If u watch the PTI show on ESPN I have a question. Do they pay Michael Wilbon 2 be wrong on 95% of the positions that he takes? The guy almost never is correct on anything he says.

Im more an Around the Horn Guy . but yeah , when I watch PTI ive noticed that. He kinda annoys me .

Tony Kornheiser is the one that annoys me....and Tony is terrible on Monday Night Football.

Both of those guys annoy me. Personally, even though he's a pain in the ass, I enjoy watching Skip Bayless on ESPN First Take, especially when he goes head to head against Stephen A Smith. I never get tired of them debating.

And see, I think Tony is hilarious on PTI BUT I CAN'T STAND HIS ASS ON MNF! He's so fuckin' outta place on there. It's like he's trying to fnd his niche there and he's so awkward in doing so. But PTI is good show. I don't watch it to see who's right or wrong, because I usually form my own opinions but I TiVo ATH and PTI. Tony Reali is an undercover brotha .

dont watch it anymore because of Tony K.

both of them were two of the best sports writers in the country. I think they got PTI-zed and fell in love with their own voices. I still like PTI, but don't watch it as much.

They've become parodies of themselves, and Wilbon comes off as a jerk in his Washington Post chats.

Co-sign. Dennis Miller was much better on MNF.

SUPRMAN said:

But that's like saying drinking urine is better than drinking vomit.

SUPRMAN said:

The irony of the Dennis Miller MNF stint is this.

Sportswriters and commentators roasted Miller as an analyst.

Yet 90% copy his comedic style.

MuthaFunka said:

I'll take your word for that but it's probably true.

But all that aside. I liked Dennis Miller, I could relate.
Kornheiser is a jackass trying to hang out with the cool guys.

Miller and Kornheiser - Have no business in the booth. Ever.

MuthaFunka said:

John Riggins would be the perfect fit for MNF.

Woody Paige. He's a nut .

if its greek to him, he'll be in a toga that same day!...

Graycap23 said:

Yeah I go that route sometimes.

MuthaFunka said:

Woody is my fave on that show

MajesticOne89 said:

I love when he gets "lost" in his line of thought and Reali MUTES his ass for it! And his chalkboard comments are always funny, too.

I miss Michael Smith though, he brought that "gullyness" to the show.

post a pic to remind me...

MuthaFunka said:

You know, whenever I'm able to catch the show, it grows on me. Hated it when it started out. But guys like Adande, Cowlishaw, etc. -- even guys I don't normally like, like Mariotti -- have good chemistry.

MuthaFunka said:

Smith is off the show?

i mean!

namepeace said:

I caught the very 1st season when it had the dude that does the boxing analyst gig for them as the host, THAT'S how long I've been watching these cats. Yeah, they have good chemistry. The old crusty dude from Boston, Bob Ryan, is also hilarious when he says "It stinks!" whenever he doesn't like something .

Graycap23 said:

Yeah, he does ESPN 360 now. Smith came back on when Lil Wayne (Yeah, I know, right? ) was on their in early Feb. They're both from Nawlins, that's why they asked Smith to do that one show.
