Pardon The Interruption

Anybody heard of this show? It is on ESPN Monday thru Friday at 4:30. (Central Time)

It is with Michael Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser, and it's basically a run-down of the news and happenings in sports that day, and it is awesome!
They go back and forth on opinions and stuff, and they have a run-down of every topic they're going to talk about.

Put it on Season Pass on the Tivo

Anybody else like this show?

I watch it every day as well. My only problem is that both Tony and Michael rarely know jack about the topics they're speaking on. Their facts are consistently and wildly inaccurate, claiming teams beat the wrong teams by the wrong amount of points. Making gross and inaccurate generalizations to rationalize their point. I like shows that have heated guys with strong opinions, but they need to check their facts before speaking out of their a$$es. Personally, I like the Sports Reporters more, simply because the facts are more accurate, so the opinions have more value, even if some of those guys are insanely annoying.

I had actually intended on sending them a letter telling them how much I enjoy the show and requesting that they make a better attempt to get things right. It's good that they have that annoying Stat Boy to tell them how full of crap they are on some of their stuff.

MAIL BAG!

I totally agree. The only difference is that I can't watch the show because of this.

i watch this show everyday becuz i am a sports fanatic. when tony was making fun of the mailbag voice i was dying laughing! he was like "we gotta get josh back". i was seriously close to falling off the couch.

anyone see the episode where someone wrote in the mail, "what's up when you say 'that's my boy' or 'that's your boy'". that email was pretty funny.

i like both tony and mike but mike pisses me off when he makes fun of steve spurrier.

I like this show quite a bit.

I like how they cover so many topics in such a short period of time. It was especially funny hearing them talk about the "Draft Bowl" last week.
