Best/worst Walton-isms: ”Tres Tinkle’s career has been ruined by injuries.” (99% sure this was before he turned his ankle.) Career ruined by injuries? Self-project much Bill? I thought Walton said that Tinkle's career was "destroyed" by his injuries. Doesn't matter which one; it was hyperbole. That being said, I liked Walton yesterday and have been enjoying him more and more as the years go by. He's a little off-beat, but so are a lot of us. He has good basketball knowledge and enthusiasm for the sport. He has become my favorite basketball announcer. As an aside, it is fun to hear him talk about how much he likes the state of Oregon. Could have been "destroyed" and you're right, either way. Imo, Walton is much easier to listen to when your team is winning.

Walton is a national treasure, he is to basketball what Jerry Hubbard was to talk shows.

Walton is I guess our version of Dickie V. It's gold for a while, but when things are sour you just want him to shut up.
