    The show is hilarious. One of the most popular on TV. I actually signed up for an audition.

    And blaming them for this is like blaming Disney when some asshat with a medical condition dies on one of their rides.

    I agree with you that it isn't the show's fault the guy had a medical condition.

    I completely disagree with you about it being hilarious. It's horrible. The announcers are poop, and are nowhere near as good as Kenny Blankenship and Vic Romano (who they obviously TRY to emulate).

    You being on the show would be great, however, and I would tune in and put up with the announcers just to see brother Pagan on T.V.!

    I guess it's all a matter of taste. I like John Henson! :lol:

    I never watched the show, but DAMN! John Henson!

    I used to love him on "Talk Soup" back in the day. He was great. I was just asking my friend the other day what the hell happened to him!
