Digger Phelps and Bobby Knight

IronBuckI

Calmer than you are.
Once upon a time I could actually watch the basketball pregame and halftime shows. Ever since Bobby Knight joined the gameday crew it has been unwatchable. Digger used to actually talk about the teams and the game. Now he has been reduced to throwing, badly scripted and horribly executed, jokes/jabs at Bobby Knight. All of this seems to be an effort to show Knight laughing at himself, but it just turns into a cheese dick attempt at humor. Bobby doesn't laugh at himself so stop the charade, and get back to talking about the games. Fuck!!!
 
I really don't think that Knight is the problem. He obviously knows the game, and brings up valid points. It's the poke and tickle portion of Digger's shtick that's pissing me off. Does anybody remember when football's gameday was actually watchable? The spiral downward started with this kind of shit. I've seen the future and it sucks.

From the small part I caught the other evening, I really enjoy what Knight contributes, but the rest is garbage.

Yep. Knight is trying to be serious while everyone else is fucking around...
