Don't rip on Hannah Storm's ho fest in the morning, or you're getting disciplined.

Well that stinks, hopefully, we don't have Lebatard.

The comments in question:
"Hannah Storm in a horrifying, horrifying outfit today. She's got on red go-go boots and a catholic school plaid skirt ... way too short for somebody in her 40s or maybe early 50s by now...She's got on her typically very, very tight shirt. She looks like she has sausage casing wrapping around her upper body ... I know she's very good, and I'm not supposed to be critical of ESPN people, so I won't ... but Hannah Storm ... come on now! Stop! What are you doing? ... She's what I would call a Holden Caulfield fantasy at this point."

I can't stand Cornholer, he was the sequal to Dennis Miller on MNF.

Hannah Storm is marginal looking, at best.

True. But put her in a short plaid skirt and tight top her par value goes way up.

Boo! I love him...and if she really was wearing a short plaid skirt I agree with him. Not okay on someone that old. The other stuff was a little mean, though.

i have noticed in general lately the female anchors have been sporting the skirts. maybe its because Sportscenter has been moving them from out behind the desk more.

If you have been watching Hanna on SC you know that two things have popped into your head over the time she's been at SC 1) What the hell is Hanna wearing today? and 2) Wonder what the other female casters have been saying about her at the water cooler;)? I bet slut is the kindest word used.

To suspend Tony over what he said is just over reaction. I agree with many, that ESPN craps on many other network casters. but, will not tolerate it on their own casters from their own. Look, you dress like a tramp be ready to have someone attach a camera to your peep hole and post the video on the web. You can't have it both ways.

Gee, you think ESPN is trying to bring up the ratings for SC with Storm. I'd rather listen to Jemele Hill then Storm. At least Hill is creditable with her reporting and dresses (professional) appropriately.

Two weeks for that? C'mon--- Dana Jacobson said "F___ Jesus" and only got one week suspension. I think the folks in Bristol are being a bit sensitive here. This sort of ad-lib commentary and sense of humor is what they pay Kornheiser to do. Let me ask you, would they have suspended him if he would have ripped on the attire Wilbon wore on set?

Turning everything into a race thing is credible journalism?

If you don't want an opinion from Kornheiser then when why pay him? This is beyond lame.

The fact that Tony is a male and Storm is a female is the main reason for the longer suspension IMO. If they don't take effective action now, and someone screams "sexual harassment", ESPN will be in a shitstorm they don't want to deal with.
