He is right. I can't debate that. It is the prison capital of the world and the murder capital of the world. http://www.nola.com/opinions/index.ssf/2012/05/addicted_to_its_prisoners_how.html It is another form of slavery in my mind.
Cowherd is a race-baiting, d-bag troll with a national radio audience. He's basically a coherent version of Condon. If you feel the urge to listen to sports talk radio in the morning, I'd encourage you to look elsewhere and stop feeding the troll.
Look at the forest...not a tree. He's bashing the greatest sports venue in all of America. EVERY city has places tourists shouldn't go. He's beating a dead horse. The guy has an anatomical anomaly...his holes are interchanged as evidenced by $hit coming out his mouth.
That is a pretty damn large tree...prison capital of the world and murder capital of the world. Yes, every city has places you shouldn't go but till our politicians fix these problems, I have stated, I see nothing wrong with what he said. It was the blunt honest truth. Again, I ask what did he say was statistical wrong?
L.A. also has a huge crime problem, as does NYC and D.C. I didn't hear him bashing any of those cities for being unworthy of the greatness of the Pro Bowl. Cowherd is wrong far more often than he's right, and that's not even up for debate. Exhibit A: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/dcsportsbog/2010/11/colin_cowherd_rants_on_john_wa.html#more Exhibit B: Claiming that people who call the player formerly known as Ron Artest a thug are engaging in "racial code speech". He's also been one of Goodell's biggest cheerleaders in transforming the NFL into a flag football league in the name of safety, even saying that he hasn't gone far enough in that regard.
I say if you don't like New Orleans, then don't come here. I, for one, don't want some turd NO-bashing loser here anyway....
