Thanks to Bill Walton I'm watching the Orange Bowl
He only gets worse and worse ever year. Nothing can stop Bill Walton from completely ruining a basketball game.
From a complete lack of knowledge of the game and players to seemingly not even being interested in the game in front of him makes the broadcast unwatchable. On top of that he starts ridiculous arguments with his cohost and is downright arrogant and rude. None of his nonsensical babble is the least bit humorous to me as few folks seem to enjoy.
If it's a close game maybe I'll tune in to the last few minutes without audio.

Sorry but I enjoy Walton over the normal monologue OR screaming endlessly styles!
At least a viewer can hit the "mute" button and still watch the game...I have no choice but to look at the ugliest floor in college basketball for every Oregon home game!

If Walton is announcing, the audio is on mute. There are times he will bring forth some good history or insider knowledge, but for me, it isn't worth listening to him ramble.
I agree with DucksReign about the floor...for some reason very hard for me to watch.
