Billy Packer dismissed by CBS
TEAMS: Kansas Jayhawks,  Wisconsin Badgers,  North Carolina Tar Heels,  UNLV Rebels

Does the sun seem to be shining a little brighter today? Do the flowers smell a little sweeter? Is the summer breeze just a little more refreshing? If so, you have CBS to thank. They finally replaced Billy Packer. (Read the rest of the post after the jump.)

    He's about 20 years past his prime. Aging happens. Don't forget Billy Packer once referred to Allen Iverson as a "tough little monkey." He's become the John McCain of broadcasters. Old and grumpy.

    I loved the crazy bastard. I didn't know he was so hated. Oh well as long as they have the luscious sounds of Nantz's voice I'm happy.

    What was funny to me is that everyone on sports radio, TV, print, blogs, everywhere, was overtly delighted at his dismissal. May he die in a shallow grave.
