Hmm...stupidest post in the Cove?

Wow, Steely Dan played St Pete?

Don't agree on Idol -

Don't agree on Colbert - worst show on TV, imo.  Daily Show is among the best.

Moyer is too liberal, one-sided, imo.

Dan Patrick is an idiot - Van Pelt and Cowherd are much better.



Duemig is a dirtbag and belongs on a lot of "worst" lists.

i think colbert is hilarious...why do you think it is the worst?

[oregonbucfan]

The Herd is the best sports radio host although he was better when local. Dan patrick is second. Trico show sucks.

Harsh? If you don't like it, don't post in it....

House rocks.
Disagree on Idol as well. Most of it is for laughs, but in the end some talented artists have come out of it.

Moronic show.  I think I have a very good sense of humor - I laugh like crazy when watching the Daily Show, and I've given Colbert a lot of chances, but it just doesn't work for me.
