Steve Kornacki was such a hit in his NBC Football Night in America and Sunday Night Football debut he'll likely be back

The New York Post's Andrew Marchand reports there is a “high probability” that MSNBC's Kornacki -- a longtime sports nut -- will be back on the Sunday Night Football pregame show and Sunday Night Football's halftime after he went viral breaking down the NFL playoff probabilities using a big video board while wearing his signature khakis. “I never thought I was going to miss election coverage but that was awesome, I love all those Big Boards over there,” said Sunday Night Football's Cris Collinsworth. "Was this not as good or better than any other segment looking at the NFL playoff picture you have seen in your entire life? As dumb as win probability looks in hindsight when the numbers go sour, this just feels right," says Stephen Douglas. "If Kornacki isn't too busy, this should become a regular segment. If he doesn't know the NFL as well as he knows election results, you can't tell. Most importantly, with Jim Harbaugh struggling in Michigan, Kornacki can finally make khakis cool for football fans again."
