I assumed we were being sarcastic about Walton, I imagine he's a lot like listening to your average stoner over the age of 60 anywhere on earth.
I know Dick Vitale is passionate, but his catch phrases make me want to dropkick the tv out a window. I don't mind Bilas, McDonah or those guys who did the commentary for the two tourney games last year.

Basketball color men are worthless.

Good, tough win for the Cats...

I thought I would enjoy dropping the shot clock down to 30 seconds... but doing away with the closely guarded 5 second rule, allowing teams to just stand there with the ball while the shot clock winds down, is making some of these games unbearable.

Upward and onward.

In the post game Cronin mentioned that the Butler game would be on ESPN. Guess he didn't get the message.

Butler game is on CBS Sports Network.

Go Bearcats!!

@#$%$#$ CBSNN. Hate it.

You'd prefer the espn3 crew that did the BGSU game?

ESPN3 is still easier to watch than CBSSN for me. It's the only channel we're ever on that is neither on my DTV or easily streamed on my roku. Guessing the person you're responding to has DTV.

The MAC has a deal where the students produce home games not on television. That would not be the case for Butler and UC. I would much prefer ESPN3.

Not me. I get the CBS Sports Channel. ESPN3 is a lost cause for me.

I've said it before but if you are a die hard UC fan the way to go is Direct TV/Choice Plan. I get all the ESPN's, Fox Sports Ohio and CBS Sports which basically covers 95% of the games the Bearcats play. The Choice Plan is only about $5/mo. more than the tier below it which does not have CBS Sports.

Agree. And you get ESPN 3. I should be able to watch every game this year and I live 100 miles away from Cincy.

CBS Sports is not on the choice plan. All the rest of that stuff is plus FS1 and way more.

FIFY with the BOLD added above.

Just checked and you are right. I have the Xtra plan, which is still pretty reasonably priced.
