You know it's gonna be a bad Bill day when he starts complaining about the tip at the start of the game. I am a massive homer and agree with him on most everything but it's STILL grating.
I appreciate Bill's work over the years. Last season I noticed from his voice that he got tired, and fed up, with a certain player's knack for boneheaded decisions.
Been watching Rocket games* since the early 80's and Worrell is as good as it gets. One of the best (and most underrated) in the biz. A consummate professional and a nice guy to boot. I hope he has another 20 years in him. until CSN came around, of course.....
Yea, I'm near certain it's Ackerman's job, just waiting on Bill. He is excellent in PbP and his voice is great. That being said, a while. Bill knows it's his till he doesn't want it, and it's free money, with the best seat in the house.....
Love Bill, it doesn't get any better. I hope he goes on for years. The least of the Rocket's problems.
Bill is still a very good play by play guy. Bullard is way too corny. He drops some good knowledge but the dumb sht he says overshadows it. Clyde, well damn. When does his contract come up and not get renewed. Last I heard Calvin speak on this, he said that other people's contract were in the way of him going back to do color. I hope to hell he was talking about Clyde's. He only does home games and I still want less.
Bill can stay as long as he wants but If retires replace him with Matt Thomas He did a good job calling the uH games
Ackerman is the radio guy, he is Peterson's successor not Worrell's. don't see a guy like him gunning for the tv spot but I don't speak for the guy...
My sources say that you will have to pry the microphone out of his cold dead hands! Which is okay with me!
Bill would be great next to a color guy who can bring both personality, wit, AND analysis to the broadcast. Our current color analysts are a lot like our team - only good on one end.
