TV Critic Quote of the Day

From New York Press' sports-debate duo of C.J. Sullivan and Brandeis alum Dave Hollander, as they tackle Tony Kornheiser and "Monday Night Football":

SULLIVAN: Yes, he was flat the first week. He needs to come out swinging like Cosell in the future. Do you remember one of Cosell's first games, when he got drunk and threw up on Don Meredith's boots and had to leave the booth at halftime? At least Kornheiser hasn't done that, yet.

Kornheiser needs to bitchslap that chuckle head Joe Theismann and carve out his own niche. Given his track record, he probably will... the game needs a wild civilian, and Kornheiser is football's best hope.

HOLLANDER: Kornheiser would regain my full respect if he got blotto and puked on Theismann.

Yes, mine too. But it would probably lead to his firing from ESPN and the end of PTI, which would officially give me no more reasons to ever watch the Worldwide Leader.
