I have trees in my back yard that are smarter than Rex Chapman. I have no idea what CBS was thinking.

Dude parlayed that into a sweet gig on CNN+ too (whatever the heck that is)

Yeah you do...

Wow glad this is an error. Just saw Gillen on TV breaking down the brackets before tourney started. Always has some funny comments.

Rex Chapman on Twitter > Rex Chapman on TV.

One stooge, who is actually still pretty entertaining (Chuck) is enough. Rex as the early games stooge... no

No offense to Rex, but Chuck isn’t braindead. Rex….

Meh Rex tries too hard to be a character. I don't think he is brain dead either. Chuck is just himself. Kudos to Rex getting himself and his life turned around. Other than that, UK sucks and he can join Avery Johnson in staying away from March Madness

I was thinking the same thing - I just saw Pete on tv, his accent always cracks me up, it’s so distinctive.

Rex Chapman on Twitter > Rex Chapman on TV.

He sucks on Twitter as much as he sucks on TV. Just reposts other peoples crap.

 

[Alsacs]

Candace Parker and Seth Davis need a host who brings energy and a new third analyst.
Rex knows very little about college hoops. It’s not hard to find an analyst who knows the sport.

Rex and Huggy Bear were insufferable last night, good lord. Plus, where do they dredge up these awful play by play guys/gals? The crew that did the AZ game last night was beyond turrable.

I can't believe all you guys actually watch these pre and post and halftime shows.

All depends on whether there are beers in the fridge or I have to run down the street to get a twelve pack or two.

He wasn't wrong, just premature...

Why is This man Laughing? Because He Just Read His Obituary

Joe Retton, the winningest coach in college basketball, is at the wheel of the Fairmont State College van, fast-braking through the dark mountains of West

Remembering Coach Joseph ‘Jo-Jo’ Retton

FAIRMONT – Dave Cooper was just 17 years old when he talked to former Fairmont State men’s basketball coach Joe Retton for the first time.

Of course, you know about 'pre-mature' things...

 

[jncuse]

In Canada I don't have access to these pre/post game, half time analysis shows. We only pick up the on the court feeds (i.e when they are playing basketball) and have our own analysis crew whicis bleh. I do get the CBS so I can get their crew (if I end watching the game on that channel) but don't get TBS or TruTV/

Would I have wanted large doses of the Rex Chapman experience. No, but I feel I have missed out by at least not having small doses of the crap show that is Rex Chapman and Huggins.

Do we think it might be time to change the title of this thread since he's...um...alive?

if i had declared "tits up" for every irishman i saw slumped lifeless over a bar last week ... only to awaken for last call.
