Personally, I like Pardon the Interuption way more, and I'm not that into Around the Horn, but some people disagree, so which show do you like more?
I think the point system on Around the Horn is a bit irritating, and so is Bill Platscke (sp), so I'll give the edge to PTI, but does anyone else think it's a bit overkill to have both shows back to back? I mean, they even follow 1st and 10 and Jim Rome Is Bruning. Four straight shows discussing the same view on the same topic... a bit old, stale, and hackneyed.
I like PTI better, Tony Kornheiser is so funny. I don't mind Around the Horn, I like Micheal Smith(big football guy), Tim Cowlishaw, and Woody Paige(he can be an idiot, but he's pretty funny)
PTI. Kornheiser and Wilbon are easily the two most entertaining people on ESPN (not that much of an accomplishment though) while almost everyone on Around the Horn is annoying and biased toward whatever city they write for.
when the hell would Michael Holley come back for ATH? that dude had the highest winning % of all time on ATH. BTW, PTI > ATH.
I'd rather watch PTI. But I prefer 1st and 10 myself, actually. I refuse to watch Rome Is Burning. I have zero respect for a man who works in sports and calls Jim Everett Chris Evert even after Jim corrected him. It's probably me, but it feels like ESPN is playing with fire by even paying this guy. Quite Frankly With Stephen A. Smith, now that's a show. He got Iverson to weep. Mad props.

PTI is a much better program....but I think they talk too much baseball and not enough hoops. Their top story can be baseball, even during the offseason. I'm from canada....they never talk about hockey, which is also a downer. I really don't care about college football either.
PTI. Tony brings knowledge and comedy while Michael brings knowledge and seriousness. I was into around the horn, but I don't like stat boy.
