bill walton is the undisputed champion of sports broadcasting garbahj. what's fun though is listening to the other guy (whose name is escaping me) basically call him an idiot right there on the air.

that makes it lively and fun, jeff. walton is a complete lightweight. what's even better is when the announcers call each other idiots on the air. marv alpert is one of the other guys; can't picture him having the audacity to call anyone anything. like you, i can't remember the other fellow's name.

any ideas why the broadcasts constantly promote walton's internet presence on MSNBC? and his windbag ... i mean mailbag? ;-)
