The Mike Tirico Show 1-3pm
   ESPN RADIO HOST
   NFL MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL ANALYST
  
   Mike Tirico has handled a wide variety of assignments for
   ESPN, ESPN Radio and ABC Sports since 1991, and this fall
   he will assume one of the most high-profile positions in sports
   television as ESPN’s Monday Night Football play-by-play
   commentator. Tirico will work alongside analysts Tony
   Kornheiser and Joe Theismann and sideline reporters Suzy
   Kolber and Michele Tafoya when sports television’s signature
   series begins its new era on ESPN.

   Tirico has always been one of the industry’s most versatile
   sportscasters, and he is no stranger to big-time sports events.
   In the past year alone, Tirico called the Fedex Orange Bowl
   and the British Open golf championship, in addition to
   co-hosting Super Bowl XL Pre-Game and Post-Game shows
   and NBA Finals coverage for ABC Sports.

   The scope of Tirico’s myriad of on-air responsibilities has
   included play-by-play duties for ESPN NFL games, Thursday
   and Saturday college football games, college basketball and
   NBA games for both networks -- including hosting NBA
   broadcasts on ABC -- and ABC Sports’ golf coverage.

   Tirico joined ESPN as a SportsCenter anchor in July 1991,
   later serving as host of Monday Night Countdown during the
   NFL season from that show’s 1993 launch to 2001. From
   1993-1997, he was also the anchor of ESPN's College
   Football Scoreboard show and on November 1, 1996 he
   hosted the debut of ESPNEWS. Tirico has hosted ESPN's
   SportsCenter coverage of the U.S. Open, the Masters and the
   Daytona 500. He has also anchored coverage of the Super
   Bowl, the NCAA Final Four, and the NFL Draft for both
   television and radio. In 1998, he also appeared on NFL
   Sunday NFL Countdown.

   In recent years, Tirico has largely left the studio and has
   focused on event coverage. In December 1996, he was named
   golf host for ABC Sports. He has worked college basketball
   and Thursday night college football telecasts for ESPN since
   1997. His NBA assignments commenced with the 2002–03
   season, when ESPN and ABC acquired their extensive
   schedules, including the NBA Finals on ABC.

   Tirico was an original ESPN Radio host when the network
   debuted in 1992 and anchored The NFL on ESPN Radio
   (1993-96), a New York Festival Gold World Medal winner in
   1995. He was the first host (1995-96 and 1996-97 seasons)
   of The NBA on ESPN Radio, which includes regular and
   post-season games, All-Star Weekend and the NBA Draft.
   On January 1, 2004, Tirico assumed the role as voice of ESPN
   Radio’s weekday afternoon drivetime “SportsBeat” segments,
   the five-minute daily mainstay of the network since Brent
   Musburger launched ESPN Radio with the inaugural
   “SportsBeat” on January 1, 1992.

   Prior to joining ESPN, Tirico worked in Syracuse, N.Y., from
   1987 to 1991. He was sports director at CBS affiliate WTVH-TV,
   and play-by-play voice for Syracuse University basketball
   football, lacrosse and volleyball for the Super Sports Network of
   Cook CableVision.

   In 1989, Tirico was named top local sportscaster by the
   Syracuse Journal, and received an Associated Press New
   York Broadcasters award for 48 Hours with Syracuse
   University Football, a 30-minute documentary on the team's
   preparation for a game. In 1987, he was the first recipient of
   the Bob Costas Scholarship, given to an exceptional broadcast
   journalism student at Syracuse.
