I approve, but honestly I just love the TNT crew. You could probably throw Stephen A. on that show and I'd approve him. You can't buy chemistry like that. It's like someone broadcasted me and my buddies at home talking about the game, only if we had stats, and actual basketball knowledge, and photoshop.

If he doesn't get 95% of the vote, I will be disappointed.

Kenny actually KNOWS basketball. Listen to his keys of the game, he is spot on nearly all the time.

His gig is so good right now, that it would be hard to lure him away, but with his knowledge of the game and repoire with the players, he should be coaching somewhere.

Wow. 93% so far. We really like the NBA on TNT guys, huh?

I think it's hilarious that Charles Barkley is #1, edging out Erin Andrews. They both have asses of some notability, but somehow Barley's won.

(Also, when are we going to get one of these for Michael Tunison? I can't wait to tear his "Fire Closes Popular Chicken Eatery" article a new one!)

When he does color for the Knicks games, even with this team, he never finds anything bad to say about their play. As a huge kiss-ass to the MSG network and franchise, he gets one big Disapprove.
