Tony Kornheiser has been suspended for two weeks by ESPN for making fun of Hannah Storm's outfit on his radio show.

Here's what he said:
    "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."

Here's what she was wearing:

My opinion? He should be given a raise, not suspended. Political Correctness run amok...

+1 on this one ETC

He just said what anybody with any sort of fashion sense was thinking...she honestly looks like the wet dream of somebody who is way into their job at Crayola...

Yep, not a good look for Storm at all. I don't like her anyway for her one jab at hockey...fuck her.

Los9090 should be the official spokesperson for SJ on this. I agree and that comment she made towards hockey is the reason why..........I second the "Fuck Her" motion. :P

No one should have to apologize for speaking the truth.

Bullshit move by ESPN.

Perhaps he shouldnt have been suspended, but...it's a pretty dick move making fun of what someone is wearing like that, especially a colleague. And I didnt think the outfit was THAT absurd that it would set off fashion police alarms.

"She looks like she has sausage casing wrapping around her upper body"...things like this should be thought, not said. ESPECIALLY 'on air'.

No argument that it wasn't a nice thing to say. Especially if Hannah is suffering from dementia, and thought it was 1968 all over again...... :shock:

I'd bet $100 what he said violated a clause in his contract.

Just because it's the truth doesn't mean you should say it....on the damn radio.

I support Tony 100%. Censoring talk radio to the point where they can't even make fun of people's outfits is absolutely ridiculous.

You're correct; entertaining comments have no place on sports radio....... ;)
