Can Tony Kornheiser get through an entire MNF broadcast without mentioning Favre? - Page 2

I'm just wondering if they'll find some way to blow the entire 49ers team and continually belittle us while we're winning...again.

I say he does it in the pregame. He'll be talking about Warner's great year and he'll say "speaking of older QB's, how about Brett Favre."

Russ called it. Favre in the pregame, before he mentions Fitz or Quan.

He will discuss Montana, Steve Young, and Jerry Rice ad nauseaum.

Here's another thing he'll do. In the context of Mike Singletary and the great Bears teams, he'll bring up the 2006 fiasco.

Kornheiser ruined Monday Night Football.

I will be forced to listen to him so I am hoping I see some anti Kornheiser signs on the screen.

does anyone anywhere like this guy? Even his co-hosts can't stand him? Does his mother like him? Is she alive?

Worst nightmare? Being stuck on a desert island with Michael Irvin and Tony Kornheiser(and no earplugs).

We go to the game -- and record it. Theoretically to review the ref calls we didn't like.

However, if we won, we'll watch the whole thing again during the week.

He did it, If we'd a done vbookie on this someone would have made A LOT of cash...

In all fairness that pass play was a definite Favre type moment, I think any broadcaster would have mentioned it.

You are correct, sir.

It was a good effort by Kornheiser, though. He just had it slip in the final minutes of the game.

no way, he blew it when he slammed the crowd for not likin a play call in the 4th.

I was talking about him making an effort to not mention Brett Favre the whole game. He went all the way into the final 4 minutes, the latest it's been so far for him on MNF.
