I can't think of a more annoying, band wagon jumping, piece of shit announcer than that idiot.

He annoys me more than Vitale.

1. I heard them talking about him on the radio the other night
as in "What the hell makes Billy Packer qualified to announce the final four?"

Apparently his credentials are as follows...

-Played in a final four game
-Was an assistant at Wake Forest probably while Hoover was President
-Has announced NCAA Basketball for the last 60 years or so.

2. I can't stand him.
He picks his favorite and them drools over them the whole game. It is even worse when his favorite team has a star on it, he practically ends up verbally fellating them.

3. Listen to Billy: The ACC "Homer" of all time!
It was great when the St. Joe's fans serenaded him last year with "Bil-ly, Bil-ly":rofl: when the Hawks were crushing Wake!
