My wife loves the highlighter gimmick - I think it's cheesy but in an over the top way. Just like when Raftery does his "Sean Mcdonough and Jay Bilas, _____ opens up 'manaman'". I always give a silent chuckle but at the same time I always cheer against Syracuse to get the tip so they can open up zone. Digger makes a good sidekick for coach Knight - he can talk to Knight in ways that others can't because they're pals. Makes Knight seem less uptight. But yeah 3 in the booth is a crowd sometimes. Phelps as an analyst - I can take him or leave him.

Best for the Cards to just move on from this loss. Wrong place, wrong time and unprepared - it happens. Just ask Duke about Clemson..........
