Apparently, Ron Jaworski’s recent broadcast work for ESPN’s Arena Football League games, while a massive conflict of interest, served as an audition of sorts. The former Eagles QB / proponent of ladies eyewear, will join Mike Tirico and Tony Kornheiser in the booth for “Monday Night Football” next September.
Cooling his heels will be Joe Theismann, who established zero rapport with Kornheiser during last season, and was clearly the one member of the trio furthest from his element during the routine celebrity pop-ins (though considering Christian Slater was one of the celebs, that’s not the biggest knock on Joe).
