Colin Cowherd is one of the most notorious sports analysts on TV right now and for good reason. He is constantly delivering a heavy stream of hot takes on his FS1 show The Herd and he has been known to get people upset, especially Baker Mayfield. Cowherd is particularly good at delivering longwinded analogies, especially when it comes to having ex-wives. With this in mind, it shouldn't be surprising that Cowherd busted out yet another odd analogy while speaking about the cheating Houston Astros.
At one point during a rant, Cowherd spoke about the effect this cheating scandal could have on kids. Cowherd makes the point that kids won't mimic the Astros because they are smarter than that. As he explains, kids look at Pornhub all the time but that doesn't mean they will go out and become pornstars.
“Do they become pornstars because they occasionally go to pornhub? Nahhhhhh, they’re kids," Cowherd exclaimed. This clip immediately made the rounds on social media as fans laughed at what Cowherd had to say. The analogy was pretty outrageous especially when you consider the context of what he was talking about. It begs the question: why was Cowherd thinking about Pornhub?
We can only imagine what his producers were thinking during this monologue.
Houston Astros Hit With Massive Penalties After Cheating Scandal
The Astros 2017 World Series has been brought into question.
It's been a wild few months for the Houston Astros after they were defeated by the Washington Nationals in the World Series. The Astros won the World Series back in 2017 so their World Series appearance in 2019 was supposed to be a celebration of their continued growth. However, it was soon reported that the Astros engaged in sign-stealing during their run in 2017 and that Major League Baseball would begin an in-depth investigation. After months of interviews and footage reviews, the league has determined that the Astros did, in fact, break the rules.
According to Jeff Passan of ESPN, the Astros general manager, Jeff Luhnow and manager, AJ Hinch, will be suspended for the entirety of next season. Not to mention, the team will be fined $5 million and will have to give up their first and second-round picks in the 2020 and 2021 drafts.
This is a huge blow for the Astros although it's certainly an expected one. The Astros are fairly hated by baseball fans at this point and with this latest punishment in mind, fans are waiting for even more justice to be doled out. There could be even more sanctions on the way so stay tuned as we will be sure to bring you the latest.
