Does ANYONE know Merril Hoge personally on here?

Hoge is one of the more obvious offenders on ESPN, but some of the basketball guys during the day are just as bad. Hoge doesn't get a pass because on top of dressing badly, his commentary is generally meaningless babble. Apparently you *can* get a job at ESPN after suffering severe brain trauma!


Kornheiser does alright sartorially. Wilbon wears good stuff (Isaia and others) but he needs to stop buttoning his top button when he's not wearing a tie. Jesse Palmer I think wears the most interesting stuff, haven't seen him have a big miss yet.

I'm not sure about Tony Dungy. He seems to have some good days and some awful days.

new much?

He did have a lot of concussions when he played.

Hoge retired in the mid-90s. It looks like he forged his sense of style then, and has stuck with it ever since.
