wiretap

Kimmel, who joined Mike Tirico, Tony Kornheiser and Ron Jaworski in the booth during the third quarter of the Giants' 31-10 win over the Falcons, joked about where Theismann was, insinuated that Kornheiser got Theismann fired (their on-air chemistry was often a topic of debate last season), and later remarked, "I'd also like to welcome Joe Theismann, watching from his living room with steam coming from his ears."

I'm waiting for Kornheisers ban even though hes made improvements. Hes stopped talking about his fantasy team. That shiz was annoying as hell last year.

Kimmel is funnier than the idiot Kornheiser trying to announce NFL games.

99% of the time I think Kimmel is an idiot, but I thought he was pretty funny in the booth on Monday. I thought the best part was as a call went against Atlanta and Tirico started to say something about "60,000 angry fans", Kimmel spoke up and said "60,000? More like 6000/" Im sure the NFL was none to happy with that either.
