    Bill gets on my nerves being incorrect sometimes and what not, but I love him and it's not the same without him. CA is so annoying and has knee jerk reactions. I don't care for him at all

    I'm good with Ackerman, but given the choice, I do like Bill more for humor and familiarity reasons. I have inside jokes with my family from Bill Worrell lines.

    I like Bill because he makes at least 10 LOL worthy mistakes a game due to his senility.

    Add Clyde in and that is a game full of the Lulzzzzzzzz

    Ackerman tries too hard for witty one liners. That and he screams for the most basic plays. Bill could have Alzheimer's and still be better

    Bill is way more entertaining.

    Craig is kind of bland to be honest.

    Bill has that perfect mix of knowing when to add in stories and funny lines to liven up a broadcast.

    Ackerman's voice is grating, nasally and whiny.

    Can't stand hearing him, but his enthusiasm and preparation are solid.

    Bill Worrell is the voice of the rockets, after gene and jim of course.

    Easy choice
