Luigi Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Does anyone else watch PTI here? It's probably my favourite show. My fantasy teams: West Coast Cardinals (WRU), Glasgow Claymores (RLI) (Champions 2012) and Pemberton Foresters (VBL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 In the time after I stopped watching PTI on a regular basis, one of my favorite internet memes popped up.That's pretty much the extent of my interest in PTI right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I do from time to time. I've long since discovered I can't take a steady diet of it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floydnimrod Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 When I was younger I used to watch it most everyday, but since I started working I'm never home for it. And I don't really miss it all that much. Mancakes: The Bandhttps://twitter.com/FloydNimrod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infrared41 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Of the "screaming and yelling" shows, PTI is easily the best in my opinion. I like the show but I don't watch it on a consistent basis. I occasionally download the podcast too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knnhrvy16 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I watch PTI every other day (I have classes during thier air time on Tuesdays and Thursdays), as well as Around The Horn. I have to be honest, watching those two back to back is my favorite hour of television unless there's a game or back-to-back Seinfeld on somewhere. I don't know what it is, but I just love shows like Around the Horn and PTI. PTI is especially great when Steve Young is on the "Five Good Minutes" segment, any conversation that he, Kornheiser, and Wilbon have turns out to be very entertaining.As far as other ESPN shows, I'll watch SportsNation every now and then, but I can't watch a minute of Rome is Burning. I can't stand Jim Rome. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

Don Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I hate Kornheiser and Wilbon with a passion. Worst WaPo writers EVER (and yes, that includes Mike Wise), glad they both dont work there anymore and I cant get the radio station that Kornheiser is on.

Lights Out Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Speaking of douches, Colin Cowherd is a douche, an unapologetic Patriots sycophant, and a borderline racist. He's put me off SportsNation entirely.Also, Skip Bayless definitely qualifies, too. Total , going back to his columnist days, when he would make up rumors about athletes being gay and the like.

Plus I find it really irritating that he keeps talking about Vegas and what they think about various sporting events, apparently unaware of what the line really means.

Sport Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 Speaking of douches, Colin Cowherd is a douche, an unapologetic Patriots sycophant, and a borderline racist. He's put me off SportsNation entirely.Me, as well. Plus I find it really irritating that he keeps talking about Vegas and what they think about various sporting events, apparently unaware of what the line really means. Hint, Colin, it's not their objective analysis of the two teams.I know! The other thing that irritates the crap out of me about him is he makes the false assumption, and he does it all the time, that high ratings for a show or a movie means that it's a quality show or movie. He then uses the ratings of his own show as evidence that he has a good show. He doesn't have a good show. He somehow slimed into a prime slot and is ranting on the controversial issues to get numbers. All you need to know about Cowherd in that regard, he thinks Two and a Half Men is a good show. Also, he openly roots for the Yankees, Patriots, Lakers, Steelers, and USC. He's every annoying kid on the playground that only likes the good teams. I haven't disliked a media personality more than Cowherd ever. His act is transparent. He says shocking things to get publicity and incite emotions from people. To me, that's the sign of a host that isn't talented enough to carry the show on his own merit. The thing is, talented on air personalities don't need to be controversial to have solid and interesting shows. Dan Patrick and Scott Van Pelt are examples of that. They may not get Coward's ratings, but they're far more respected in the game. One more, the other week he was talking about how unlikeable Jay Cutler is. The irony of Colin Cowherd calling someone unlikeable is palpable (to plagiarize myself from another thread). If I was given the choice between having a beer with Jay Cutler or Colin Cowherd, I'd take Jay Cutler every time.It's a shame that babe cohost of his is stuck working with him. Sometimes on Sportsnation you can almost tell that Michelle Beadle doesn't like him. end Cowherd rantYes, I watch PTI from time to time, but I like Kornheiser less and less all the time. He's a doofus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nash61 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 I never have understood the format for Around the Horn. How do the guys score points?

They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.
