Bill Walton's "Rape" line

[exstatic]

I expected a huge outcry from N.O.W., but then I remembered that they only watch WNBA games.

I liked the Brent Barry line...

"Brent Barry...one of the greatest rebounders...in his family."

I will have to swallow my pride and say that that is f*cking funny!!

Bill Walton probably deserves this and a lot more criticism for what he says on TV as a color commentator. IMO, he seeems to enjoy saying controversial things.

There was once a Bill Walton, who played at UCLA and later in the NBA, who was (and may still be) the best passing big man in the middle. He studdard terribly and was therefore seldom on camera or being interviewed. He desreves credit for overcoming this disability as a grown adult. I never liked him, but only because of the teams for whom he played. He finished his playing days with the Celtics. His teams were mostly winning teams (UCLA, Lakers, Celtics).

He knows about winning.

I heard "rape" and I thought he was right. Obviously I did not associate that word in a sexual context.

Walton never played for the Lakers. He played for the Blazers, Celtics, and I think the Clippers.

Mr.EasilyAmused and I could not believe he said that!

He said rake. I played it over, it was rake.

Same thing I heard.
