Colin Cowturd on Sean Taylor

He did say that he still believes his original opinions were reasonable based on his past. But at the same time, he was wrong. It's not often he does that.

But then, he took a call from some ditz named Jennifer in California who went on to say that she didn't think Colin was wrong, that Sean Taylor DID wind up involving himself with the wrong crowd, though indirectly from his sister.

His HALF-sister you twit. And no, Taylor DID NOT "involve himself" with the wrong crowd by his HALF-sister dating someone who's brother turned out to be a thug.

Some people still can't stand the fact that this was a random act.

Yeah at least he admitted he was wrong. I really didn't think he would do that. I'm surprised.

Someone had a frank discussion with his producer last week about the offensive errors of Cowherd's ways. And that's all I'll say about that

Yeah, well I'm not going to presume that my convo had anything to do with that. If there's one thing I've learned from working with Cowherd it's that he'll decide what he's going to do. It's hard, very hard, to sway him. And usually the best way to do it is to make it appear as if he came up with it all on his own.

But I deal with him so little.

I'm by no means a Cowherd fan. But at least he stepped up and took the responsibility to apologize (Even if a "frank" discussion helped prod his apology, kudos Smoot). I must admit, my first thoughts were that it was something from Sean's past that came back to haunt him, but I certainly wouldn't have made the statements Cowherd did to millons of listeners.

Who, why, or how won't bring Sean back or any comfort to his family, but I'm glad that my initial thoughts were wrong and Sean's past had nothing to do with this tragedy.

I haven't heard anything from Wilbon in terms of an apology, or did I miss something (I was out of town and off-line for a couple of days)?
