That dude was not amused at all.

[Rake2204]

Haha. This comment is on point.


You have to respect this level of premeditated trolling. Walton ordered the book, brought it to the game, waited for his chance on live tv.

Throw it down, big man.

[HOoopCityJones]

So, I decided to go further down the rabbit hole, and I found this little doozy.


Bill: "I was way in the back with Ray Lewis and it was unbelievable how much fun, oh my gosh, how many people were in there!"


Dave: "We'll just dismiss that, and... get back to the game."



Bill: "If they're gonna suspend Bill Simmons, anything is possible!"


Dave:"Again, we'll just dismiss that, and... get back to the game."


Bill: "Your wife has been calling me."


I never knew Walton was this ****in hilarious.:roll: :roll:

Holy shit. I'm crying right now.


No one can convince me he's not trying to get canned tho.

Is there a YouTube clip of that sequence? I've loved Walton as an announcer forever, mostly for his being ironically hilarious, but it's even better when he gets something stuck in his craw.

ESPN just suspended Baseball writer Keith Law apparently for defending evolution on Twitter.

Just follow the links on Deadspin.


I didn't know ESPN was so **** about religion and all of creation.

[RoseCity07]

This is amazing:roll:

I love it to because you can tell he's mad as f*ck. You should be embarrassed to be a creationist.

[rezznor]

walton is still announcing? why the heck isn't he doing NBA games? instead, we get stuck with the jesus freak..

[Thorpesaurous]

Deadspin was locking up my computer. I'll have to try it again later.

Walton seems to be in semi retirement anyway. He only seems to do Arizona and UCLA games, two areas he calls home anyway.

1. Where is the "BREAKING" intro?
2. If he is a creationist, why does that matter? People have a right to their personal religious beliefs. I don't see how that is relevant to him being an announcer.

It doesn't matter as long as you're not negatively influencing others with your beliefs... that being said the idea of creationism is just moronic. Believing that the Earth is only thousands of years old and not believing in evolution... pretty stupid.

1. It's not breaking news.

2. He has a right to believe anything he wants, and we have a right to point at him and laugh as loud as possible. :oldlol:

Ok.

When are you guys going to release Bargnani, so he can join the Hawks and drain threes alongside Korver, Millsap, Teague, et al.

Thanks.

[russwest0]

Bill Walton is such a troll :roll: :roll: :roll:

[Springsteen]

"Cake."

[chocolatethunder]

Pasch is a Jew who converted to Christianity a while ago. I think that his wife may have gotten him into it. He sounds like a moron.

Good broadcaster though :confusedshrug:

He's fine as a broadcaster and I don't care what his beliefs are, they don't affect his broadcasting. He can believe anything he wants and I can keep believing he's a moron.

[Ariza4three]

Good. Need more in this Earth.

[outbreak]

People can believe what they want but creationism is stupid

[JimmyMcAdocious]

Walton is the best! In that same game a kid flopped and he called out Duke and Coach K about the state of flopping to Jay Bilas (former Duke player).

The guy is hysterical.

[Phantom84]

Yes it is, it basically boils down to hurr durr Go..intelligent being did it.

[Pushxx]

Walton gives zero ****s. He is the man. More people should adopt his attitude towards life.

That was next level trolling.

[outbreak]

I understand the people who are raised with it, it must be tough when your taught one thing all your life, but the people who adopt it through their own choice baffle me.

[RedBlackAttack]

The best part of the exchange may have been Jay Bilas of all people pointing out how awesome Cake (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NSypnaxAlP4)is, which happens to be true, but nonetheless hilarious given the context.

Walton is such a character. He traveled with the Dead back in the day... even went to Europe with them. It's hard to imagine that devoted of a hippie would also be f#cking awesome at basketball.

I <3 Walton

Bill Walton talking about his love for the Dead, leading a drum circle into Arco Arena with Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart just prior to a Kings tipoff, showing off his Asian wife, etc. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=062SYs8l3Sc)

Also, Bill loves Boris Diaw. A lot. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KkrccHEAqg)

I've now spun down a Bill Walton commentating rabbit hole. I'll post the highlights I come across. Here's Bill not-so-subtly destroying Gilbert Arenas on live television.

[Horde of Temujin]

To think that people used to hate on Bill so much when he called NBA games.

He is the best! Stupid haters.

[ArbitraryWater]

Thats mean :( :cry:

Let people have their religious beliefs.

Love Bill though..

You and me both. :roll:

"We love Gilbert. We used to wake up and he'd be on our living-room couch."

You can't write this type of shit. He's dead serious. :biggums:


Love it.

[DeuceWallaces]

So, I decided to go further down the rabbit hole, and I found this little doozy.

You don't really need a rabbit hole to find countless articles and YouTube videos illustrating Walton's brilliance and hi-jinx.

[zoom17]

Bill Walton is a funny guy.

[JohnFreeman]

I love Walton

[HOoopCityJones]

Now I see what Bird meant.

[CavaliersFTW]

omg i saw someone post about this in another thread and had to see it for myself :roll:


:applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: Bill Walton! :bowdown: :applause:

Here's another link for safe keeping!

This is an old post, but Bill Walton has always been hilarious. He's def under the I don't give a **** category of announcers.

He's prolly one of those dudes who nobody thinks is smart cuz he's so goofy. But he's def a troll and funny with all of his hyperbole.

Hahahahaha literally in the next sentence you do!

Love Bill though..

Getting ridiculed is part of being a Jesus freak.

[Eric Cartman]

Dave Pasch might have to go to the doctor to get that metal pipe stuck in his ass checked out.

[hawksdogsbraves]

Judging by that 10+ page post that was in here all week there may be a big creationist contingent on ISH :oldlol:

[Eric Cartman]

[Shawn Kemp Jr. checks into game for UW]

Walton: I wonder if he'd have as hard a time finding an open look as he has locating all his siblings. You know, like Skip Bayless desperately seeking the approval of all the kids who were better at sports than him in high school...just hopeless, am I right, Dave?




Straight up rat poison :roll: :roll: :roll:
