For someone as knowledgeable about basketball as Snapper, this sure is a plain vanilla analysis.

Mike Rice is 10x better. The Snapper was a snoozfest.. .
He said the same things over & over each game. Yes, the
Snapper knows what hes talking about BUT DAMN MAN,
dont put the listeners to sleep!! Thats bad, bad, bad, bad!!

Touche' !!
:wink:


But Rice is goofy which I love.
Plus each time I have talked to
him hes been great. My mother
even ran into him twice and he
rememberd her as the Dr. Pepper
lady. First time she ran into him
was in a small store, then at the
bank he rememberd her & they
talked for a little bit.. .Anyway.. .
I LIKE THE WILD ONE, RICE!!

Please bring Wheels to TV and retire Rice...either that or Schonley (did I butcher that?) although I doubt they'd want him to / he'd want to
Thank you for all the memories BRoy. You were a class act and brought hope to an entire region for 5 years. You will be missed.

I like Wild Rice. I also like Snapper, but I don't want to get rid of Rice. He's like your cool crazy drunk uncle, but he calls basketball games :lol:

Amen!!
Rice is fun & despite his crazy act knows what hes talking about.

Im not trying to 'diss' Snapper, its just every game it was the
same old stuff and that gets boring pretty fast. But he wasnt bad.

I have to admit I like Rice also...But I like the Snapper too....I think it boils down to I like everybody that likes the Blazers...

But you don't want to here my drunk Uncle call Blazer games..He still thinks Walton is on our team... :banghead:

I don't think he needs to hold on to the grass...I think he holds it a little to much....
