Lowell Cohn, who is he?

and who cares what he thinks?

by Laoren on Aug 29, 2008 11:21 AM PDT reply actions   0 recs

Also, why should we be interested in...

…going over to read Cohn’s latest hate-fueled, anti-Beane, anti-A’s rant?

Huh

Beane musta pissed in the guy’s cornflakes or something

The monster at the end of this blog.

Interesting

Iggy posts over on Warriorsworld.

This is what I told him when he agreed with his father that the A’s are a second-rate franchise and Beane deserves the same scrutiny Mike Nolan and Chris Mullin get.

Actually, don't bother. If Lowell Cohn's understanding of the A's is anything like Iggy's...

…then I’m not really worried. Time and time again, Iggy’s getting facts about the A’s completely wrong in trying to defend his POV.

The comment I left there

“It’s posts like this that make me happy. Why? Well, it’s not because I’m also an irrational A’s hater. It’s because, as a writer, I know that if people can get paid for this drivel I am absolutely going to be a very successful person one day. Thank you for the inspiration!”

Cohn

Long ago I got over the sock jock mentality of Lowell. Its not even worth your time to get worked up over his articles. It’s just sad that this kinda reporting keeps him employed.

Shock I meant

I like "sock jock" much better

Very, ahem, evocative.

There were a lot of stupid, long confusing words that I’m sure normal people don’t use. @('.')@

Great point.

That being said, why is this even posted on this site? The best way to handle clowns like this is to ignore them altogether.

I never liked Lowell Cohn

back to his days at the SF Chronicle. The guy is a total fucking moron and I knew this even as a child reading his bullshit opinion pieces. Loser!

Wow...

He obviously has never paid much attention to baseball, how it works, how players are affected by the majors, etc.

What a moron.

I wish I could mindfart like this and get paid.

Who needs homeruns?
