Plus I thought he always was a great writer and radio host - I have always liked the guy a lot. So that is why it is so suprising to me that I find myself unable to stand him in the Monday night booth. His brand of commentary just doesnt work for this format. I would bet money that he does not make it to season 3.

Dude, he writes articles daily for the Washington post sports section and hosts his own "let's yell at each other about sports" show(fun to do in person, painful to watch). He knows his stuff, but says a lot of stupid shit for attention. Kornheiser just has this intangible quality that makes me want to yack. I hope Theismann crushes him the next time he says something condescending. I could write pages about how much I hate ESPN(but still consistently watch) and all of their personnel choices, formats, and coverage. To me their only saving grace is the occasional hilarious commercial.
