Forty Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 I posted this here because I thought sports fans might not always go to the TV forum. So please don't move it. What are your favorite sports shows? My personal top is Pardon The Interruption. It comes on ESPN at 4:30pm CST during the week. I love the chemistry between Mike Wilbon and Tony Kornheiser. They both have strong opinions about sports and I usually agree with one of them on a given topic. I love those kinds of shows, but I think PTI is the most entertaining, especially the different skits and funny sh*t they talk about in between the big stories. I watch Around the Horn sometimes but not as much as I used to. Woody Paige gets on my nerves sometimes, and he's on there practically every day. I check out the Best Damn Sports Show on FOX now and then, and only when I see a guest that I want to listen to. Stephen A. Smith's show Quite Frankly is only cool when he has a badass guest. He's boring otherwise. What do you guys watch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuse510 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 PTI is the only show that I will watch regularly. Mostly because, aside from being pretty informative, Wilbon and Kornheiser are actually funny. Around the Horn is OK, but not even close to PTI. Like you said Woody Paige can get pretty annoying, and (even though he's from Chicago) I don't always like Jay Marrioti either. Besides debate shows like that, there's usually some good stuff on ESPN Classic, like Sports Century. Also, shows like "Who's Number 1?" and The Top 5 Reasons You Can't Blame..." are good, at least when their subject for that show is interesting. And Stephen A. Smith usually annoys the hell out of me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyeswideshut Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Around the Horn is one of my favorites on ESPN but nothing beats SportsCenter. Im really into The Contender this time around, rooting for Gary Balletto. I also enjoy College Gameday when the NCAA Season starts up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigs Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Yeah, PTI and Around the Horn are both very good, PTI's wins everytime though, I like the layout a lot better. I liked ATH a lot more when Max Kellerman as hosting it anyway. Other shows: The Sports Reporters (ESPN) The Hot List (ESPNEWS) FSC Report (FSC) Jim Rome is Burning ((ESPN) Even though he's a c*nt) That's pretty much it, although I always listen to Sports with JMV on AM radio..

Nate Baker1 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Hmm interesting the other day i was thinking of this. I do like PTI and around the horn is alright, but being back to back they get annoying because they talk about the same stuff on each show. But they are both pretty informing, jim rome i dont watch too much. When its nba season i love NBA Fastbreak and a few others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA3Rockstar Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 PTI Sportscenter NFL Total Access ESPNNews FSN Pretty much the Basics other than when any Colorado team is playing, mostly the Broncos on CBS 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Posted August 9, 2006 Author Share Posted August 9, 2006 Max is alright, but I don't really dig his personality on screen. The Contender isn't something I get into. There was another show like that, where they had a competition to find out the best boxer...it was called boxing...I don't know if you've ever seen it before, but check it out. lol Jim Rome is much better to listen to on the radio, but he's still a douche sometimes. He tries too hard to be hip, and he always calls Terrell Owens "to", like "two"....it's T. O. bitch. It is an acronym. T for Terrell, O for Owens. His name isn't a f*cking preposition.

D Jones Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 I have always watched Jim Rome ever since I seen that Jim Everet fight. "My name is not jim, it is chris." "Ok Jim." "Say Jim again.." "Ok Jim." Then Jim Chris Everet punches poor Rome. Great TV. Other than that PTI, Cold Pizza (if I am up) and Around the Horn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gta_player5 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Around the Horn PTI The Hot List 4 Quarters NFL Total Access SportsCenter Those are my favorite sports shows.

Sly_Madman Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 PTI FTW. One of my favorite shows. I occasionally watch SportsCenter. I always check NFL Live during the season. Around the Horn is okay, but I don't watch it all the time. Quite Frankly sometimes also, but Stephen A. Smith gets on my nerves if I see him too often, that jackass. The Contender is my favorite show right now, though I don't really count it as a sports show (when I think sports show I think things like SportsCenter). The first reality show I've watched in forever. I guess I'm just a sucker for boxing. I wish I got ESPN Classic. So many good shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 The Australian version of Pardon the Interruption is sh*te. Melikes: - Sports Tonight - Before the Game - The Footy Show (AFL) - Any Given Sunday - Sportsworld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Posted August 12, 2006 Author Share Posted August 12, 2006 There is an Australian PTI? sux2bu. Cold Pizza bores the f*cking piss out of me. The two hosts, Jay or whoever and that swimming chick, both suck. They know little about sports and have very bland personalities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
