A nice Walton tribute from Kelly Dwyer:
It makes sense that Bill Walton would have to retire from broadcasting, years before everyone else has to retire from broadcasting … Because early, forced, retirement due to health reasons makes all the sense in the world for Bill Walton. Why? Because it isn’t fair. Why? Because it’s sufficiently cruel. Why? Because this guy has never, ever, been able to catch a break.
And, by extension, the people he’s been able to entertain effortlessly (even though he put in great effort) for years are left out in the cold again…
