Joe T. takes a "jab" at MNF

[dmek25]

he might be alittle bitter, but he is right. mnf is always looking for a little glitz. but i think jaws is a huge upgrade over Joey T. and i even like Theismann

Yeah but why not have Jaws and some other analyst? TK is fun to listen to but MNF gets too annoying. Thats why I just watch at bars, so the volume of the TV is off.

I've actually been disappointed in Tony Kornheiser on MNF. The format isn't really suited towards his abilities.

On his old show on ESPN Radio, he is very witty and really funny when telling stories. The problem is, he had virtually unlimited time to make an impact, whereas with MNF, he's got to get it down to about 5 seconds. So far, he hasn't adjusted well if you ask me.

One thing about Jaws though -- for people who think Theismann talked too much, there isn't much difference between him and Joey T. Jaws can blabber with the best of them.

Our favorite restaurantor oozes with a God complex that makes me sick. But i love me some chicken rolls at his Alexandria bar.

I had the crabcakes and filey mignon dinner -- it was fabulous.

I said before I thought that Joe should go to NFL Network. I think that would be good environment for him.


I think a lot of people who watch football games in order to see football being played will be sympathetic with his comments about the current broadcast. Although, I sensed the other night that perhaps a shift has taken place. It looked and sounded as though, someone said something to somebody, or a meeting took place, or a memo went out. Football was much more front and center.

Yeah good point, Tony just isn't at his best when he has to get in quick thoughts. He's much better in a more free flowing type of environment. It always seems like Tony and Jaws are competing with each other and stepping on each other's toes.

And do they really need to do a halftime version of PTI?? A lot of the time because of the crowd Tony and Wilbon can't hear each other and it ends up looking like a train wreck.
