March 13, 201511 yr For the love of everything holy, could somebody shut Bill Walton up? I'd rather hear the ramblings of Dickie V than to hear Bill Walton spew his nonsense. Sorry, rant over, please carry on.
March 13, 201511 yr He is one of my all time favorite players to watch when he was at UCLA but I agree, a root canal isn't as painful as Walton calling a game.
March 13, 201511 yr I've personally never understood the dislike for Vitale. He's passionate. Now, Walton and whoever that one guy is who does college football for Fox. I'll turn the volume off.
March 13, 201511 yr Bill is all the way bad or good but never in the middle IMO. He is either giving great insight into the game and what is going on or he is rambling about socks, UCLA, Deadheads or something else completely unrelated to what is happening in the game.
March 13, 201511 yr I lost a lot of respect for Bill Walton during the Kemba Walker/Brandon Knight draft coverage. He had nothing but good things to say about Kemba, who admittedly never read a book throughout his entire college career and made remarks about Brandon Knight that suggested he was only as UK for basketball and didn't go to classes the second semester. I thought that was terrible because if I remember correctly, Knight came into college as an above 4.0 student who already had a number of college credits and was almost a sophomore academically before starting classes in the fall of his freshman year. It just seemed like very unfair criticism and backwards thinking. I can't remember exactly what he said, I'll have to go back and check twitter if it will go back that far. Anyone else remember this?

March 14, 201511 yr :thumb: Or have I. It's just really hard for me to dislike anybody who has that much passion and love for what they do, ya know? Calls out negatives, positives, all of it...just passionate.

I like Dickie V but he is blind to his buddies. His tirade about Boehim is just latest in a long line. UK would be five years getting over Tubbys resignation.
March 14, 201511 yr Love him. Never understand the disdain for any broadcaster, I don't need to be told what Im seeing most of the time, if I don't like it my TV has a button to solve that.

March 14, 201511 yr Ohhhh!!! I take that back....was that during their last regular season game when he was talking about Boehim's biggest fault being that he trusted too many people? Ahh...heck, that's understandable. "We ride together, we die together...bad boys for life." lol
