Tony does a 5-minute bit on the radio everyday during one of the sports talk shows here in DC and I believe last week he said that he would be back this week. Wilbon is still in Athens so unless they have him on via satellite, I expect one guest host with Tony.

Good. Now Skip guest-hosting the Jungle when Rome is away is 100% fitting and appropriate.

Hopefully it will be Tony and LeBatard until Wilbon gets back.

LeBatard is #3 on my preferred list of guest hosts. Bob Ryan is #1 and Norman Chad is #2.

Its kind of funny that half of Rome's fans hate Skip, despite them having the same schtick.

It's Tony and LeBetard. Wilbon's on the five good minutes segment.

Norm Chad's the best 5 Good Minutes guy, but Ryan and LeBatard are better co-hosts. I thought DA did a good job too back in his day.

Thank God this show is at least somewhat back on track.

It seems like such a simple show, but yesterday proves how lucky they were to find Korn/Wilbon. It was intolerable while both were out.

It wasn't really that lucky. Even before Kornheiser had his ESPN radio show, he had a local radio show here in DC. Wilbon was a frequent call-in guest (since they have worked together for years at the Post) and you found the same back and forth then as you do on PTI. Plus they also have worked together here in DC on local Redskins and sports tv roundtable shows for years (and still do). It didn't a genius to know that they had great chemistry.

Is Wilbon back this week? My withdrawal symptoms are getting pretty bad.

I hear Tony say that LeBetard was only there today and tomorrow, so they'll probably be preempted for golf or baseball for the rest of the week.

It'd be great to have Woody Paige as guest host but somehow I doubt most of you would like that.

Having Tony back the past week and a has made the show somewhat bearable....and LeBatard didn't seem as annoying as usual.

Seeing LeBtard dancing in his seat taunting Tony was one of the funniest things I've seen on that show in awhile. It will still be great to have Wilbon back tomorrow though.

I found LeBatard really annoying yesterday. How is winning a Super Bowl MVP indicative of talent/value? Didn't Larry Brown win one? Desmond Howard? What a stupid argument
