RCS: Anyone who has listened to Colin Cowherd on the radio and watched him on SportsNation can tell there's a significant difference in tone (fewer rants on TV). Do you think that's to the benefit or detriment to the show and its ratings?

Beadle: I think it's a bit of a mixed bag. I think on the one hand TV, or at least the structure of our particular show, was not made to just have Colin rant. Radio for him is just his way of getting up in the morning and blasting whatever he feels like blasting. TV is a little bit more structured.

We have segments, and we have certain details that we need to get in. I think that when it does merit it he does have to go on rants, and I think he's becoming more and more comfortable with that. I also think the time of year that we are in has been interesting. I think once college football really gets under way and the NFL really gets under way he will tend to go more and more on rants. I think it's like that slow part of the year where it's really just baseball right now.
