    He tapped your mama too? Damn, he tapped mine also! Honestly, I think he may be my father. My Mama told me when I was born, instead of crying I made a noise like "Yaoza, Yaoza, Yaoza!"

    I like Worrell and Bull though, they are a good combination. Bullard has been impressive lately, he definately knows the game. I'm really tired of Clyde's announcing though. Now he truly is terrible.

    I loved Bill and Calvin back in the day. Or however long ago it was. Calvin would always give more incite about the game of bball and that's what I liked about him.

    Bullard's been better lately, especially compared to Clyde. But I think most of us can't stand Clyde because of how he sounds. Like whenever I hear him speak I know one of those "Drexlerisms" is coming.

    I've heard JVG announce some ESPN games and I must say I like how in depth he goes with explaining things the way they are. Like I learn more about basketball when I hear him speak sometimes. Well sometimes anyway. Still waiting for the first time he announces a Rockets game. That'll be something I'll be sure to catch ...

    Hmm. I'm not so sure Bill knows that that much about bball. Like I'd assume he knows about as much as the normal clutchfans member would ... but ya. I guess I just prefer to have broadcasters who can really analyze past what a normal basketball fan would. Love the guy though. It was always entertaining to see him and Calvin work together during those Rockets days and he still does his thing. Bill's awesome.

    Seems like we had one of these in the summer. Well, here we go again. I love Bill Worrell. I think he is an excellent play by play guy, and really adds a great deal of enjoyment to watching the games on TV. I like Ballard as well, excellent color guy.

    I like him even more now

    If you think Worrell is a terrible announcer, I suggest you order NBA League Pass and listen to some of the other team's play-by-play guys

    Bill is definitely one of the best, even if he is a total homer (which he should be)

    Although his makeup makes him look like a high-class zombie, Bill Worrell is the t***.

    Bill is great, a real stand up guy. when the Murph man was going through his whole ordeal with his daughters, Bill stood by his friend, and put his rep on the line by defedning him...and he seems to have snagged a pretty decent amount of tail by the looks of the thread...lol "finished her off with a facey" classic

    Bill and Calvin were the best in the biz they had a special chemistry you don't see very often. I don't think we'll be seeing that again anytime soon but I hope I'm wrong. I liked the team of Bill and Van Chancelor because Van did have some decent analysis of the games. It was hard to get used to Drexler but now I'm used to him just repeating what Bill says.

    Who's your mom? I might know her.

    Also, I remember I saw Bill once at the golf course and his girlfriend was smoking hot. She looked half his age.

    He used to be an alcoholic, his co-workers at 610 radio don't like him and he isn't that big of a Rockets fan.

    He only does his job out of convenience and would rather be doing other things with his time.
