You can spew racist, sexist, and homophobic comments with immunity. However, don’t you DARE embarass the tarheels while Roy is blowing another tournament game!

Now the only other person that I need to be rid of, is our good friend Dick Vitale!

Hmmm… the article on ESPN.com made it sound like he was leaving to pursue other basketball opportunities. (My money says we see him doing games on ESPN next season.) It did note that there were criticisms of his work this year, but I didn’t think that was the reason for the split.

IMO he is the best there is….i could actually listen to him talk basketball all day. I met him when he played in the McDonalds All-Star game in the 80’s, he told me then if i worked hard and stayed with it, id be playing in that game someday too, needless to say it didnt work out, but his encouragement to a young kid still stays with me today. I think he is a class act.

Billy Packer has covered 34 final fours, I’ll turn 35 in November. I feel like I’ve been born blue again. Maybe now I can spend the second half of my life watchin’ our Cats with the sound on and not openly cursing about the game analysis. I use the term analysis loosely. There is absolutely nothing that I will miss about Billy Packer or his banal, one-sided, and frequently incorrect commentary.
