Kornheiser leaving ESPN Radio!?

Post by Robert K. »

I was just listening to The Tony Kornheiser Show on ESPN Radio, and Tony announced that the show will be off the air towards the end of March (I think!). I'm not that clear on what exactly the reasons were though...

Any other fans of the show hear about this and/or know what's going on?

Yea I heard that last week, Tony said he just has to much on his plate...he said the way PTI has taken off plus he still want to do the post thing so the radio show had to go...also he need to get the bandwagon out of the garage!!!

haha... yeah, I really hope he does that again this year! This really is the year to do it... the buzz will never be greater, even in a season where the 'Skins are widely thought to be SB contenders. :D

One thing TK said that I was surprised at... he said that if the ratings for his show were higher around the country, he wouldn't be making this announcement. I loved the show, and thought it was doing well pretty much everywhere, but he said that several large markets dropped the show in favor of local programming.

I can't wait for my local cable company (Adelphia) to offer their DVR service, then at least I can "record" PTI every day so I can watch it at night :)

Yep, PTI is about the most entertaining sports show there is, and Kornheiser and Wilbon are as knowledgable as anybody out there. :)

I do too.

Neither can I.
