Does anyone else think he's a huge douche for waving the Canadian flag during his sign-off?

He lives in DC as far as I know... I know we're supposed to be tolerant, but you don't need to throw it in our faces.

That said, it could be worse than Canada...

He's been doing this for years and now it bugs you? Of all the things to bitch about that show this is not one.

Didn't he start doing it after he offended Canada once?

“It has to be at least seven or eight years now since I started doing this,” says Kornheiser.

PTI’s longtime associate director Bonnie Berko told Kornheiser about the SportsCenter segment not airing in Canada. So, he grabbed the flag and started waving it at the end of the show. It became a farewell to the viewers who wouldn’t see him again until the next day’s show.

Huh. I always thought it was because the studio is right by the embassy.

His show PTI ends in Canada before it ends in the US (sportscenter).

Canadian viewers don't get to see the end of the show, it just goes to a commercial and doesn't come back. When he found out, he added a Canadian ending to his show.

I liked him before his stint on Monday Night Football. That was an absolute nightmare. He was all time awful.

He'll tell you like he told Mike Golic

I just want to ring Golic's neck and hang him up over the back of a shower rod like a duck.

I've come to realize that people who are actually decent at life and with whom I might consider social interaction do not use the word douche.
