Re: Fire Tony Kornheiser
 
Tony Kornheiser is literally the worst broadcaster in the history of the NFL. On multiple occassions already this season I became so frustrated with his inane yammering that I was forced to mute the broadcast so I could actually enjoy the game. This level of frustration has never occured with me towards any other broadcaster, ever, in any sport.

(In fact, the entire MNF broadcast is a bit much. Chris Berman, Tom Jackson, and Bill Parcells are great. I LOVE the Boiling Point segment with Ditka and Parcells. That weird little second field studio with Stuart, Steve, and Emmitt is horrible. Emmitt Smith is an illiterate fool with nothing interesting to say. It's comical to me when they go around and get folk's picks prior to the game game and there's a full seventeen people that need to weigh in on it. But anyways...)

Top Kornheiser Peeves:

- He is the most overdramatic human being of all time
- He cares far more about his fantasy team than the actual game
- He can go at most 15 minutes at a time before saying "Brady" again
- He tries so hard to ask the pointed question to the booth guests, and it's always just awkward and foolish
- He clearly knows less about the game of football than plenty of fans
- His jokes are never funny
- HE NEVER EVER EVER SHUTS UP

Really, two in the booth is a time tested, proven formula. You need a play by play guy with a history in broadcasting, and you need a color commentator with a history in the NFL. The color guy ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS has actually been in the NFL, and it makes a huge difference. Letting a non-NFL alumn do color work is flatly retarded and always has been.

I think three in the booth would be too crowded even if Kornheiser were tolerable, but the fact that he is the literal worst of all time AND he's a third wheel makes the whole thing borderline intolerable at times.

I lived near DC for a long time so have been reading and listening to Kornheiser (and Wilbon) for years. I thought they were semi-amusing, but when PTI started, I had the same reaction as when George Michael's idiotic 'Sports Machine' went national back in the 80s. Wait, these are the best guys in the whole country?!?

Geroge Michael Sports Machine with all his buttons and "Lets go to the tape" was unintentionally hilarious on its own.

As if your opinion needed to be invalidated more so? You couldn't have followed up with a worse tidbit.
