3501 RobertBrodnickPackers comments are biased. That is his choice as a color guy...however IT IS NOT HIS PLACE TO DISAGREE WITH CALLS!!!

3503 AnonymousAnonymousVAUSPacker's comments regarding the Duke players intentional foul (or lack thereof) were appalling
3504 BillyPackeryou guys are right. I am a bitter old man that knows everything and am sick of watching this terrible basketball. No one understands the game like I do and it is killing me. I can not take it any more. Please fire my ass
3505 Mrs.PackerNCUSPlease end this now. Our entire family can't take the embarrassment any longer.
3506 TobyCatesNCUSPlease, CBS, Do the right thing and let Billy Packer go!!! I feel dumber everytime I watch a game and he is the commentator. He has nothing intelligent to add to the sport of college basketball.

3508 MerilynNewellNCUSThe 2007 season isn't soon enough to get rid of this biased, imperious, over-rated jerk.
3509 AnonymousAnonymousVAUSBilly Packer's comments inappropriate during the game. The Duke player clearly intended to try and injure the UNC player. Billy Packer defending the Duke player was wrong. Sports announcing is supposed to be fair and un-bias. Billy Packer clearly was biased toward Duke should be removed from announcing NCAA games.

3511 GarrettRichNCUSThis is an insult for CBS to have a commentator of this kind, I have never liked Packer but after the hard foul on Tyler Hansbrough in the Duke game and blood pouring from Tylers face and Packer sitting there running his mouth that it wasnt a flagrant foul and just hard play, the guy thinks he is the game from the booth and says stupid stuff by questioning every call and every move of the game. This is a sorry excuse of a broadcaster and it makes me sick that I have to listen to him in the upcoming weeks and a class act like Jim Nantz has to listen to Packers lack of intellegence!!!
3512 CharlesPenlandNCUSBilly Packer's bias against UNC Tar Heels was never more evident than Sunday when he chose to focus his commentary on Gerald Henderson's unfair treatment instead of the injury to Tyler Hansbrough.

3516 EllenWilkersonNCUSPacker's reporting following the UNC/Duke altercation was unprofessional and offensive.

3518 KaitlynSchmidNCUSI have never cared for, nor respected, Packer's work, yet after his comments regarding the Henderson - Hansbrough blow, I will never watch a game with him commentating again, for as long as I live. His complete disregard for respect of the players, coaches, and even the game as a whole makes it impossible to enjoy ANY game. Don't be confused. Do not fool yourselves into thinking his "dramatic" effect draws listeners/viewers in whether they admit it or not. This is severly untrue. I hope you take this petition seriously, along with the comments of all others--if, at the least, out of respect for the game, if not for the faithful fans. Thank you.

3523 AnonymousAnonymousNMUSI am a college basketball fanatic. I watch every game that comes on TV. But I can't stand Packer. He know's nothing about the sport. He's a disgrace and I never pay attention to him. Usually if he is doing the game I will not watch it or either just try to ignore him but it's hard because of his ignorance. FIRE HIM!!!
3524 JamesWilliamsNCUSJournalists are supposed to be objective third parties, yet this guy completely interjects his own biases week in and week out, and loves to single out players to criticize over and over and over again. I get sick every time he's on the tv, and frankly usually try to watch something else when possible before listening to this ass. His comments after Tyler Hansbrough getting his nose broke crossed the line.
3525 GarlandMorrisNCUSI don't think he should be fired but he should be banned from calling ACC games. It is obvious that his personal biases from his playing days at Wake Forest have carried over to his commentary.

3527 ChipEllisNCUSI don't think he is biased for any single team but what irritates me the most is that no matter who is playing or what they do, Billy makes a negative comment about it.
3528 DrewMcMahonMDUSThis guy is WAY past done. He and Nancy need to go.
3529 ThomasRodgersNCUSPlease, please, please remove this senile, bitter, angry man from your college basketball broadcasts. I too mute the TV when Packer announces.

3531 EricFinnTXUSThe old man needs to go!
3532 johnschankeMNUShis backing of dukes henderson this past sunday was appalling!!!!

3534 MarieSaxonNCUSbilly packer is a disgrace to the game of college basketball
3535 AlexFlemingCOUSI refuse to watch another game on CBS with Billy Packer commentating. He is rarely insightful and often critical. His negativity is detrimental to the otherwise wonderful product (NCAA basketball) you offer.

3537 AnonymousAnonymousCAUSHe's too biased towards Duke. They need a neutral guy in there. You don't see Aikman doing that when commenting on Cowboy games

3542 JoeCraftVAUSComes across as a negative bitter old man.He never sees good offense - just a defensive mistake. Not good defense - the offense messed up. I usually turn the sound off when he is on a broadcast.
3543 JustinSteenNCUS
3544 KATEJONESGBIf Billy Packer made comments such as those made during the Duke-Carolina game, relating to soccer, he would be hung drawn and quartered.
3545 PhilRothMDUSBilly Packer's commentary during the Duke-UNC game involving the Tyler Hansbrough-Gerald Henderson incident was totally off base and ridiculous. Watching those gruesome replays while repeating that this foul was not intentional was reprehensible.
3546 DaleMattCAUSI've never seen anyone so anti-underdog announcing any sport. In a sport -- in a tournament -- where the underdogs are the heart of the matter, do we really need a permanent big school homer doing the announcing? (While you're at it, please get rid of his sidekick Jim Nantz; that guy is just a corporate kissass.)
