Around The Horn vs. PTI


I like ESPN and there are two shows that I enjoy on ESPN. PTI is one of them and Around The Horn is another. I started off watching PTI and really liked it, Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon are the stars of the show Tony Reali also appears on the show (briefly on Oddsmakers). I'm not exactly sure why I stopped watching PTI, I guess I just temporarily lost interest and then ran out of time to watch it. I guess one of the reasons I like Around the Horn is someone I used to think was really annoying until I realized it was part of his schtick, I particularly like his chalkboard with random sayings on it for example, "My Karma Ran Over Your Dogma". PTI has some things on it that I enjoy as well, I actually like Oddsmakers probably because it features a scoring system that doesn't make sense (which is why I like Around the Horn). Anyone out there like one these over the other? If so I'd love to hear why.

I'm all about ATH. I worked in restaurants for well over a decade and sports and news is always on the screen. The last few years I watched those two shows a lot, but the sound was always off. I liked ATH more so precisely because of that chalkboard you mentioned. The Karma/Dogma one always made me chuckle...

I can't stand Around the Horn. The very thing that you love about Around the Horn drives me nuts. Who wins? Don't freakin' score it if points are arbitrary!

PTI kicks butt.

I like PTI better because Tony watches American Idol. :)
