Line 2: [[File:PTI_3003.jpg\|frame]] {{quote\|"[[Title Drop\|Pardon the interruption]], but I'm Mike Wilbon. Tony, we're on ~~[[TV~~All the Tropes]] now! Does that make us [[notable]]?"~~<br />~~ "I'm Tony Kornheiser. Do you think they'll put me under [[Magnificent Bastard]]?" }} The last half-hour of the [[ESPN]] network's afternoon block of "journalists yell about sports" shows (along with ''[[Numbers Never Lie]],'' ''[[Dan LeBatard ~~Is Highly Questionable\|Dan Le Batard~~ Is Highly Questionable]]'', ''[[Sports Nation]],'' and ''[[Around the Horn]]''. The show debuted in October 2001 and is still{{when}} ongoing. Hosted by former ''Washington Post'' sportswriter Tony Kornheiser and ESPN.com sportswriter Michael Wilbon (also formerly of the ''Post''), and featuring ''ATH'' host Tony Reali as "Stat Boy", the show has the duo discuss a variety of daily sports topics, which are generally timed to keep the show moving. The show follows a set format of segments. Line 24: {{tropelist}} * [[Ascended Extra]]: ** Reali got his start on this show before replacing Max Kellerman as host of ''Around the Horn''. Line 46 ⟶ 45: * [[Crossover]]: Several panelists from ''Around the Horn'' have hosted the show. After J.A. Adande won what Reali called "the worst Odds Makers ever," Reali said "Let's go to the lounge!" Adande then said he wanted this win to be added to his ''ATH'' win count. A ''[[Sports Nation]]'' Halloween episode involved ''[[Sports Nation]]''{{'}}s set being dressed up to look like the ''PTI'' set. Kornheiser appeared on the show to demand that the ''[[Sports Nation]]''{{'}}s hosts "stop stealing [their] stuff!" * [[Deadpan Snarker]]: Reali does this a lot during Odds Makers. * [[Double Entendre]]: The show usually opens with Wilbon mentioning an interesting news story (usually non-sports related) and asks Kornheiser a relative question about it tying into his personal life ("Have YOU ever..."), usually resulting in Kornheiser giving [[Dirty Old Man\|an easy double entendre answer]]. Line 83 ⟶ 82: {{quote\|"We're out of time, we'll try to do better the next time, I'm Tony Kornheiser." "And I'm Mike Wilbon. Same time tomorrow, knuckleheads!" "Good night, Canada!"}} }} {{reflist}} [[Category:~~Turn of the Millennium/Live Action TV~~{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:TV Series]]▼ [[Category:Live-Action TV of the 2000s]] [[Category:ESPN Series]] [[Category:American Series]] ~~[[Category:Pardon the Interruption]]~~ ▲[[Category:TV Series]]
