The Washington Post reported today that Tony Kornheiser was suspended from the air by ESPN for making unflattering comments about his colleague Hannah Storm’s wardrobe. (I consider myself unqualified to make such a sartorial criticism.) Lately I have gotten into the habit of watching him and Michael Wilbon on PTI each evening, so I find the story amusing. More interesting than his comments is his apparent history of lashing out against any negative comments directed at him.
In the hopes of scoring my own personal reprimand from Kornheiser, I present the following diatribe. Tony Kornheiser is an ancient, bald, orange, sweater vest-wearing oaf with a countenance suitable only for the medium of radio. He isn’t worthy of trimming Dan Le Betard’s pubescent goatee and moustache, let alone sharing a studio with real sports journalists.
Your move, Tony.
