Heard on "The Herd"

Colin Cowherd, host of "The Thundering Herd" on ESPN Radio weekday afternoons, will undoubtedly be a frequent attraction on "Now That's Just Dumb!" I've been listening to him long enough to be unsurprised by some silly things that come out of his mouth, case in point, this afternoon when talking about his weekend:

"I took my daughter ice skating this weekend. She took a spill and I asked her if she wanted some ice. It stuck me as odd because if someone cuts themselves with a knife, you never say, 'Hey, can I get you a knife?' But when someone falls on the ice, we offer them ice."

Admittedly, that is paraphrased, not actually quoted. But I promise you that if you find the audio you'll hear something very, very close to that. The meaning, whatever the heck it is, is unchanged.
