In Friday's NY Post, Phil Mushnick says this:
"After Mike Tirico noted that Niners' coach Mike Nolan, following the death, the day before, of his father, said there was never a question whether he'd be on the sidelines for this game---he would be---Kornheiser could have left it at that.
Instead, in keeping with MNF on ESPN tradition, Kornheiser eschewed silence in favor of my-turn, me-too noise-making. "THAT'S how you honor your father," he soulfully declared.
So then, had Nolan chosen to be with his grieving mother, on this night, what would that've meant? That he dishonored his father? For crying out loud.
After the passing of his father, Tiger Woods withdrew from competitive golf for nearly a month. What should we make of that? All this time we thought he loved his father."
So what are your thoughts on this classic stupid outburst by Kornheiser?

Darth is actually right once in a while... lol... I mean I have actually played competitive sports(a while ago in high school--briefly) and these guys talk as though they know more than I do and the only reason they would is because they get to talk personally to people that I can't ever talk to personally and also attend sporting events for free...

I guess what I would add to this is that everyone deals with a loss in their family and how you choose to deal with it should not be scrutinized or even held up as an example.
If a coach just decides that the right thing to do is coach the next game or stay out of the team's way for one day, one week, or one month, then no one should be judging that.

Kornholer is an idiot.
Look at him, do you think he's ever played one down of football in his life? He looks like the type that has to call his mommy before every show to make sure she's watching. The guy is a joke.

once you have 3 adult adult males interior the sales area there is in basic terms no longer adequate soccer to talk approximately. I truthfully have on no account, ever cherished it while there are 3 announcers interior the sales area. i'm keen on the colour commentator vs. the play by applying play guy. i think of that Pat Summerall and John Madden did it maximum suitable. Al Michaels won't be able to come on the fringe of matching Summerall as a play by applying play guy b/c the game seems to get interior the way of him telling all his thoughts. All that being pronounced, Tony does effective on PTI, different than while he says "Welcome decrease back to the PTI software," as adversarial to "Welcome decrease back to PTI." On MNF it is obtrusive that he would not have adequate to declare so he has to sell the television purpose industry on his theories approximately what the gang would be questioning or what an proprietor would do. None of that's needed. I truthfully have on no account seen a soccer game the place i presumed, "Thank God that they had that third guy interior the sales area, in any different case i'd have neglected the middle call of the third string quarterback's youngest daughter. God Bless, you Tony!"

The ESPN crew has ruined MNF for me. I still watch the games being a devote NFL fan but I do so with the volume off. I can't stand listening to those three idiots.

I was tired of TK before he was on MNF. It was the first time I watched PTI and it was the last time. I shut it off after 10 minutes due primarily to that blowhard.

That's also the reason why I watch MNF without audio.
