201 EdWilsonFLUSYour corp needs to find an objective announcer, not one who has nothing but negative comments!!
202 JohnDoyleKYUSIt really makes want to turn the volume down when Billy is calling one of the UK games. He is very seldom positive in his opinion of the UK talent level, or ability to win.
203 MichaelRoweKYUSLet Packer announce all ACC games. This is all he can talk about anyway.
204 briannightingaleKYUSBilly Packer is an IDIOT and he adds nothing to the game
205 TimChaneyKYUSget his ass out of there!!!
206 david davis
207 nancyswensonKYUS1'm tired of seeing my husband throw the remote at packer. however after listening to what he says i sure understand..mr.packer isn't a fair minded person.
208 LeeToddKYAs president of the University of Kentucky, I feel Packer's analysis is systematically biased and unfair. I want him out!
209 RAYPATTERSONKYUSBILLY MAIN PROBLEM IS HIS LACK OF BIAS ON CALLING THE GAME. IF NOTHING ELSE DON'T LET HIM CALL UK OR SEC GAMES. GOOD OR BAD HE NEVER HAS ANYTHING GOOD TO SAY ABOUT SOME TEAMS
210 DerrickHallKYUSBill Packer has to be the worst basketball commentader that I have ever had to listen to.
211 emasappKYUS Get someone to quit being so biased and just call the game
212 mik HarlanMSUSBILLY MUST GO. I hate UK as much as he does, but Jeeeeese give it a rest.
213 ErnestBentleyKYUSHe is a W.V. native who happens to always put our Wildcats. Surely you have a more qualified announcer like Bill Rafferty.
214 ChrisReeder
215 AdamYoungILUSMr. Packer is a disgrace to NCAA fans everywhere. He makes no secret about which conference he's a fan of, and that type of commentary is completely irrelevant to other conference games. Perhaps Mr. Packer would be a good ACC only announcer, but he certainly has no business doing other conferences games.
216 BryanLarrisonKYUSThis is a great petition. I often mute the TV as soon as i see Mr. Packer appear on the screen. Please remove him as he is unbearable to listen to.
217 RichardCumminsFLUSAs a lifelong college basketball fanatic, I too am so tired of listening to Billy pAACker and his constant diatribe about anything and everything NOT related to the game at hand. Program manageer, PELASE watch a replay of the Mich St vs Kentucky game, or should I say Big 10 vs SEC and count the ungodly number of references to the ACC.... This game was an historic milestone in college hoops, THE LARGEST cowd to EVER see a basketball game at ANY level, topping a record that stood since the the 1950s.. Not only did CBS cut in after the start of this EVENT that they so proudly advertised for 2 weeks they plagued it with a constant barrage fo babble from a man who yearns for the day of the old set shot and daisy duke shorts. The game, but more importantly the EXCITEMENT that is college hoops is lost on this dinosaur. I mean for gods sake, he doesn't even interpeeret the rules of the game correctly. Let yor sponsors know, we may watch their comercials, but with the sound turned OFF, I have no idea what they are saying! Billy needs to PACK it in.

219 jimmadisonKYUSThis would be an equal Christmas present to capturing Saddam in my eyes. He's an insanely horrible announcer.
220 ChrisRayKYUS
221 MikeWisemanKYUSMr. Packer is a very bias person when announcing a game. His sole interest is to tell everyone how great the ACC is and how bad everyone else is.
222 markfischerIDUShe is small time
223 markfischerIDUShe is small time
224 DannySoloeTNUSA complete bias against the SEC, especially Ky, and we are tired of it.
225 JeffKratzwaldKYUS
226 GavinThompsonKYUS
227 MattFreeman
228 TimCarrollKYUSPLease
229 DavidWilliamsKYUSPacker should retire
230 BelindaCaudillKYUSBilly Packer is indeed a disgrace to the basketball world..He is as anti Kentucky as I have ever seen any other commentator out there..I want him to quit calling UK's games..he hates us with such a passion that it shows in the broadcast..I am sick and tired of hearing him say there are 30 other teams out there right now that could beat Kentucky..How the hell does he know that?? Anyway I would love it if you would get rid of him from commenting UK games!!
231 Tristan ChanKYUSPacker is a poor excuse for a journalist. He does not do proper research, he is slanted toward the ACC and has nothing good to say. Please ban this menace from the airways or at least from SEC coverage.
232 MatthewPaulusKYUS
233 MikeSillsTNUSI totally echo the petition sentiment. I also mute my volume for the game and it stays muted for any advertisers that would support an event with Billy Packer announcing it.
234 RickyHendricksNCUS
235 PaulTurnerKYUSI watch the game for the game itself, not to hear what Packer, or anyone else for that matter, thinks. Announcers should simply call the game - who the foul was on, who scored, who rebounded, etc. - and say nothing else. I don't want to hear someone analyze what I just saw on TV. I don't care that Packer thinks a foul should've been called or that a team needs a timeout. He's not a ref or a coach, so his opinion is useless.
236 IsaacVanHooseKYUSBilly Packer is so bad, I turn OFF the VOLUME when he calls a Kentucky game and listen to GOOD announcers on the radio instead. SACK HIM!
237 Dave Hutchinson IIIOHUSVery negative. Does not report fair. Very prejudice against ALL but ACC. I think his actions last year - being rude to a student usher - because he wasn't recognized - should have told you something!! I turn off CBS broadcast sound and listen to the local radio!!
238 dayronnieVern puts up with him but sometimes i don't think he believes what he's hearing.
239 ZachTownsendThe mute is on!!!
240 jimsmithAZUSgo home billy packer
241 JimmyMadisonKYUS
242 MikeBeardKYUS
243 DustinResch
244 JohnWilhoitKYUS
245 GregHaynes
246 JohannSebastianKYI agree about Billy Packer...how about more Bill Rafterty
247 PaulWeddingKYUS
248 RussCarterNDUSThe guy is negative & full of bitterness....dump his butt to the curb!
249 RobertMcGonnellKYUSHe is the most biased "ACC lovin'" announcer in the United States. He absolutely hates the Kentucky Wildcats. There are no way that thirty teams in America could beat them. It is time for Billy to hit the road...
250 LissaScottFLUS
