Fire Tony Kornheiser

[StevieG]

A couple years back or whenever it was, for the MNF doubleheader they put a 3 man team together with Jaws and Vermeil doing the color. They were great together.

I really enjoy PTI because of the chemistry, and I think replacing Tony with Dick Vermeil would be a huge upgrade for the same reason.

This was a great team for football nerds. The thing is that we'll watch regardless. ESPN's trying to get a new demo to watch, and that's the demo that Tony in theory touches.

I do think it's a shame that Vermeil isn't doing games somewhere, he's very good.

That's because Vermeil was Jaworski's HC in Philadelphia. So naturally, they think on a similar wavelength.

This would mean that it would be like having two Jaworskis in the booth. And we only know that there is only room for one.

Would've worked, except emo Dick's tears kept shorting his own mic during national anthem.

Hey guys,

Yet another interesting thread, which is why these forums keep me coming back time and time again....very very well done. You all do such a great job.

I feel as if I've said this before, but I'm continually amazed that people care so much about announcers. Theres literally no announcer that ever makes the game worse for me unless they're intentionally not aware of a football rule. There are several announcers that make the game better for me. I have never ever disliked anyone enough to want them off the air though. Am I really the only one who feels this way? I feel as if I'm spending much more attention watching the game and forming my own thoughts than listening to the announcer.

Anyway, you guys have a great night. I may step out to go to the Bellagio soon, but if you need me then just send me a PM and I'll get back to you first thing in the morning. Sleep tight.

Love,
Assani

We tend to have a thread about every 2-3 weeks talking about random announcers in various sports. And they are always:

Person X sucks, Person Y rocks.

Reply: What, person X rock, person Y sucks!

It's the same everywhere, I disagree with countless announcers that some of my friends love, etc. These never get anywhere, but they can be entertaining.

No way, PTI is always better with Tony no matter who goes with Wilbon. I actually get disappointed when I see that someone other than TK is on. Although I do like Bob Ryan, and other people hate him...don't know why, always liked him since I first saw him on sports reporters way back when.
