Law of disorder, or second Law. I can name hundreds, perhaps thousands of degenerative genetic disorders in the gene pool given a couple hours. Can you point to even one documented positive mutation in the known history of man? Aquaman doesn't count. His mother was a mermaid.

I'm going to be completely honest here...after reading your post, I have no clue which side you are on.

I had a fellow UofA fan over tonight to watch and we had to rewind and wat h that halftime segment several times. Walton was in rare form tonight. He hands the cake over to Pasch for winning that award and says "Dave.... it's Dave right?" Hah...Then the Darwin book was too much. Add Bilas and it was the most entertaining commentary (for me) in a long time.

At another point i think they asked Pasch if he ever played. Then later Pasvh asked the guys if they had any special routine a la Rondae's shimmy, to which Walton replied "I was talking to TJ McConnell the other day..." as if to say F off with your dumb questions.

Long Live Bill Walton!

I will watch a boring basketball game if Walton and Pasch are working together. I also liked the old TV show "The Odd Couple" and the not-so-old TV show "The Office". Uncomfortable humor makes me laugh. And Bill Walton makes me laugh.

He was really pissing me off to start the second half.

Dude loves Arizona Basketball though.

Love all the Arizona connections up there. Luke at the game. Lute at the game. Warrior connections. Bunch of alums/players/etc going to Cal game incl Lute. Epic time for Arizona BBall.
Sean Miller, how the hell did he keep his cool? Love the man.

Bill really was concerned about deflated balls tonight.

He likes Jackson Parker Cartwright. And Parker Cartwright Jackson. And in 10 days, Bob Dylan's new album.

He also once attended a Grateful Dead concert with Rasputin.

I do want to credit him for shining a spotlight on the way the refs trashed that game.

Last night for the first time, possibly in the history of the world, Bill Walton interrupted his own nonsensical non-sequitur to comment on a play that happened in the game he was working.

It's one small step for man, one giant leap for Waltonkind.

"Think Snoop Dogg can shoot it like that?"

Best comment by Bill Walton last night was "A program like Oregon just can't compete with an elite program like Arizona who has the facilities, the prestige, the history the tradition and NIKE money."

Priceless.

"down 15, Utah players must realize that if they don't score another point, they can't win"

Let's see: Has an opinion about everything, but won't offer one on the Super Bowl, because that requires a judgment. Is cool with deflated footballs. Strange love affair with Tarkanian, who was the anti-Wooden.

If I was an OSU fan I'd be so pissed at Walton openly cheerleading all things Arizona

Did he actually say Kadeem Allen is a future PAC-12 player of the year?

catgrad97 · Post by **catgrad97** » Fri Jan 30, 2015 10:12 pm

He did say that Wayne Tinkle burns grass in the locker room before every game to "clear the space."

Last season he annoyed the hell out of me but hey it's Bill Walton so ya know, put up with it. Maybe he annoyed me more because last season's team seemed a bit more frustrating than this years, probably something to do with the offense last yr. But I digress. Enjoyed the hell out of him tonight again. And Roberts was great with him. Didn't talk over him just let him keep rolling. Walton is such an lover of all things Arizona Basketball, knows so much about our program, history, and city. Keep up the good work Bill!!!

Thanks for the scouting report Bill!!!!

Was bummed he didn't take the handoff from the PBP guy to talk about Amy van Dykken's return to the mic earlier in the day. Something tells me he knows nothing of her story. He jumped off that free platform to talk about the greatness of the spirit or the will of the human or however he could have rhapsodized about it and, instead, stroked Larry Scott for single-handedly inventing the network.

I love Bill, but that was a miss. Again, I wonder if he had any clue what his partner was talking about...

He's also a lover of Stanford, Oregon, Washington, Cal, UCLA .... kinda like Vitale with ACC. Head cheerleader of the Conference of Champions.

Walton is taking Obama to task about the war on drugs. I suppose if you are going to talk about it, why not during the UW/Oregon game

There will be no basketball commentary during basketball games. And there will be no more obstacles to color commentators obtaining drugs for basketball broadcasts. Not on my watch. Not in our tomorrow.

Remember earlier in the season when Walton kept inexplicably asking if Arizona could beat Texas?

Heh, good times...
