I know I'm going to take a beating for this, but I believe Bill Walton now is one of the better announcers the NBA/TV has to offer.
 
An actual Walton quote during a game: "John Stockton ... not only a great story in the history of the NBA, but a great story in the history of Western civilization."

You many mock that line, but I believe that's one of Walton's golden nuggets.

That's OK. I'm sure Walton would mock your work if he ever read it.
 
Instead of BW, try, "Bill Walton, NBA's best announcer?" next time.

Then some of us won't have to bother clicking on it to see what the mystery thread is about.
 
Walton is out there (way out there) at times. Times I scratch my head at things he says, but he's enjoyable for the most part.

I think he's an inspirational story for kids who grow up stammering or stuttering. Walton worked pretty damn hard to overcome the affliction.

Thank you so much for the information, JR. I'm obviously a little new around here and need a few pointers. It's not like I have 20,000 posts like you.
 
I thought this was going to be about Bretton Woods.

I once had sex with a ghost at the Mount Washington Hotel there.

I'm pretty sure it was a female ghost.
 
I like Walton because his best quality is that he tells it like it is.

And Stevie, welcome to an Internet forum, a place where you get no respect until you pile up the posts. Being I have a life outside of my computer, that's a place I may never reach.

You're very welcome. I like to help out the rookies whenever I can.

With a little hard work and taking the SportsJournalists.com tutorial "Title Threads: Make it like a Headline", you'll eventually catch on.

And as far as posts are concerned, if you had registered at the same time as me, you'd be up to about 50,000 posts by now.

There's always something to strive for.

JR, I assure you, that I live to be more like you. Thank you so much again for the help.
