Default I Enjoyed Tony Kornheiser On MNF

Am I the only one? Yes he was awkward at times but I like his sense of humor, plus he does have some knowledge of the game.

John Gruden should be Awesome in this role.

Yes, and I speak for everyone that I know.

Are you kidding? Did you watch any of the NFL Draft on NFL Network? I kept turning it on cause it was such a train wreck I couldn't look away. Marshall Faulk was as bad as anyone I'd ever seen and Gruden was worse.

I would rather watch paint dry (great quote involving "Watching Paint Dry, sports movie, kudos if you know it) then watch the NFL Draft.

Kornheiser was terrible, Gruden's gonna be awful, Jaworski's a douche and Tirico's annoying.

Trust me, watching paint dry will be far more entertaining than Gruden will be on MNF.

Not surprising coming from a Kornholeser fan.

Glad to see him go on MNF. I loved his ESPN radio show, probably my favorite sports radio show ever. I enjoy PTI periodically, but he was tedious at best on MNF.

Three men in a booth for any sport is a trainwreck.

TK's radio show was VERY good!. he would talk about his wife driving her SUV. and the morning wilbon drove away from the gas pump with the hose still attached to his vehicle, while on the phone with TK! VERY funny stuff.

Kornheiser was absolutely awful; completely unprepared and not knowledgable. I actually think he's good on that show with Wilbon, but he was overmatched on Monday Night football. Why on earth do they feel the need to put guys like Kornheiser, Limbaugh and Dennis Miller in the booth? They don't add anything to the broadcast.
