    really sad news, but I'm thrilled for CA

    If this is really the end, can we please get a few Bill and Calvin games?

    They don't make em like Bill Worrell anymore. It will be truly bizarre to not hear his voice watching a Rockets game.

    I don't know if I should clap or be sad

    I mean, I liked Bill, but he was more of a homer than a real commentator..

    Now if Clyde got replaced too, that would be awesome..

    Bill Worrell is an absolute legend. He will be missed greatly.

    I liked Bill. He reminded of the commentator in the movie Major League.

    1. No shade to CyberX -- but that was the big news? :/
    2. I personally love Bill, so he will be missed by me. Would rather see Clyde go, tbh.
