    I heard on the radio that Tony Kornheiser was suspended for his comments about Hannan Storm. Here is a video I found that has the sound clips.

    Stupid suspension. ESPN knows what they have with Kornhole- his comments were critical of a fellow "analyst". I understand why he is bitter- his career has stalled numerous times and the PYT's (or in Storm's case not so Y) seem to rise to the top.

    This is simply another situation where a man gets penalized for stating the obvious but politically incorrect.

    ESPN does not allow beef within their network. Kornheiser knew that, but still cracked jokes on her weight gain. He was only saying what everyone was thinking. He'll be back on PTI in two weeks. I wouldn't make this into anything, he called her to say sorry he was being rude.

    He really got suspended over the subtle Chris Berman crack... youknow.. how he lost 60 lbs and put it all right back on :p

    I dont see anything inherently wrong with what he had to say. Just his opinion. Hannah Storm probably doesn't even dress herself though.

    I read ESPN is having a lot of issues with this kind of thing off the air.

    Stupid suspension? My question is how he could be stupid enough to say those things about co-workers on the air?

    Who honestly thinks that they can go around bashing people in their workplace and not have any consequences? Stupid criticism that he bothered to make.

    Ya know, this has quickly become the most asinine comment in the world of sports fandom.

    It should be rather clear by now, based on simple observation, that the worlds of sports, politics, and finance are not subject to the rules that normal people have at the workplace.

    What about Bill Clinton? C'mon... let's discuss... It applied to him.
    What about Don Imus?
    What about Richard Seigler?
