Let me be as clear as I can be: I hate Billy Packer. I always and, unless he somehow, goes completely against type, and makes some major contribution to humanity, I always will.

So it’s with a tremendous sense of glee and relief that I greet the news that he’s left his imperious perch as CBS’s lead college hoops commentator, to be replaced by the harmless, if completely dull, Clark Kellogg.

Make no mistake about it, the airwaves will be a much better place without Packer’s incessant and unabashed cheerleading for the ACC, and ill-informed whining about non-BCS conference teams daring to crash March Madness. The only bad news about Packer leaving CBS is that he’s going to be involved in some sort of college hoops web venture, which I’m guessing will be nothing other than a way for that diminutive fuck to rake in some advertising dough.

Here’s to hoping that venture has the shelf life of Pets.Com and disappears without a trace as soon as possible.
