I've liked it even more the last couple of days without Mariotti.

Has he finally taken that job with the Boston Globe he seems to so greatly desire?

Honestly, I hate him as the Midwestern "Representative" when he constantly exudes East Coast Bias.

Honestly how can you not love Woody Paige

No, how can anyone honestly stand that idiot is beyond me. I'm surprised he even has a job in journalism to begin with.

Now, personally, I like J.A. Adande. Come on. Who doesn't want to go to the Adande Lounge?

They're columnists...they aren't paid to be objective. They are paid to be opinionated.

The SportsCenter, ESPNEWS, Fox Sports Net, and your local network sportscasters are journalists, they aren't paid to opine, they are paid to report.

There's a difference...

As for the original post, agreed, it IS too much. The show's a bore, but they needed something to fill the early evening time slots. The majority of their original programming has been mediocre and met with minimal success. Oh well.

He amuses me. The key is not to take him seriously-I don't think he takes himself seriously.

On the same "Paige", I like Kornheiser because he too amuses me. :P

The current host doesnt try to be the star: good

Skip Bayless: bad (I think he's racist.)

Overall: ATH is an ok show that complements the much better and funnier PTI.

Really bad: PTI "ending" during SportsCenter (a really bad "sports news" show, but its all we got)

I'll agree with you that Woody Paige about the worst of all ESPN personalities (this includes Stuart Scott and Tony Kornheiser) and is more misinformed than President Bush.

Jim Rome and Skip Bayless in my opinion are both great sports journalists and by far are some of the best talent currently on air with ESPN. And just because Skip doesn't like Terrell Owens does NOT make him a racist.

I think Woody Paige is (well, when he was a writer) similar to Jeff Schultz here in Atlanta: A sports writer who is supposed to be more humorous than informative.

He's a pretty good writer, if you would look at his past Denver Post articles....

Add to the fact that he normally writes about the Hawks and you've got a great combo there...

I've got to say this: Skip Bayless is horrible, IMO. Jim Rome is alright, although it seems like he's infatuated with his own voice.

I love Around The Horn, I always try to catch that show.

to call Rome a journalist is like calling Lichtenstein the largest nation on the planet.

Rome and Bayless are as far from journalism as you can get.

Word.

And I find Woody Paige entertaining. He's knowledgeable as well as funny.

Jim Rome is a worthless, uneducated dikc.
