  • Here's Colin's thing:

    US TV just wants games with American teams with big stars or if it's a Canadian team, one that can draw a BIG interest level, such as the Canadiens.

    Put that against the CBC, who wants just Canadian teams or US teams with Canadians on them (New Jersey, Pittsburgh, Colorado), and you really have a conflict of interest issue.

    That's what happens when you have a league in two countries.

  • This video makes me wanna start using Bounce detergent...

  • Colin Cowherd is such an idiot, so your saying that it would of been better to have two small market teams in the NHL in the Stanley Cup Finals, as long as their from the states? Just because of the Neilsen Ratings? You are just another stuff american (not saying that all americans are, but he seems to be the sterotype).

    And is it just me or if I remember right, wasent the Colts v Bears super bowl boring as all hell. I will take Ottowa in the Stanley Cup over most american teams anyday, wanker.

  • @vcisdaking what it sounded like to me is that he was looking at it from a fan's perspective. What american that is a casual hockey fan going to do when they hear that it's Ottawa/Anaheim in the cup finals? They're gonna turn on something else because the casual fan wants to see the star players or the storied American franchises like the Rangers in the finals. That's why the Red Wings/Penguins finals got more viewers, the star Crosby vs the storied Red Wings. Thats what the casual fan wants

  • Colin Cowherd is a clown who couldn't be Jim Rome's intern. Ottawa beat Pittsburgh and the "hot" Buffalo Sabres each in five games- an almost sweep- and then lost to a more physical Anaheim team. Ottawa is the capital of Canada and is more like Washington than any city in Wisconsin or whatever Cowherd said. Every Canadian knows were Ottawa is and it does come up in Google Maps and it is the sixth largest Canadian city so on behalf of Ottawa Go Fuck Yourself Cowherd!!!

  • Reggie Bush and Vince Young become "stars"? LOL!!!! More like major busts.  Hey cowherd, I though Gruden going to U Miami was a sure thing? Just like Harbaugh going to carolina was a sure thing too, both according to you. Idiot.

  • @sonofsarek reggie bush is a star and vince young was his first year. look at the time the vid is posted. but reggie bush is a damn good player. vince young was barely that, now he is shit.

  • this guy is a genious when it comes to the NFL... but when it comes to any other sport... ehhh......

  • yea too bad ottawa i honestly believe they should of won a stanley cup within a 4 year span zdeno chara, chris phillips, anton volchenkov, joe corvo, brian pothier, wade redden before the 25 million, meszaros, alfredson, heatley, marian hossa, spezza, mike fisher, vermette, comrie, chris neil, ray emery, matin gerber, i mean all these players in are being paid millions and all developed by the senators Cowherd is good but sometimes he cares too much about market shares than the actual game

  • Why does Colin hate the city of Buffalo so much? what did we ever do to him

  • You can't even google earth it, its the capital of canada. The bills in toronto is a total failure, nfl as a game is overatted, 70% ot the games are unwatchable unless you have money riding on the game.The defences this year have been terrible, the other day,they let star receivers wide open from fifty yards out, like reggie wayne on monday night, sick to watch.

  • Does T.O. end up in Seattle, or Buffalo? Lulz.

  • As a Red wings fan and living in Michigan, Ottawa is not the most hated franchise. The most hated franchise is Canada is definately Montreal.

  • If you guys don't like listening to honest opinions (this means they are not always facts), don't listen.

  • @sallyed66 So he sounded like he was trying to make some predictions what's the big deal

  • "Ottawa is invisible even by Canadian standards."

    Uh......it's the fourth largest city in our country, not to mention the capital.

  • And the most hated Canadian NHL franchise by about 29 other team's fans.

  • i think a lot more people hate the maple leafs or canadiens, at least by all the other 29 you mention

  • ... Wow the checks the NFL writes to Cowherd for promotion are certainly being put to use.

  • T.O. did went to Buffalo.

  • did u hear what he said about the orioles! ugh, the guy is an ass.

  • He's right. You know your sport is doing good when guys get busted for steroids and all anyone is worried about is how it will impact your fantasy team.

  • ottawa sucks

  • Stupid retard.

  • Hunski?!?!?

  • "You can Not be Serious!!!"Colin wouldn't even know who I'm quoting the man can stick to football but I don't think the NFL needs nor wants him. If he knew anything it would be that you can walk up to the Ducks ticket office on game day during the playoffs and get a seat. In Ottawa people routinely get into fistfights when the box office opens. Yes I guess not many Americans care about the Sens, here's news NOBODY cares about the Ducks, the NHL has 2 countries in it asshole only the north cares.

  • If Ottawa was in the USA, it would be in the top 10 for most populated cities.

  • He's saying what's right, Ottawa in the Finals is not good for the league.

  • How is it not good for the league? That's total bunk.

  • Uhhh, no one in the USA cares about the Senators, like it or not. What were the ratings for Ducks Sens vs. Wings Pens? And like he says Canada viewers dont count in Neilsens.

  • No one likes the Ducks either. Both are still fairly new teams. It is good exposure for both teams to gain new fans.

  • Right, but as he said, Nielsen ratings don't cover Canada, so the ratings will be skewed because of Ottawa in the finals.

  • I don't think some of you guys get it..What Cowherd is saying is that these leagues(NHL/NBA) are trying to get back into the mainstream, but it's hard to do so when you have teams who are not really relevant to the mainstream/major media markets..The NFL lucks out because they have teams in most of the major markets, and almost all of them(Cowboys, Pats, Giants, etc) are consistently good in recent memory..

  • You Canadians need to grow a sense of humor and not be so easily offended. Hockey sucks right now and you all know it.

  • can't even google earth ottawa? man this guy in honestly retarded. ottawa is invisible to canadians? it's the fucking capital, this city's mentionned 7 or 8 times every newscast. i wish i could backhand slap colin coward.

  • HAhaha Im canadian and he's right lol Ottawa is useless. Its a pathetic boaring city that no one cares about. I dont blame people from other countries not knowing where it is or that its our capital. Its a town full of losers!

  • lick my balls, asshole. come here and say it, chump. otherwise shut the fuck up.

  • hahaha Well I would come lick your balls and heck even suck your dick but first Id have to become an Ottawa Senator thus declaring myself an eternal homo from a cock suckin city.

    lol you Dickass

  • puuuuuussssyyyyyyy.bitch

  • nice come back, not suprised though, most people from Ottawa cant form proper sentences, heck Im suprised they can dress themselves every morning. Next time you reply try put some effort into it..... well that is if you can pull yourself away from having sex with your mom for a few minutes.

  • here's the thing: only you care about making lame internet comebacks because you're a huge pussy in the real world.

    coming from the guy who used the term "dickass"

  • Thats odd I would have thought that you would have been familiar with the term dickass, since thats where yours usualy is. But youre right I probably wouldnt fight you, its illegal and immoral to fight people with downsyndrom. Thats the main reason I dont fight people from Ottawa. I bet youre wearing your helmet right now arent you?

  • you're still talking? why do you care?

    hey, since it seems like you have alot of time on your hands.. this spring, when your shitty hockey team doesn't make the playoffs, why don't you go get a job so you can buy yourself a life?

  • Hey Penis breath, I dont need a job, my daddy is rich so he pretty much lets me slack and o what I want. Ya its a tough life, but hey it could be worst, I could be a senasnore fan living in shittown errrr I mean ottawa, pickin my nose and eating what I find... oh wait Ive mistakenly just given a perfect discription of you. Sorry bout that, no harm meant!

  • your one pathetic looooooooooooser!

  • this guy is such a tool.

    it's called sports, yes it might be a business, but things don't happen in a game just because the tv ratings will be better. what a total fucking doofus.

  • dissing himself by wearing that jersey...sad

  • so true

  • What dead horse did you steal your teeth from...You BUCKTOOTHED JACK ASS!!!

  • He's not upset that smaller cities have winning teams, he's upset because most aren't as relevant to the masses. Green Bay would be the exception because they have been good for so long and have a star QB who everyone loves. But he is saying that hockey and basketball are falling off, and having these small market/small fan base teams play in the championship isn't good for ratings.

  • Yea nobody knows where Ottawa is, It's just the capital of Canada....

    Is this guy for real? Why is he upset that smaller cites have winning franchises? Why doesn't he rip the green bay packers, by his logic, it would suck to have the packers in the superbowl, yet I bet everyone would actually love to see that small city team win.

  • Even though I'm a Blues fan, I respect Canadian teams because hockey was invented in Canada, a large majority of hockey players are born and raised there (seriously, name one hockey player born in California, Texas, or Arizona), and they actually support their teams like how Alabama supports college football.

  • I have to admit I had a little laugh there but that guy doesn't know what he's talking about when it comes to Ottawa. We have a sellout crowd just about every game and tons of fans; the Sens aren't nobodies. They're just not American :P

    Although, Ottawa is a little off-the-map. I mean, almost everyone thinks Toronto is the capital.

  • go sens go from long island new york fuck colin cowherd and his george bush ass

  • at least we're not canada

  • YOU WISH...BITCH!!!

  • why show the yankees with strugling?

    LETS GO YANKEES! WE'RE ON FIRE!

  • Hockey is bigger than anyone thinks notyoursavior78 Gretzky did give the game a bit of life, but check out who's in the league now, Sidney Crosby, Jordan Staal, Alexandre Ovechkin, that's who gives the sport life today, three guys who are on pace to be BETTER than Gretzky.

  • one of the stanely cup finals games got eh lowest rating in the history of NBC. i live in minnesota were the state high school toruney is the most attending hihg school tourney in the country and i love hockey but not alot of people do

  • I Love Hockey!!! Every single year, it seems to switch with Football. I can't pick a favorite because one year Hockey if my fav and then next year Football is. Right now I'm watching some Don Cherry Rock'em'sock hockey with a friend. Just saying Hockey isn't much of a draw in the USA anymore unless you live in the north and even then...hey at least Hockey isn't Soccer.

  • most of you people don't get it. Its all about ratings and attracting new fans to the game and people in places atlanta or nashville dont care about hockey if its ottawa in the finals. If its teams in the south that do well then they start to grow bigger fanbases in new areas which is good for the game since up here in canada we support and watch hockey no matter whos playing. NHL will always be popular in canada so they try to focus on gaining attention in the us to make more $

  • Well it hasn't worked in what ten years at least? That's why NHL is on OLN/Versus. The sport always was a niche sport, it just got a little mainstream because of Gretzky, but after Gretz retired the genral public never stayed with the sport. Look at basketball now, it is in the same category, just it is still on ESPN. btw GO Flyers!!! Back in the playoffs this year.

  • Bettman is the problem about the league, he never takes any blame for the state of the league, he'll talk about how good the attendance is and how nothing is wrong. He made a HUGE mistake abandoning the northern states and Canada to the south just because Gretz came to LA. Just move teams back north. All these sunbelt teams winning the cup. I can't fit everything... But I love hockey and yeah there was zero reason to expand to Nashville I HOPE they move to Hamilton!! Please!

  • thank you for proving my point, you think you are so good, that you can Proclaim Canadian as a RACE, you aren't black/white/other you are a RACE,

    its not like Canada is a NATION making being canadian a NATIONality

    its not like canada is a NATION making it a NATIONality

    by the way great job in the stanly cup

  • Its funny how everyone is saying the Stanley Cup got bad ratings... Well to me, out of the 5 game series, I only noticed 1 game, 1 game on NBC. The rest of the 4 games were on the Canadian Station. At least in New York, I don't know about any place else. Oh well, as long as Buffalo didn't make it... LETS GO RANGERS!

  • The NHL is Dead....and Jim Rome is trying to be Colin Cowherd.

  • no one watches Ottawa, fact.

  • this guy is an idiot.

  • who????

    sounds like another jim rome wanna be

  • How do people, like this guy, get jobs? what he just said was 5 minutes of garbage. The sens are the team that should be in it the most not some gay american team! Hockey is and always will be Canadian so who gives a shit about fuckin ratings. Ottawa is the capital of Canada so why dont you do me a favor Cowherd, GO FUCK YOURSELF

    Sens will win and thats the way it should be

  • fag.i hope this guy dies.MOTHER FUCKER DONT DISS OTTAWA U UGLY DEFORMED PRICK!

  • This was freaking classic.

    Ducks in 5.

  • I know this was almost two years ago, but damn you got it right on.

  • I kid you not....I called every series that year and hit about 80% of them on the head as far as how many games it would take.

  • OK of course u can google earth ottawa RETARD don't you know ottawa is the CAPITAL of our wonderful country? God and if you think it's Toronto, you're sadly mistaken./

  • Obviously that was a joke. I like the Sens this year. I liked the Ducks in '03...not soo much now but in this moment they still have Giggy. Late.

  • Great job snyehh! This was an excellent video. Oh, that damn Murphy's law! hahaha

  • Thanks, couldn't of made it without your vids for inspiration though.

  • @snyehh lol @ your car breaks down = car engulfed in flames!

  • 100% awesomeness

  • Are you fuckin dumb? this guy is an idiot. Why would the cup go to a city where there is no snow and where no one plays hockey?

  • the only thing I hate more than hockey cities with palm trees is Canadian teams.

  • Where do you think hockey was born you dumbass? in Canada with Canadian teams,what do you have against them anyway.

  • every Canadian I have ever talked to, EVER, has been a huge arrogant prick, and dont say Im only seeing a selected popluation, because ive seen them in all walks of life, and they think they are God's gift to earth.

    and I never denied hockey being created in canada--so dont call me a dumbass.

  • lol, yup we're all pricks

    way to paint it all wiht one brush

    you fucking moron

  • oh, and for examples of this arrogance, see the comments for this video

  • I think from a team standpoint Senators v. Ducks is a good match-up just from a city standpoint it is a joke. Could the teams be any further apart either? The Sabs never showed up in the playoffs though. What was up with that? Good work on the vid, I heard this on Insider.

    I like the Crippler picture, I used to watch wrestling heh

  • u fucking suck, you don't even know wat ur talking about

    when you speak, does shit come out? coz thats what it sounds like.

    GO SENS GO!
