Barkley

I can't believe Sir Charles was in the MNF booth for the entire 3rd quarter... Especially after he made his point - philly is tough sports town & d-mac should get a multi year pass for all that he has accomplished - and then endlessly repeated it. Jaws didn't help things by rehashing his unceremonious dumping and his sometimes rough treatment by the fans. Of course, leave it to Barkley to get off two great lines: the first about asking management to get "Shack" and then playing with Charles Shackleford, and the second about a player "being the future" and Barkley pointing out that games are played in the present. I can't decide if that is mundane or profound, though i'm leaning towards the latter.

And what was with the Tony Kornheiser/Michael Wilbon split screen PTI halftime show? They were in the same stadium! They could't get in the same booth?

Who cares about those clowns? its all about JAWS. A fountain of knowledge. My fat friend Fish loves him on NFL Matchup. so much better than Joey T.

Jaws is the best. when he breaks film down, man, i could watch that shit all day. he's the most knowledgeable football analyst on tv. he's gotta grow the stache back though. his upper lip is waaay to big without it.
