    Yeah he has a unique personality that he's not afraid to show on air. There'd be some entertaining moments with him and Calabro.

    Garbage compared to Walton. Would much rather have kept Rice over him.

    SPD should get this gig, as long as he says whatever we text to him.

    "Well, Meyers really fucked the the dog on that possession Kevin."

    Lol have you listened to Walton? Half the plays in a game aren't even commentated on because he's rambling too long about some irrelevant story, all the while irriting the play-by-play announcer because the play-by-play announcer has to talk over him to try to announce the plays!

    Walton would suck. I know he's a Blazer legend but that doesn't mean he should be our commentator.

    I like him a lot. His voice reminds me of CJ. His schtick reminds me of Antonio Harvey, but he can actually pull off the quick wit verbally. He can drop knowledge like a young Mike Rice. I'm all in.

    No white is every color. And people aren't colors we are shades.

    He's kinda funny but I don't wanna listen to him smack his fingers on popcorn or talk about his need to use the bathroom. Well spoken? He never pronounces his ers or ings. Whole lotta meh to me.

    You're not white and I'm not black. We are all shades of brown depending on the amount of melanin in our skin.

    Rice had to go.

    If I heard him say "steps", "flex cut", mention the ethnicity of the player, slur his words, or BUTCHER the shit outta someone's name again I don't know if I'd be able to take it.

    Oh shit it was a race thing. I had to go back and I realized that, because I have BGD on ignore, all I saw was "White IS a color" alone without context. Sorry. Carry on.
