Default Kenny Mayne

I miss Kenny Mayne... I'll never forget "Een-Va-Sooor, he iz de best!" I really wish I could get that as my ring-tone...

I have to watch Grape Nuts commercials now to see him...

Surprisingly, he offers good advice

I know a lot of people didn't like him on the air, but I thought he was hilarious.

I laughed hysterically when he said to the Ky. gov. how they had the second tallest waterfall and asked what his administration was doing to get to #1. Hilarious!

I loved it when he was in the booth with moss. He is a good match mocking Goldberg. Truth be known he is probably a better capper.

He seems good because the others are so bad. He's a bad imitation of Bill Murray.

So they definitely have "killed" Kenny? I was just in denial, hoping he'd be back. The #1 waterfall bit was classic. If any of you are Sports Night fans from back in the day, Kenny makes me feel like the show's still on the air just from saying all the crazy stuff he does. (The 10th Anniversary dvd set of SN is out!) Exactly who does Hank have naked pictures of? The guy supplying the Grey Goose?

He's a ton better than Tessatore, especially when with Moss, Bailey and Hank!
