alfdogg 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2004 Zack from Dream Job is hosting Around the Horn today. Hopefully this signals the end of Stat Boy, but I doubt it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
razazteca 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2004 This is the best host the show has ever had! All he needs to do now is to learn how to use the mute button. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gert T 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2004 Exactly, don't let those guys push you around, as long as these topics have lasted they must have been taping this earlier today for about 2 more hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2004 Zach Selwyn is letting the panel run the show. He's being too nice. He's better than Stat Boy but Max was the best. Ooh, Jordan and Gretzky are next on the rundown...fun And by the way, is that a new red and blue Sportscenter set? I don't know if I like it yet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
razazteca 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2004 That last blown spot might hurt Zach's chances now that he forgot to let Plashke say his final words before the elimation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2004 He should've muted Michael Smith several times over on this gem: "So last word, Michael Smith. Out of Jordan, Greztky, Armstrong, who's the best?" "I'm not going to talk about that, I'm going to talk about the greatest football player EVER, Jerry Rice" IRRELEVANT ANSWER! Zach was asleep at the wheel. OMG A BEAR ON A TRAMPOLINE!!! THAT'S THE FUNNIEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2004 well let's give him a chance, Stat Boy was the same way...i'd take Zack over Tony anyday of the week... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lando Griffin 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2004 He should've muted Michael Smith several times over on this gem: "So last word, Michael Smith. Out of Jordan, Greztky, Armstrong, who's the best?" "I'm not going to talk about that, I'm going to talk about the greatest football player EVER, Jerry Rice" IRRELEVANT ANSWER! Zach was asleep at the wheel. ACTUALLY... Zach said those three were the top three athletes in the Sportscenter era, and asked the panelists who was in their top three. Smith said he'd take out Armstrong and put in Jerry Rice. So nyah.

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2004 Yeah, the show's actually watchable now. Max was way too full of his own shit (and his new show is a turd). and Stat Boy is friggin STAT BOY! He can't carry his own show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
razazteca 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2004 I think Zach should stay as the regular host, he has the talk radio voice working for him. The voice and the power of the mute button is all that is needed to host the show, he could add his opinion on some topics but we all know that Paige & Mariatti are the stars of the show. Day 2 of the Zach Era begins.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Ocean 3 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2004 I don't see why anyone not familiar with Zach from Dream Job would like this, he hasn't impressed my so far with his hosting. But it's good he gets a chance and hopefully he'll improve. Max is still the only person who can competently host this show, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Tom 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 Compared to Stat Boy, Zach is downright stingy with the points, but I think he parcels them out better. No one should get 10-12 points just for saying a few sentences about something, however salient their points might've been. Zach still has a few rough edges, but I think he could do a good job with the show if they let him run with it. Stat Boy belongs on PTI. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 I still associate Max with ATH. Damn Fox Sports... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 I,MAX feels like a backwoods version of ATH. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Art Sandusky 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 Yeah, and the format is muffed up. Max talking to one dude (unless the one dude is Woody Paige) is far from enthralling TV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrRant 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 I figure if they aren't going to let him do ATH like ATH, then give him something completely different to do whether it's just straight up interviews or something else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
razazteca 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2004 I, Max should be used to hype up IMPACT. Think about it what if Mike Tenay, Russo, Shane Douglas, Don West were all on the show in the ATH format. Everybody could promote their own personal agenda but when somebody tries to shoot, there would be a gunshot sound effect and Max could pause or ME VR them! Think about what if NWA TNA out did WWE in a wrestling show that does not involve wrestling! It would be like Tuesday Night Titans but better! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
