Simon Cowell is Johnny Miller or Charles Barkley of 'American Idol'
Idol is one of those shows that many husbands reluctantly watch. We all have this deal with the wives that we can watch football all weekend and basketball and hockey during the week, just as long as we relent and watch some of HER shows as well. We all claim that we watch only because our wives want us too. But most of us secretly enjoy the show.
I don’t see a correlation with sports, but I do think there is a strong correlation to sportscasting, and that’s the part I like. Simon Cowell is the Johnny Miller or Charles Barkley of the show. Clearly the best in the field and the only reason to watch. He’ll take on and take down anybody with his withering opinions and won’t change for anything or anybody. Seriously, Cowell could walk into Rupert Murdoch’s office and demand to renegotiate his contract for 30 million a season and they’d have to give it to him. He IS the show.
