I don't see how anyone could complain about Fran being on a broadcast after listening to Bill Walton on PAC mid week games.

Sorry i like Walton. Dude says some strange things but he makes me laugh.

he needs someone like ol' Snapper Jones to call him on his most inane comments imo

Am I alone in turning down the sound for almost all games?

Most of the time the announcers annoy me but I'm not staring at the refs waiting for hand signals. Therefore I need the noise for whistles. Not to mention the crowd is fun if you're team is doing well.

No, you're joined by many octogenarian tucks.

Bill Walton is fantastic.
-
love bill walton. last night some guy for arizona fouled out with 5min left and bill was all, "is this the earliest a pac 10/12 player has EVER fouled out?"
haha no, bill.
-
I love Walton. Has the balls to speak his mind, even if it is a bit crazy.

OMG, YES! The people who like Walton were the same people who liked Knight for pretty much the exact same reasons. I guess its different strokes for different folks. I don't know how people can like Walton but dislike Bardo, not sure how that can be reconciled as they both LOVE hearing themselves talk and there are times when the game seems secondary.

I wish that LaPhonso Ellis and Jon Sciambi would call some of our games again

on a similar note, last night he castigated UW for scoring 38 points like it was part of their game plan to win. I wanted to give him a good slapping at that point. I'm sure their game plan was to drop 38 on Zona and see where the cards ended up from there.

This thread :lol:
-
i usually turn the sound way up because i like the crowd and court noise.
-
The only thing I really don't like about Fran is that he always goes out of his way to talk about how great the officiating has been when it's shitty. He loves bringing up guys who used to be NBA refs but were fired for being shitty and talking about how they are great and aren't going to be intimidated.

This is my impression of Franschilla :dunno:

The very best.

Walton is great.

This was my favorite Sciambi/Ellis game for us although we didn't have many. Poor video quality.
Ellis is very EMAW at :10(WOOHOO!) when JO swats it off the backboard. When he breaks down the replay at :30(BOOYAH!) it's great too.

yes, that's very annoying
Walton is great.
thanks for the polling data

Fran also loves to talk about euroball. LOVES IT.
I don't understand the idea that you have to like Bardo if you like Walton. Has Bardo ever made anyone laugh, even one time? The guy is utterly humorless.
-
I appreciate Fran talking about Euroball, actually. As I said, his praise of officiating really gets on my nerves. There are no good officials, only different degrees of bad, and the announcers as a rule should just ignore them for the most part.
-
I appreciate guys like Fran, Scambi, etc. They know their stuff and make the game enjoyable.
Then there are times i enjoy listening to Walton, Vitale, etc. Just depends on my mood. They don't provide much insight but entertain me. Make me feel like this game is the best there is. I'm OK with that.

I can recognize that those guys are entertaining, just like people loved the fact that Knight was a curmudgeon, they just don't entertain me, ever.
-
C'mon MIR, you didn't chuckle even a little when Knight would predict the outcome of a FT while it was in flight?
-
Knight will always have a place in my heart for "uno, dos, and here comes tres".

Counting to 3 in Spanish and then not having the ability to correctly pronounce "Henriquez".

And then Mus couldn't even pronounce "Spradling". Classic. :lol:

I had to watch the television with no sound, so can someone tell me how in the eff Stephen Bardo justified having an all-time KSU team without Mike OR Jake?

Yeah that was hilarious. He said something like "yeah I went old school with this one". It was like Mitch picked the list for him 8 years ago or something.
-
I concur with those saying Bardo is garbage. He is a dumbass who is also not funny.

Bill Walton is a weirdo.

Fran Fraschilla:
"You know, John. I've been watching Melvin Ejim since he was in the 4th grade.. He's always been a hard worker. Just the other day I was talking to his 8th grade math teacher and he said he always knew Melvin was destined for greatness and you can see with this Senior Day crowd here at Hilton Coliseum... that he's going to be remembered as one of the all-time greats at Iowa State."
Francis wears me out with this.

I love when Fran does this with over seas players and makes sure to tell us about the random gyms in Eastern Europe or Africa he first saw the player
