Well, I was right. If you are a blogger and you post something complimentary of ESPN’s Colin Cowherd, your inbox will become a repository of white-hot, flaming diatribes about the man’s alleged douchbaggery.

Look, all I’m saying is that when the guy is right, he’s right. I’m certainly not saying he sometimes isn’t a monstrous prick; we all have those moments. Oh, speaking of monstrous pricks…

The screen capture (courtesy of Deadspin)  comes from a mascot contest during yesterday’s episode of SportsNation. In all honesty, the protruding appendage is a tongue, but I think we all know what it really looks like.

The best part: How Cowherd can’t contain his mirth at the obvious look of concern on Michelle Beadle’s face.
