PTI: Pardon the Interruption
We've had a few threads in the past talking about how kickass this show is, and I think it's high time we discuss it regularly. I rush home from work every day to see it. Tony's obsession with global warming and the polar ice caps is a riot. ESPN has a bona fide winner on their hands. It's frustrating when it gets bumped around from the first round of some minor tennis/gold tournament.

yeah, i would have to agree. nothing beats rushing home from teaching maniacal children all day to see wilbon and kornheiser go at each other. i agree that tony and his 'coming flood' schtick is hilarious. more PTI!!!!

i was 
mao at TK's bit about global warming. You can only go so far north before you're swimming in the arctic! 
i love this show so much, and they both are hilarious because they both know each other's weak spots.
definitely think we should have a discussion about every show because this show is so sweet.
BTW, yesterday's show was show#100...hard to believe it's been on for that long already.
i also find it hilarious when TK makes fun of "the dopey talking mailbox".

you guys should listen to TK's radio show on ESPN radio every morning.
It's like a preview of whats going to be on PTI, except without Wilbon.
(although he does call in every once in a while)

This is a great show but the ratings arent a huge thing I would think it's 5:30 et what else are you gonna put on. Also who do you think is the best replacement when they need one. I personally think DA (david Aldrege).

It's on from 10 a.m. to 1 est. If you miss the show it's still available until his next show comes on the next day.

I was pleasantly surprised by DA's substitution. I hate the NBA, and haven't been enamored of his analysis anyway, which made me believe I wasn't going to like it. I was wrong - he was rather good.
Great show. Actually made the Tivo season pass list!

PTI is excellent,excellent!! It's like Siskel & Ebert were like in the 70's on t.v. I love it because you see a list of what they are going to talk about and how time too. This way if they are talking about golf for 5 min. I know to switch the channel and when to come back.

I hate Norman Chad even for 5 good minutes 2.5 minutes is not even about anything. They guy trys to ahrd to be funny I think he does have some knowledge, but he trys to hard if he was more subtle I would like him more.
