Talking Another Monk observation
On the following episode of Monk, Monk is temporarily blinded for a few days. I'm surprised the producers didn't have him referee a game.

Wouldn't he do better as a coach in that situation?

I think he'd have had a better chance as an art or movie critic!

Actually - he'd make a typical announcer. In fact, he'd be better than Billy Packer.

Actually, Billy Packer is the second best announcer on television. Everyone else is tied for first.

I've heard that quote about officials, but I think they were referring to my partner.

"Billy, that player's shirt is untucked. Billy, those sweatbands are mismatched. Billy, those players should be lining up symetrically for free throws."

He'd like the fact that there are 10 players on the floor. Nice even number. Got a zero on the end. . .

Good point. ... and for that reason, if he were reffing, he'd never, ever start with an extra player on the floor!
