    Talking Billy Packer's New Job

    Don't feel too bad for Billy, it looks like he has already found another job.

    His crotchety demeanor will be a great asset in his new position. This is much better than Mr. Cash.

    Billy Packer was undoubtedly the best at one thing: Calling out the litany of mistakes that he perceived other people were making. But he was wrong as often as the next commentator (um, "This game is OVER" anyone?), and his CONSTANT focus on the negative was maddening.

    I won't miss him for a second. He was a miserable commentator and by some accounts is a miserable human being. His departure is long overdue.
    Apparently this was the last straw. As expected, advertisers and CBS execs didn't take kindly to Packer telling the audience they need not watch anymore.
