Listening to him call the Washington/Oregon game right now on ESPN2 is great.

He is hilarious and his nonsensical tangents are classic.

Just called a player from Oregon, Snoop Dogg. Play by play guy actually asks, "What are you talking about?"

Bill's response, "I asked him if I could call him Snoop Dogg, he looks like Snoop Dogg, so thats what I am going to call him.

He's the GOAT at keeping his job while being shitfaced for every game he calls.

Still believe he shouldn't be allowed to call a basketball game without Snapper Jones.

bill: Haven't won a game since their shot blocker was lost

Other guy: it's only been two games

Bill: haven't won a game

I doubt he's drunk.

I suspect he is just not on the same wave length as you are.
A lot of his references are pretty esoteric.
I watched 2 minutes and he used a word I never heard in a sports program before in my life and I wondered how many viewers could follow him.
and that floor is atrocious.

Pretty rude about Snoop Dogg, if he did that. IMO: Snoop is one ugly man.

One thing i realized a long time ago, if you recruit based on what guys look like, you will miss out on some very good basketball players.

I like him I guess

I do grow tiresome of him most of the time midway through a game

He is the absolute worse...he deals only in the greatest ever...
Everybody he talks about is the greatest ever...he is the only commentator that ever frustrated me enough to write an email to a network to bitch...back when he did the NBA playoffs...my favorite line was him calling Robert Horry "the greatest defensive player of this generation"
He is an absolute buffoon...

Bill is an old hippy. I think he's trolling the fans.

GOAT his commentary cracks me up. Everything to him is either the greatest or worst thing to ever happen in the history of basketball.

He makes these terrible Pac 12 games worth watching for his hippy humor.
