Wow! I can't wait to watch the show tomorrow and see what the cook up to celebrate. They're always whining (in a good-natured fashion) to Barkley how they have no shot as long as he's on the air. They even mentioned it again on today's show.
Good for them! I like Around the Horn, the Sports Writers, SportsCenter, First Take, 1st and 10, and just about every other show on ESPN, but PTI is the only must-watch show in my opinion.
It's hard to believe "Assault in the Ring" won Outstanding Sports Documentary - I actually watched that with Kim and it was drrrrrrrrreadful. Unfortunately, I haven't seen the other four (Ted Williams, The Legend of Jimmy the Greek, The Lost Son of Havana and Without Bias) so I couldn't tell you definitively that any of them are any better...
Eh, count me as someone who does not like PTI. It's just a bunch of guys trying to talk over one another.

Count me in the 'love it' category. My only question: Will Tony rub it in the ESPN bosses faces for the Hannah Storm incident?

Didn't see either Assault or the Ted Williams one. The Jimmy the Greek doc was ok, but turned into a real downer at the end. Tha Bias one was informative, but I find it hard to believe he was a totally innocent vitcim as portrayed. The runaway winner, IMO, is Lost Son. It's an amazing story about Luis Tiant's career and his return visit to Cuba. No other sport movie or documentery in the last couple of years compares to it.
Actually I would say American Idol is a singing competition (although not a good one judging by this year's talent) more than a search for the next star. Look at the front runner by a wide margin, Melinda.
