Default Disappointed w/ ESPN Monday Night crew

Mike Tirico, I could care less I am indifferent, but Tony Kornholer and Joe Thiesman? Terrible, like watching Bill Walton, Todd Christianson and Dennis Miller. I will have to watch on mute. Not to be anti-Semitic, but Kornhieser just simply sucks, I hated his show with Kevin Wilbon I just can't stand him and his voice. I think ESPN could do better.

I don't like the way Kornheiser always has to contradict Theismann like he is still on his show. But I do like PTI. I think he will be better than Dennis Miller was though.

I don't know if he will be a regular or not, but Dr. Phil was on one of the pre-game shows yesterday. I hope it was a one time thing.

Dr. Phil? You are joking? I would hate to have to not watch Monday night Football anymore. I liked PTI without Kornhieser.

They should have kept Madden and Michaels.

I like Michaels, but Madden drawing all over the screen is annoying at times in my opinion. My favorite is Joe Buck.

Dr. Phil gave an analysis of the dynamics of the Parcells/TO relationship. That is what gives me hope that it was just a one time thing.

Hi Spit,

You beat me to it. This is like listening to VERY BAD High School announcers. I will keep the sound turned down, and hope I don't have to look at that little hair thing.

Thank you for starting this...

I just got home from working out and was watching the Vikings/Redskins game while on the treadmill. I got sick of these guys, they suck.

Mike Tirico: except for skin color he exactly like Brent Mussberger, what a yahoo sycophant, I hate listening to this kiss-ass (...ever seen the movie 'Drowning Mona'? '...YEEAAAHHHHH, YA KISS AAASSSSSS!!!')

This guy (Tony Kornholer, good one greybeard) is like some of the sports goofs that I used to hear when living in New York, absolutley nothing positive to add when the conversation begins.

Joe Thiesman: Like Walton (who I hate) but a slight step up, I just hate the arguing...let us watch the game in peace Joe ...PLEEEEAAASE!

Alas...the days of Dandy Don, Howard, and Frank are long gone.

Joe Buck (all sports), Keith Jackson (all sports), and Vin Scully (baseball) are about my favorites of all time...I did like Merlin Olson as a color annnouncer for football. Chick Hearn for basketball though.

I can't stand Joe Buck, he is not objective and always injects his own morals into his commentary. I can't use him. I will say the biggest Jack-ass behind the mic is one of my own Milo Hamilton, I am an Astros fan, but Milo needs to hang em up.
