Welcome to Buster's Blog

Irregular commentary on whatever's on my mind -- politics, sports, current events, and life in general. After twenty years of writing business and community newsletters, fifteen years of fantasy baseball newsletters, and two years of email "columns", this is, I suppose, the inevitable result: the awful conceit that someone might actually care to read what I have to say. Posts may be added often, rarely, or never again. As always, my mood and motivation are unpredictable.

Tony Kornheiser's Fashion Critique (2010)


ESPN suspends Tony Kornheiser for his comments on Hannah Storm

Tony Kornheiser is reported suspended by ESPN for his comments made on ESPN anchor Hannah Storm. Network spokesman from ESPN announced his suspension.

On his weekday local radio show on ESPN Radio’s Washington, D.C. affiliate, he spoke about ESPN anchor Hannah Storm and said a lot of unexpected things that has landed him in a lot of trouble.

He commented on her outfit saying it was “horrifying” and he also said that her “very, very tight shirt” looked like “sausage casing” and that her “Catholic school plaid skirt” was “way too short for somebody” her age.

Tony Kornheiser later apologized to Hannah Storm and made his apology on-air.

(Buster is a fan of both parties, but in this case, Tony was right on. I happened to be watching ESPN when Hannah walked on the set in the above ensemble. My first reaction was "Hannah!! WTF??" And although Tony probably shoulda kept his mouth shut, it's a safe bet she won't wear this get-up again!)
