No one better exemplifies “douchebaggery” than Lobel, not even Packer. Since this clip, Lobel, at 1 point the highest paid local sports guy, has been canned, too. For 30 years, Lobel regaled gullible watchers w/ his “frat boy” schtick –slightly slurred ,”drunk-style”, smart-alecky speech pattern, etc. And you just know that behind the desk he wasn’t wearing socks w/ his friggin’ deck shoes. Good riddance to bad rubbish!

If it were up to Packer, 13th place in the Big East would be good for a 9 seed while the winner of the MVC goes to the NIT.

the big 12two teams in the elite 8 one of them going on to a national championship putting on a great performance and had 6 teams with 20 wins that got in the tourney the acc was clearly not the best only 4 teams got in with only 1 getting out of the second round not much of a comparison when u have a ntl champion along with an elite eight team plus when ur #1 nc gets trashed like they did against memphis u shouldnt say ur conference is the best

Don’t know what you guys talking bout ACC, sure sucked this year, Big East was better, lets see, Big 12, hmmm They were clearly the best conference this year/
April 20th, 2009 at 11:07 pm
It wasn’t about three years ago. It was actually this season if you are talking about top to bottom strength.
The ACC was first this year in conference RPI, which measures every school and how well they did out of conference. The Big East was fifth. The Big East had more tournament teams but also more pitiful teams.

I’ll agree. The ACC was the best conference about three years ago. I’m just saying from top to bottom,the Big East is the most difficult because you can basically,lose to anyone except DePaul.

The Big East has something like 32 teams, so yes, they have are going to have more teams in the tournament.
Also, when I say the ACC is the best, I don’t necessarily mean this year, but in general they are. More years than not, they are the best conference. Historically, they are the best conference. The Big East was formed about five mintues ago.
The Big East’s supposed best team — Georgetown — was never a serious threat to go deep in the tournamnet. They lost to Davidson.

The ACC only got four teams into the tournament. How in the world were they the best conference?They only had one team make it to the sweet 16. The Big East got about half their conference into the tournament.
April 27th, 2009 at 5:32 am
You’re wrong.
April 30th, 2009 at 5:36 am
The Big East is the best conference. The ACC is just top heavy iwht Duke and UNC. No one else matters anymore.
Also,an announcer is supposed to be OBJECTIVE when calling a game. He shouldn’t show favortism. He is an awful announcer….
April 30th, 2009 at 6:42 pm
The ACC is the best conference. He is not bias. He is just telling the truth.
May 3rd, 2009 at 8:10 am
Less bias? He is perhaps one of the most biased announcers in all of college basketball along with Vitale. He is pro ACC all the time.
May 4th, 2009 at 5:53 pm
Give us Gus, Enberg, Bilas, etc. I won’t watch with the sound on until Packer is not used.
May 6th, 2009 at 1:43 am
I don’t see the problem with Billy Packer not being a sports fan. It means he is less likely to be bias.
May 8th, 2009 at 9:31 am
i don’t really have a problem with him i don’t mind him at all actually.. i think he’s a good commentator.. as for len elmore, that’s another story..
May 8th, 2009 at 11:50 pm
packer should retire. what’s the deal with like 4 buttons open on his shirt?
May 9th, 2009 at 6:00 pm
He really wasn’t like this before. I think he had pressure from the execs to be more assertive.
May 10th, 2009 at 3:03 pm
Gus Johnson FTW.
May 13th, 2009 at 9:45 am
WE WANT GUS.
I don’t know why CBS keep this grumpy old bastard around.
May 14th, 2009 at 5:00 pm
bring on Sean Salisbury to call the final four.
May 17th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
two words, GUS JOHNSON!!!!
