An out of character rant for this blog to be sure.

Tony Kornheiser is the worst person to ever call an NFL game. He is awful. Monday Night Football was damn near unwatchable last year solely because of the douchebag. He is stupid. He is not funny. For a professional sports journalist, it is amazing how shallow his knowledge of the game seems to be. The only thing I enjoyed last year were the subtle ways in which Joe Theismann would sometimes put him in his place. Even saying that he put Kornheiser in his place probably overstates the case. I think Kornheiser is too dumb to be put in his place by someone demonstrating a true knowledge of the game and contradicting what just came out of Kornheiser’s mouth.

So what does ESPN do? They can Theismann. They do that so they can bring in the knowledgable but sycophantic Ron Jaworski. Jaworski is a frequent guest on Kornheiser’s radio show and, apparently, a friend. Jaworski would have been a great addition to the broadcast if he were replacing Kornheiser. Bad move, ESPN.
