Who are the people that enjoy Bill Walton?

Pompous, insufferable. . . since we are being encouraged to let our feelings show here. : )

I think he is an affable and good-natured guy and I would love to meet him, but the season is young and I want to learn more about these teams. This shtick would make more sense in some zero-stakes Senior Bowl exhibition game in May but not on December 1.

I’m sure he’s a fun hang, but damn every game he does it has to be all about him. Dickie V thinks this guy should take it down a notch

What a terrible tech against Zaire. Refs need to get over themselves

:raising_hand_man: I’m dissapointed I wasn’t able to watch hoops today, sounds like Walton was on top of his game. I think he makes watching games I don’t care all that much about way more entertaining. Might not be a fan if he did Michigan games frequently, but I enjoy the change of pace.

Refs trying to hand this game to Carolina.

There’s a reason Teddy has been banned from the Big Ten for two years.

I should have known it was TV Teddy. Yeesh. Some things never change.

If you’re not interested in the game that’s he’s assigned to cover, I’m sure he’s top notch

When I was in the basketball band in the mid 90s right after the fab five … TV Teddy came over to yell at us and threatened to eject the entire band. That guy really likes to be the center of attention.

University of Washington about to lose to UC Riverside. I know this UW roster isn’t exactly awesome but man that’s a school that almost always underperforms relative to the talent they have.

Do we know for sure it was the B1G that actively chose to stop hiring him? Just curious.

I remember a couple years back he seemed to start doing ACC games instead of B1G (I remember it vividly because it was quite obvious LOL). Kind of assumed he just moved.

Washington appears to be not good! lost 57-42 to UC Riverside after losing to Baylor by 30. Cole seems to at least get in at the end of blowouts now

Supposedly, Denver was trying to trade up a spot with us to take him. Kiki was in love with Darko.

Bajema was one of the best shooters of the millennium for Michigan (min. 0.5 attempts per game) so it’s interesting that he isn’t more of an instant impact guy on a bad Washington team.

Now it is worth mentioning that his ORtg is still MVP level 136.7 despite playing 6x as many minutes as he was last year.

What a horribly refereed game. I swear they have money on NC.

According to Valentine, he is going to cry when he sees Izzo because Izzo called him his friend.

Then there is Beilein, who according to the article turned down the opportunity to comment on Valentine’s departure.
