    Very interesting. I also didn't know the WSOP wasn't on ESPN anymore, guess I haven't been paying attention.

    Likes to air his dirty laundry in public rather than call up Kornheiser.

    I don't understand the airing of dirty laundry like that. No one f'king cares. Just say you're not on the show anymore and be done.

    It's attention-seeking and poor form.

    Eh, I mean, they asked and he answered honestly. Do we want people to be candid, or not?

    I can only assume the people complaining about Chad's answers are not nor have ever been journalists.

    The Bob Costas height nugget in threre is more interesting than the Kornheiser feud

    I have a picture of Costas and I together. I'd buy the 5 5-and-a-half thing.

    I'd say the chances are 50/50 that Norman Chad is the jackass here. Just guessing.

    Based on slight mutual acquaintance, and the hearing of many many stories, I think it's fair to say both Tony and Norman can run to neurosis sometimes.

    I have listened to TK for years and have no doubt that he could be a jerk and might be one here, Just strange that if Chad has this issue with him for 15 years that he never simply called him to ask but is willing to talk to an interviewer about this matter. It’s good dish to read this but poor form by Chad.

    Almost 40 years. Didn't you learn years ago to not assume things?

    I appreciate honest answers. I find impolite, unnecessary responses like he gave to be rude.

    He's not much of a man, either, if he lets something like this go on for 15 years without calling to find out why. Easier for him to play the aggrieved victim.
