The Billy Packer Retirement Fund
Billy Packer has been doing the analysis on Final Four broadcasts for a very, very long time. So I wrote an open letter to the president of CBS Sports suggesting we give Mr. Packer an early retirement--starting immediately. Your donation will show you share my concern for my sanity--oops! No, I mean, for Mr. Packer's health and well being.

Please note: Should Mr. Packer not accept this generous offer and instead show up yet again at the Final Four this weekend, all funds collected here will be donated to the East Side Tornado Relief Fund in my hometown of Springfield, Illinois, where two tornadoes touched down on March 12 and caused millions of dollars in property damage.
