Hogan Made Wrestling 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2005 I guess ESPN figured they weren't quite at blowhard critical mass and could afford to get that much closer. I'm already getting annoyed by the promos for this show. "Quite frankly, that's all you need" is at about 0.6 Everest at this point, and rising. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crimson Platypus 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2005 The good news is that it will get a few viewers at first and then drop hard after people see how bad it is and get cancelled with a quickness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Smues Report post Posted July 21, 2005 The good news is that it will get a few viewers at first and then drop hard after people see how bad it is and get cancelled with a quickness. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I assumed the same thing about Rome is Burning but that's still on, so I'm not getting my hopes up on this pile of crap getting cancelled fast.

The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2005 So they're putting a Stephen A. Smith vehicle in prime time. Are they mad?? I hope this doesn't last long at all.

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2005 The most horrible thing ever would be a Smith/Bayless show though. I've seen the Old School/New School segments and remember them doing PTI last year, and lord did they suck. They shouldn't have two guys who are both annoying blowhards....1st and 10 works better simply because Bayless' boorish act is countered by Woody. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cabbageboy 0 Report post Posted July 22, 2005 You know, if they're going to have these guest hosts on PTI why not to Mariotti/Woody? Thus, Paige can still do his Cold Pizza and 1st and 10 stuff on a monitor (like Buster Olney has done of late with Bayless) and then host PTI with Mariotti. It'd be nirvana for all the Woody Paige marks out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
