Guest Smues Report post Posted July 15, 2005 Here's a side question: Mariotti keeps saying Tony K. hates him -- is this legit? If so, what was said to start this?... Yeah it's legit. Kornheiser has mentioned on his radio show several times that he hates Mariotti and that he's a lying weasle. I don't know the full story but Tony has said several times that Mariotti lied to him about not wanting some job of Tony's and then taking it. And I guess a few years ago one of the people who works on Tony's radio show, I think he said it was the producer at the time, was at a bar drinking and there was Mariotti bashing the hell out of Kornheiser to whoever he was talking to.

Mik 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2005 Looks like suspicions were correct. Stephen A. Smith has gotten his own show. It's called Quite Frankly and it will be on 6:30 ET. Just saw a commercial during Sportscenter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest *KNK* Report post Posted July 18, 2005 ESPN is just now poker and talk shows. It's a shame FOX sucks so bad that ESPN is still the only attractive national sports themed channel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kkktookmybabyaway 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2005 Here's a question: A few times now ESPN has had this hippie "Hot Topics" show that I guess also airs on ESPN News instead of ATH at 5 p.m. Is there a reason for this? (ATH was on yesterday so I'm hoping this was a case of they couldn't get four talking heads...) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted July 26, 2005 I'm glad someone else brought up Dana Jacobson seriously bringing her dating/sexual frustrations out on Cold Pizza. Note that she was hitting on Woody and not Skip Bayless....this tying into my theory on Bayless being gay. Skip Bayless seems like a woman hating faux chauvanist pig who is actually doing it to hide being gay. Anyone else agree? And yes, Jason Whitlock sucked on PTI....but then that isn't news to anyone who has ever watched Sports Reporters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Smues Report post Posted July 26, 2005 I'm not watching SportsCenter to see the final segment of PTI... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't blame you. I wonder if they're using this overlap to get more people to watch Sportscenter who watch PTI, or to get more people who watch Sportscenter to watch PTI.

therealworldschampion 0 Report post Posted July 28, 2005 But yeah, he's terrible on PTI. In fact, I think everyone but Wilbon and Tony are lousy on the show. I don't mind Smith and Marriotti on ATH, but for some reason, everyone but the actual hosts seem wooden and unnatural on the show. Actually, the Kornheiser-Norman Chad episodes were pretty damn good in my opinion... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
