Tony Kornheiser is stepping down after 3 seasons on ESPN's "Monday Night Football".
He will be replaced by Jon Gruden, the former Raiders & Buccaneers' coach.
The travel schedule was cited as the reason for Kornheisers' departure as he hates flying and tries to limit it as much as he can. He will remain, though, on ESPN on "Pardon The Interruption" as co-host.
Kornheiser said he was grateful for the opportunity MNF gave him for the 3 seasons and he felt they got better every year.
Gruden will join Mike Tirico & Ron Jaworski.

Manny Ramirez Suspended
Manny Ramirez of the Dodgers has been suspended from Major League Baseball for 50 games for a positive drug test.
Ramirez says that he went to see his Doctor about a medical issue and was given some medication. He didn't realize that it's a substance that is banned under their drug policy. He apologies to all he has let down by the incident as the responsibility is his.
Manny will lose a good chunk of his salary as players are not paid during any suspensions.
The loss of such a great player will leave a gaping hole in the Dodger's line up, with Juan Pierre being the likely replacement.

Celiac Disease & the Gluten-Free Diet
Celiac Disease is caused by an intolerance to a protein called gluten. Gluten is found in wheat, rye and barley which are used to make bread, cakes etc.
What happens to people with the disease is that the immune system attacks gluten thinking it to be harmful. This in turn damages the lining of the intestines (gut) so that it is unable to absorp food properly. This leads to the symptoms such as diarrhoea, weight loss, fatigue, abdominal bloating and pain. The only effective treatment is for the individual to have a gluten-free diet for life. If left untreated it can lead to several different complications.
Anyone, at any age, can develop celiac disease but it is more common in people between the ages of 40 and 50.
A celiac disease sufferer will need to buy gluten-free products and always check food labels to see if they contain the protein.

Jeanette Lee & Allison Fisher at 9th Annual Predator Intl 10-Ball Championship
The 9th Annual Predator International 10-Ball Championship will take place May 11 - 16th at the Riviera Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.
World class pool players Jeanette 'The Black Widow' Lee and Allison 'Duchess Of Doom' Fisher will lead the women's line up. It will be Jeanette's debut appearance at the Championship.
Jeanette says she can't wait for the championship to start as playing against the men is a great challenge and opportunity and she is ready to take down some victims. She started the women's calendar with a ranking at #3. Lee has a hunger and has been competing with top mens players frequently and she is right at her top game.
It is the 2nd consecutive appearance for Allison Fisher and last year she was the highest finishing woman. Unfortunately she was just outside the money in 25th place. She is one of the most succesful women pros against the men.
It was also announced that Jeannette Lee has been signed by American Poolplayers Association to be the face of their organisation.
