Rob in Arlington Personal Assistant Aug 4, One of the famous features of the show was that when Davis reported the updates, Kornheiser would interrupt the Duke's updates and make comments. At first the Duke was not amused with Kornheiser's interruptions and it took Davis a while to get used to it.

Kornheiser did not like the idea because he would lose the callers from the WTEM broadcasting area. Jim Rome was furious at the move.

He voiced his displeasure on the air, attacked Kornheiser and demanded WTEM give him his third hour back. Kornheiser responded to Rome's attack by his usual sarcastic humor. Two phrases, "Clahhsic!

Also, Kornheiser's nickname "Mr. Kornmissioner" was derived from this segment. Kornheiser also mocks Rome's "tour stops" from time to time on his show, and states that Rome's "takes" are not his own opinions, but rather made-up opinions from staff members that he pays to write his takes.

The jingle introducing the segment still used the version sung by Gary Braun. The band is dubbed "The official house band of the Tony Kornheiser Show". Although Roy Battle and the Altones were dubbed "The official house band of the Tony Kornheiser Show" there was in fact another local rock band that really made the show. He would play tracks from their CDs on a daily basis.

Although "The Tony Kornheiser Show" is a sports-talk show, Kornheiser spends a lot of segments discussing current events, music, entertainment and life surrounding himself, including his dog, Maggie.

His love of the music in s insprired a radio segment called "Old Guy Radio". His other-stuff talk makes his talk show much more interesting when there is no big sports event. In essence, his non-sports talk becomes a talk show version of his "Washington Post" Style Section columns.

A collection of memorable clips of witty, sarcastic, or funny sayings from famous movies, television shows, callers, interviewees, and cast members have been turned into soundbytes that are played regularly on the show, depending on the situation and circumstance. Each person on the show would earn points for the types of shows each head appeared on. More points were given to higher profile spots, such as the 11 p. Proof of his aggitative nature occurred during his second mock fantasy draft.

Management heard about the draft and immediately pulled the activity while Tony's show was in commercial. In late , Kornheiser decided to leave the microphones on when his show went to a commercial break, as a treat to his internet radio listeners.

The result was the infamous yet wildly popular "Internet Show", where online listeners could hear what the people on the show really thought about sports, entertainment, politics, and other stuff. The red89hawk segment also featured an E-mail Jihad, a barrage of angry emails from listeners directed at the person criticizing Kornheiser.

The Internet Show was a forum of real emotions from real people engaging in informal conversations, and would regularly contain explicit topics and foul language. As Kornheiser once said during the Rich Eisen internet show segment, "That's why we always say, this is the X-Rated portion of the show. It was reinstated in February The Internet Show was pulled off the air for good in the summer of , when show producer Denis Horgan Jr. Tony criticized management on the air for Horgan's firing, and was subsequently suspended from ESPN Radio for one week.

This suspension became known as Kornheiser's "Vacation" when the topic of his "disappearance" arose. Ray Necci replaced Horgan as the show's producer in the summer of His authenticity was questioned on March 24 , , but had proof that he was from England, showing his English Badge on Channel 8.

However, the authenticity of his daily appearances on Channel 8 is also in extreme doubt, so the mystery remains. The show was heard online on SportsTalk from 9 a. ET, after which the show was repeated until 1 p. XM Satellite Radio began broadcasting the show on February 28 , from 11 a. Since Clear Channel programs Extreme, Kornheiser was not compensated for this additional venue. The Extravaganza was usually the sports update at 20 minutes past the hour during the second hour of the show, and was introduced by carnival music and a random soundbite from the show's database.

And I found myself, a lot like with the show, I underestimate the emotion of it until I do it.

A guarantee life's gonna be easy? That Annelise is already dead doesn't make it any less cringe-inducing, and the swift, silent efficiency with which Philip and Elizabeth go about the task suggests this is not the first time they've had to do something like this. I also. Go Patriots! The Super Bowl party supposedly took place at the L.

What the guys didn't realize however is that they are being photobombed by sportswriter and TV host Tony Kornheiser , who is standing in the background. Affleck and Damon have been super excited to watch Tom Brady and the rest of the Pats play all week. The other day, Vote Tim Raines this year, people! I like honoring as much excellence as I can, whenever I can, even if it comes at the risk of making everything a bit less special because so many things are being called special.

Even before the Too Much Good TV deluge began in the last couple of years, I was always somebody who tried to squeeze more than 10 shows into his yearly top 10 lists, whether through ties or other bending of the rules.
