Calling this game. Don’t get why he is such a popular commentator.

Never understood why CBS doesn't put these F4 games on the main mother network CBS and not on TBS. Looks like they would get a larger audience and ratings.

Guessing they get a boatload of money from the rip-off cable companies.

There are so many streaming options now for movies, shows, news, etc.
Live sports is definitely the #1 thing keeping people tethered to their overpriced cable subscriptions.

TBS and CBS are 2 separate unrelated networks

TBS owns the Final Four rights every other year. TBS and CBS made a joint bid for the NCAA tourney rights about 10 years ago in an effort to fend off ESPN owning the rights. I think it ends in a couple years so look for a biddy frenzy on that as well.

Very professional, pleasing announcer voice, and a class act. He is one of the really good guys in broadcasting.

He was incredible at Nagano. Sublime is an understatement.

And who I wish I could be, Final Four to the Masters every year. And paid well to do it.

Sorry you just woke up from a 20 year sleep. CBS does the tournament every year and Nantz if their lead broadcaster.

Every year, Jim leaves the final four and goes straight to Augusta for the Masters.
