What he does in his personal life is completely different than what he does in his professional life, and that's the way that he also should be judged. He might be Mother Teresa away from a microphone, but I'm not commenting on that part of his life. It's his announcing solely that grates on my nerves.

Add you can add Billy Packer to that group also. Again, that's just my opinion.

Fourteen thumbs down for the clowns. Mute 'em! Mute 'em, I say!
