“Being the host of ESPN's "Around the Horn" should have been the death of a television career. But for Max Kellerman, an annoying loudmouth, it was an inexplicable triumph, if you believe that careers are built on playing the howling ringmaster/emcee/buzzer-pusher for a daily quartet of sportswriters who should know better than to appear on such shows…The chemistry on "I, Max" is of three men - two of them immensely unlikable - who are sharing a private joke. The insults between Kellerman and Holley sound like an act they have been told to perform - in fulfillment of a faux boxing match - and Wolff's oleaginous style would give any sensate viewer the heebie-jeebies.”
