There's a difference between comic relief and comic relief, though. Dennis Miller was out of place, but at least he was funny and charismatic. Tony has been awful, from talking about his fantasy team every game last year (every player in the league, even special teamers, were on his fantasy team at one time or another) to talking over the play during games. His jokes aren't funny and he comes off as a guy who sort of knows what he's talking about but wants to express it in a witty way but has no ability whatsoever to.
It's okay Tony, God doesn't grant everyone wit. But please, please don't force it.
