Watching this San Diego State-Utah game on ESPN and I'm not sure if Bill Walton is brilliantly bizarre or bizarrely brilliant. Whatever he is, he's an original.

I love Bill Walton! Walton and Dave Pasch is great together.

Walton tells the best stories. Didn't know Steve Fisher's parents are in LaCrosse, Wisconsin.

I have said this before but he had greatest performance in cbb history in NCAA championship vs Memphis State with 44 points. That performance is always in my head when I hear him and I can do nothing but respect him.

Ufontunately I do not remember that game. Walton's arrogant schtick wears thin with me very quickly. Unless MU is on, I turn off pretty much any game he is doing.

Panther, I do agree he has some great stories, I just find him really arrogant...I think that happens when you play for the Celtics!

Yes - beat Duke and Gene Banks in St. Louis. There was a plethera of "Meet Me in St. Louis" t-shirts on MU's campus before the Miami of Ohio debacle.
