    well he is a duke grad, so that's to be expected. he's no digger phelps though. talk about someone being full of themselves
    And Bill Packer. If it's not Duke, he hates the team. At least Bilas likes other teams and players.

    Yeah, I guess that is a requirement for being a duke grad. Just feel like everything he says is always right, no matter what. You can't disagree with him, at all. Digger phelps blows and is a tool.

    tough to find good announcers in sports these days. I love the crew doing these night games in the big east tourney. mcdonough and bilas are both awesome. and rafftery isn't bad (though I'd prefer just two guys doing the games). good shit.

    jeags, you betting any of these conf tourney games? I cleaned up today

    EDIT: also have musberger and knight doing big 12 games...and gus johnson on the big ten network. lots of good options

    no i haven't bet. the nova loss really left a bad taste in my mouth and i really haven't watched more than bits and pieces of these games at this point.

    mcdonough and rafftery are my favorites. ONIONS!

    Love Rafftery. During the MU WV game the other night McDonough referred to their earlier meeting which was a 10am new years day game and mentioned that that was a little too early for Raftery, who commented that he'd have made it for the 2nd half, CLASSIC. Also love Gus Johnson as well (how does he always seem to get the down to the wire games in the touney). Bilas, Musberger and Knight are good too, as well as Wayne Laravee on the Big 10 network. Vitale and Phelps are just awful, but no one was as bad as Billy P.

    Another sad fan, this time I don't think it's a Big East team fan at all.

    Uconn blowhards are the most comical. Let's be honest, the Big Least is weak! Huskies celebrating like they won the championship. I guess you can't act like you've been there before cause you haven't! Nobody cares about the Big Least Tournament.

    Bottom line, you are what you are and Uconn is a 9-9 club. Talk is cheap, and Uconn mouths will go quietly again this year.

    When a bunch of white boys are the best team in your conference, your conference is trash.

    UCONN is going down early.

    Book it.

    I enjoy reading these.

    It sucks being a cuse fan
    They play with zero intensity despite having a big talented team.
    Duh, keep the ball away from Kemba and we will win by twenty points.
    Dumbasses.

    The fact that he called the Big East the Big Least made me laugh.
