It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I didn't see it, but from the sounds of it, it sounds mildly amusing and harmless. I mean, honestly, can people even make attempts at humor these days without someone getting pissed off...
As for Theisman, he was on point, Tony Kornheiser is ruining (has ruined) MNF. Jaws is a good addition, but Kornheiser is like the Jar Jar Binks of football color men. It's just terrible, how does anyone enjoy that clown.
i quite enjoyed it, typical overreaction, they fired Joe, take responsibility for it.
I never thought Kimmel was funny anyhow.
Ditto here. And Tony Kornheiser has ruined MNF imo.
Kimmel is way out of place on MNF. He's used to a niche crowd that expects insult-based humor. You don't insult football players in front of a national audience, even in jest. Hell, I hardly ever see anyone point out specific player flaws unless they themselves are former players.
A couple years ago I remember some pre-game broadcast (CBS?) where one of the guys made some off-hand dig at Marino about never having won a SB. Marino was visibly pissed and stared him down, saying something like "How many Superbowls did you play in? How many playoff games did you play in?" before they cut to commercial. If that had been Kimmel, I'm sure Marino would have reached across the desk and punched him in the face.
Is it really that hard to find a columnist who not only knows football, but can also be both sharp-witted and sharp-tongued?
Fans aren't allowed to criticize players unless they're former NFL superstars now? What kind of bizarro world is this.

Hey, I'm a columnist! OK, not a sports columnist, but that's just details. I know enough football to yell at the tv screen. And sharp-tongued, hoo-boy, watch out! (As for sharp-witted, eh, that's overrated.) Hire me! Hire me!!!
Because there's no f'in way I'd be worse than Kornheiser.
