[QUOTE=Hog1]Don't leave out Salisbury steak! What an idiot. The other day on ESPN, He and Michael Irvin were having heated debate regarding QB's or team Chemistry, or something. MI says "Sean, I understand your point, but I am speaking as someone who actually has experience at WINNING!" It got real quiet on Salisbury's end!!! Cool[/QUOTE]
That is the first thing ever came out of Irvin's mouth that I can respect. He went up in my book for that. Big time call Irvin.

Actually, Irvin tends to be, if not insightful, definitely balanced. He doesn't seemed to get swayed with what everyone else is saying.

But of course what is normally coming out of Irvin's mouth is made of glass.

Other than his ongoing love affair with the other big-mouth receivers still in the league and "The U", I hate to admit that I actually usually like watching MI on Countdown. He's surprisingly level-headed, fair, and actually pretty darn entertaining.

Yeah, he lost a few points when he wouldn't call T.O. out on his foolishness....but all in all, I kinda like the guy.

Re: Mort gives us props
 

Why doesn everyone need the Redskins to be respected by the media? Sure, I like Mort, Jaws, TJ and Clayton and usually value thier opinions, but really, what does it get us? I mean, who really cares if Pasquarelli or King love to bash the Skins? Doesn't mean a gumdang thing. Salisbury? Please.

I spent many years HATING the bastard for what he did to the Skins on the field! I could not agree with you more. Other than his TO homerism, I enjoy him!

Yep, that's the big-mouth receiver I had in mind. And I'm with you, I detested him when he was a player too.

Irvin does a good job, though he still can't master possesive nouns & proper tenses in the english language. He's also pro player's rights, seems to take the side of TO & other fools too often.
Mort & Clayton are definitely top notch journalists.
Salsburysteak? well, he's ESPN's Cosell - people love to hate him, including some of us it appears

And what's going into his nose is a derivative of the coca plant.

It's not that I love to hate him.....he lacks integrity...he put it out there that he would do this and that if the Redskins went to the playoffs...well they did! And when they did, he went on to say they didn't deserve to be there...all the while failing to acknowledge they had already proved him wrong in the first place.

Re: Mort gives us props
 

Yeah, that put him at rock bottom in my book. Don't make all these bitch promises and then go back on them.

Now there's a guy (Cosell) I really never understood. Cosell was just a little bit before my time, but I watch old clips of him broadcasting and doing interviews, and I just don't understand how anybody could have ever liked him. Talk about the most biased, arrogant, pompous ass I've ever seen. I just don't understand how he made a living doing what he did.

That's all I'm saying...when someone starts make these personal declarations, then they indeed make it personal.
