This is an accepted version of this page Antonio Giuseppe Paolo Reali (born July 4, 1978)[1] is an American sports personality and television host of Around the Horn on ESPN.

He joined Pardon the Interruption in October 2001 as "Stat Boy", where his role was to correct and fact-check hosts Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon at the end of every episode.

After Reali became the host of Around the Horn and his popularity continued to rise, Kornheiser and Wilbon eventually started introducing him by his actual name instead of simply calling him "Stat Boy."

In addition to conducting his usual fact-checks, Reali also judged Kornheiser and Wilbon when they played the games "Oddsmakers" and "Report Card" on the show and introduced the topics for segments such as "Over/Under" and "What's the Word."

On September 5, 2014, Reali did his last show of Pardon the Interruption as part of moving to New York City to be a social media correspondent on Good Morning America,[6] a job he held for only a couple of months.

[7][8] During a "face time" donated to him by the winner of an episode of the show in March 2019, Reali commented on the decision of Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos to eliminate federal funding for the Special Olympics, arguing for the social and moral importance of maintaining support for the program.

[11][12] Reali appeared as a special guest star on Kick Buttowski: Suburban Daredevil and provided the voice for "The Dark One" in Rocked.
