Nope that is our church

if you do not think that packer is biased towards ACC, then you don't follow college basketball. period.

Thats the whole point Kige. If you don't have proof you can't say something like that in a forum such as this. If a newspaper reporter or TV broadcaster makes a statement that isn't true then there is a retraction or that person is sometimes fired. Look what happened to Dan Rather's career after announcing something that wasn't true. The more you learn about things like this, the better you'll be.

Absolutley Packer was a ACC fanboy. It was probably extremely hard for him to not show his bias, but it showed anyway. He also hated mid-majors.

How can someone be a LSU and UK fan????

[oboylerules08]

And I'm not a Packer fan at all, but I don't like when someone bashes him for something that may not be true. Kige, you need to learn the #1 rule of journalism and broadcasting, always get the facts straight.

You couldn't be more wrong about Packer. He is a GREAT COLLEGE BASKETBALL ANNOUNCER. I'm sorry but I don't see him being biased toward the ACC. He did say "This game is over" when Kansas was drubbing an ACC team in the Final Four. Just because he says on Selection Sunday this conference should have gotten another bid or this conference should have doesn't make you biased. You couldn't be more wrong here Kige, Billy Packer is a legend and should make the hall of fame now!

Thank god he's gone. I agree. He should have been canned sooner and has a major ACC bias.

I didn't like Packer either, but controversy is always fun.

Billy Packer is great at analyzing a game. Unfortunately, he talks about other things too.
