Who's calling the game? I know Bilas will be announcing the Duke-Cuse game.

Why does Doris do mens games? There's plenty of women's games on TV she could do. You don't see me screaming for men to hosting The View.

I would rather watch paint dry than listen to her call a game

She's not my favorite, but she's actually pretty decent. 1000x better than Bob Knight or Bill Walton.

How do I report this post for being blatantly wrong?

But no Bilas, really? Will he be doing Gameday at all then? Duke/Cuse game is at 6 ET. Not a lot of time to get from Moody to an east coast game if Gameday ends at 11.

Seriously? I'm glad some of us still live in the 1950s.

I think you all are confusing Doris Burke with Pam Ward. Pam Ward was truly awful.
Doris Burke is knowledgable and adds something to the broadcast. Unlike Knight, who does nothing but lecture the idiot peons in the audiance and pontificate about how good he was. Or Walton, who is either babbling about Kareem or rambling on and on about that sweat lodge expience in the Arizona desert with that shaman he knows.
If you don't like hearing a woman broadcaster for a men's college basketball game, then that says more about you than her.
