      Oh - this was a Huffington Post article?

      I think he's just pissed that Jimmer didn't give some of his points to James Anderson and some of his assists to Nick Martineau. If only Jimmer would've been more democratic - willing to share some of those numbers with the less fortunate on the team.

      No doubt Jimmer is a Republican who is making his baskets and assists on the backs of BYU Basketball's working class...

        No kidding. You can mock my family, deride my faith, but disparage all things Jimmer? :anger:

          I think we all need to congratulate SU on his new gig at Huffington Post. Good luck!

              Jimmer explodes--and then explodes again whenever he needs to as a master of angles and 12 inches.
              Fixed it for him.
              Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                Rereading the article it reminds me of the old Larry King USA Today ... articles. Does he still write them? Is USA today available to read outside of hotels? He is trying to be the contrarian and (weak) humorist for the mere purpose of filling up space and generating discussion.

                LKJ was the patron saint of ellipses....

                    This guy thinks Jimmer has no spot in the NBA.

                      Cowherd really has not been smitten by Jimmermania. He refers to Jimmer as a "nice little story". Nothing more. Not that great.

                      I can gurantee you that if Jimmer were on an elite team, Cow would be singing his praises.

                          Just when I started listening to ESPN radio again because Ryan Ricillo (spelling?) was filling in for Colin Cowherd, Cowherd comes back and I lose interest. Is there anything that Cowherd says that is actually interesting? He's certainly not funny. After watching Sportsnation one time I came away thinking the guy's kind of a nerd. Who did Cowherd replace in that time slot? Was Dan Patrick in that slot before he left?

                          His wannabe contrarian schtick is lame (then again that line from one his broadcasts that they used to run constantly in promos was dynamite -- "The rest of us just cant' figure out a guy like Tiger Woods. Tiger Woods is just different." Is this the best ESPN can do with that time slot? Colin Cowherd has convinced me that unless they put someone on that is downright caustic and impossible to listen to (Stephen A. Smith), ESPN's brand name and interviews they can produce will allow almost any number of radio guys to succeed.

                          Mike and Mike are good in the early morning. I like Scott Van Pelt and really like Ryan Ricillo. I think Doug Gottlieb is great on the radio. Cowherd sucks.

                            Daily Beast follows the HuffPo

                            The Jimmer has been ordained as pro basketball's next white comet. As a student at Brigham Young, where there are rules against drinking coffee and doing the funky monkey, the Jimmer is nothing less than a thick-necked Tea Party poster boy.

                                Exactly my reaction.

                                But isn't asshat one word? Can we get a ruling?
