Thank God

What a great morning!
Very good news – now, if ESPN would just get rid of Digger, College Basketball be that much better
July 14th, 2008 at 9:40 am
Hallelujuh!!!!!!!!! I hope there is more good news this week.

Bloomin’ Onions.
July 14th, 2008 at 9:46 am
I hope ESPN doesn’t hire the fruit.
July 14th, 2008 at 9:50 am
Don’t think for a second that we’re rid of him. I bet ESPN will hire him stick him with some play by play guy and dUKie V to create the worst broadcast team EVER! Poor play by play guy would never get a word in.

There is a God….

You always knew the game was big if Packer was coming, like him or hate him.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:26 am
Hopefully Vitale and Tipton will join him.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:27 am
#11 Thanks. I decided after my face turned blue I should breathe again.
Maybe Billy Packer will be paired with Rob Bromley for the Big Blue Sports Network broadcasts next year?! Yikes.
July 14th, 2008 at 11:34 am
Maybe the ACC can make him their PR specialist….
July 14th, 2008 at 12:36 pm
HALLELUJAH!!!! THis is only about 10 years overdue. I will never forget the single lamest call I’ve ever heard any broadcaster make in my life:

WHAT’S HE DOING TO WOJO?????
July 14th, 2008 at 12:43 pm
Wow this is fantastic news, all those times I had to watch a CBS broadcast on mute can now end! Next up, get rid of Dick and UK wins the tourney all will be right with college ball!
July 14th, 2008 at 12:57 pm
We will see more of him than ever. No doubt his agent is working up deals with ESPN and all those little Fox sports regional networks.
July 14th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
I saw this on ESPN earlier and I was ecstatic. Billy Packer is so anti-UK and I always, always hated when he broadcasted our games. I’d rather listen to Verne Lunquist than BP. Even if UK would do something good Packer would try to knock it somehow. But isnt he pretty much being let go cuz of something he said on the air awhile back? I have forgotten what it was, just that it was racy or something.
July 14th, 2008 at 2:43 pm
My guess is he goes to ESPN/ABC and is paired with Brent Muffberger to do PAC-10 games that no one really cares about. Here’s to you west coast.
July 14th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
MrBlueHead loves onions i think.
July 14th, 2008 at 5:04 pm
Now he can officially recruit for every ACC team.
July 14th, 2008 at 5:44 pm
Thank god…..fudgepacker sucks
