It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

A very underrated combo was Gary Thorne and Bill Clement in the NHL. They were really solid.



Fatty: Excellent call with Harlan and Gary Danielson.

pretty much anyone who does the majors in golf (sometimes Johnny Miller can get  :chainsaw: when he talks about himself)

Gus Johnson, Kevin Harlan are  :love: in the NCAAs

I like Dave Lapham quite a bit.

I don't know anyone who likes Vitale. Billy Packer's my least fave.

Good call on lapham. He's great. Gary Reasons is pretty damned good as well.

Jim Knox is the best sideline guy. FSN is incredible @ big 12 football coverage.

Really??

Lynn Dawson is terrible, IMO.

Stan Webber is like a robot, hence the name Stan-Bot.

Why you like them??

Ok,

Here are my fav guys:

Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen...

Here is a Liggettism:  "He's crazy. He's always been crazy. And what on EARTH is he doing?" Probably in reference to Chiappuci!

Stan is one of the most annoying human beings on the planet.  Right now I can't think of anyone I hate more as a person than him.

I heard from friends down at the Auburn game Stan was crapfaced before the game... But always have found that hard to believe, but two diff people told me that. 
Also, I yelled "We're gettin &@#%ed up!" at him while he was still on air as I stormed the court after 84-75 game.  He gave me a high five. 
For those reasons I kinda like him. His announcing isn't  :notworthy: at all.

at one point in my life i completely despised billy packer, but now he doesn't even do reg. season sh1t so my hate has somewhat dissipated.  plus, if anything he's only going to make fun of ku, regardless of whether they're playing or not, so i guess i retract my statement.  billy's a bad ass. 


...wow, i just had an argument with myself...    :runaway:
