Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted February 16, 2002 I actually like this show. It isn't an ass kissing fest like most of stuff on ESPN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Tony149 Report post Posted February 16, 2002 I kinda like the show. I haven't seen it in a week, but I like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Hijo Del Lunatic Report post Posted February 16, 2002 WILBON IS GOD~! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hoyakillah Report post Posted February 16, 2002 Wilbon isn't God, but KORNHEISER~! just might be. Seriously, this show is so great. It's a spinoff of the chats the two have been doing every week on Washingtonpost.com, and also stems from their long (friendship?) and work together at the Post and on DC TV. In short, they're probably the best tandem of sports writers in the US, and damnit, they're just so damned funny... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brooding Genius Report post Posted February 16, 2002 Wilbon continues to annoy me, but I'm weird. I swear, he doesn't like anyone I'm a fan of. Still, PTI is a great show. If they put David Aldredge on there in Wilbon's place, it'd rule. And Kornheiser's ESPNRadio show is one of the most hilarious things ever created. "Andypolley!"

Guest phoenixrising Report post Posted February 16, 2002 At first I thought the show would be crap, but I kept tuning in and really liked it. I like the format where they show the topics they will talk about on a sidebar - it keeps the conversation focused. I particuarly like the segments where they have some guys face on a card, and the other reads..."You are so and so and this is what happened..." and the other guy goes into a long spiel defending himself. Hilarious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DrTom Report post Posted February 16, 2002 I've watched PTI from the start, and I like the show. It seems at times, Kornheiser and Wilbon are arguing just for the hell of it, but the dynamic of the show is interesting enough to keep me coming back. "If they put David Aldredge on there in Wilbon's place, it'd rule." I *loathe* David Aldridge. His larynx could disintegrate tomorrow and I would consider it a boon for the sports viewing public.

Guest Brooding Genius Report post Posted February 16, 2002 I only said David Aldredge because: A) He's also from Washington B) In my opinion, he's better than Wilbon Frankly, I'd just like to have Tony and some random guest daily. Kornheiser rules. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Hijo Del Lunatic Report post Posted February 16, 2002 Everybody hatin' on my man Wilbon. Tsk tsk. If they put David Aldredge on there in Wilbon's place, it'd rule. Actually, I did see an episode before New Year's with David Aldridge on it. I think DA's New Year's resolution was to make sure that stalking of Halle Berry works for him, and Kornheiser's resolution was to be black by the end of 2002 so he wouldn't have to be the token white guy on the show anymore. Classic. The show overall wasn't as good as when Wilbon was on, though, because they had to stick to basketball pretty much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ratboy Report post Posted February 16, 2002 I'm all about this show all of a sudden. Great format, great hosts, IMO. Kornheiser and Wilbon have a certain chemistry together, and I'd probably watch less if it were a different combo--much like this week, with rotating commentators.

Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted February 16, 2002 Don't have either guy do the show solo. What makes the show entertaining is the quick 2 minute discussions on numerous topics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Army Eye Report post Posted February 16, 2002 I watch this show every day I can. It rules. Love the format and the sidebar. The quality of the show really drops off when there is a guest host, except for Aldridge, he can hold his own since he's an experienced TV guy anyway. But the chemistry that Kornheiser and Wilbon have is what really makes the show a winner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest hardyz1 Report post Posted February 16, 2002 It's one of my favorite shows on TV. Definitely the best sports show on TV. Have you guys seen "The Best Damn Sports Show Period"? Utterly awful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Army Eye Report post Posted February 16, 2002 Yeah. It's amazing that show is like what, 2 hours long? I've tried to watch it a few times but could only stomach about 10-15 minutes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted February 18, 2002 Anyone watch tonight's show. It really irked me when Wilbon wanted to talk about the Men's Hockey, but Kornheiser and Norman Chad wanted to talk about the Figure Skating again. They also said no one cares about Hockey. Come again...Kornholer guess what, your show is on ESPN your audience isn't going to be people interested in Figure Skating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted February 18, 2002 Actully, Hockey isn't that much of a Hot Sell and the Figure Staking story is somewhat compelling...Although I've gotten sick of it by now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
