Welcome back, Mr. T
By whom I mean Tony Kornheiser, who returns from his two-week suspension. Funny, but his absence was never explained, at least not on the podcasts I listened to in the interim.

Korny resolution?
Well, isn’t that interesting. I went to itunes to see if I could download the podcast for the Feb. 16 installment of The Tony Kornheiser Show in which he made his stormy comments.
