Tony Kornheiser refers to Hannah Storm:

"Hannah Storm in a horrifying, horrifying outfit today. She's got on red go-go boots and a catholic school plaid skirt ... way too short for somebody in her 40s or maybe early 50s by now." [She's 47.] "She's got on her typically very, very tight shirt. She looks like she has sausage casing wrapping around her upper body ... I know she's very good, and I'm not supposed to be critical of ESPN people, so I won't ... but Hannah Storm ... come on now! Stop! What are you doing? ... She's what I would call a Holden Caulfield fantasy at this point."

The outfit in question:

Thoughts:

1. Hannah Storm looks pretty good for a 47 year old.
2. Two weeks???

That's horsecrap, let's a suspend a commentator for commentating. Also that is a pretty horrifying outfit.

I think he's spot on. This isn't Tony's first run in with "The Man."

Well, he is right, the outfit is ridiculous. The statement could be construed as sexual harassment, but that would be entirely up to Hannah Storm and her perception. I'd guess this is more about ESPN trying to appear politically correct.

I personally think it's more creepy when Michael Wilbon drools over every young starlet who's half his age.

Pure awesome.
