo for God's sake. At least last year Colin was at Clyde's in Chinatown when the turni opened next door at Verizon Ctr. Somewhat more relevant.

BAFGA Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Well, Radio Snyder is an ESPN affiliate. He pretty much can't say "I don't like Cowherd so I'm not going to promote Cowherd's show'. If he did that then ESPN would pull their contract and Snyder will be left with programming a bunch of time on his own. That can get expensive. Snyder doesn't want to have to spend money on his other operations if he doesn't have to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFKFedEx Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 Well, Radio Snyder is an ESPN affiliate. Which is why we're stuck w/ Mike-n-Mike In The Morning. Those guys suck big time. They're supposed to be a national show, yet their content is 80% New York sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
