FS1's Katie Nolan with TKO of Rick Reilly

Reilly sucks.
Simmons sucks.
If you look diligently enough, you can find Charissa Thompson's topless modeling photos.

 

Ding!

 

What separates Reilly from Kornheiser?
Both seem to think they have some comedic talent.
MNF Kornheiser was the worst TV personality of the last 25 years.

 

Putting Tony on MNF was one of those classic bad ideas that show how television works. It's the old "Yes, Minister" theorem of "We must do something. This is something. Therefore, we must do this." Nobody outside ESPN thought it'd be anything but a disaster and so it was.

 

For one thing, Kornheiser spends about two-thirds of his time on his radio and TV shows making fun of himself.

For another, he hasn't written anything for publication in probably 10 years.

 

Kornheiser is a contentious, often hateful little ball of shit who has been in many personal scuffles, trying to get his critics fired, etc.
Reilly doesn't have that wafer-thin epidermal layer.

 

Kornheiser's humorism was ripped straight from Dave Barry.

 

Except he's been in the business slightly longer than Barry. Not sure where the "hateful little ball of shit" came from. I don't know Kornheiser, but I have enjoyed his radio and TV shows for many years. I would compare him to a late-night host, in that his brand of humor is not everyone's cup of tea. And I have no doubt he has an ego, but I don't know many columnists who don't.

 

This is common knowledge.
I don't care if you're a fan.
He's been difficult to work with, he is spiteful and it's well-documented.
Try a Google search.
My point is that I don't believe Reilly has that same disposition.
There was a rumor of a heated argument with some on-air talent at ESPN about getting the credit on a newsbreak.

 

Care to show your work? I am not doubting it, but I guess I'm just not up on my journalism current events. Never heard such a thing.

 

Dude- do your own work before refuting something that's been out there for years.
I'm not here to win a medal.

 

Meh. Not refuting anything. Id imagine if there was something out there that merited him being called a hateful little ball of shit I might have heard of it. Don't really care one way or the other. Just seems personal. Whatever.
