    Bill can't even pronounce the opposing players name correctly.

    Boris Dio?

    I've watched lots of other crews, and many of them are just as bad as ours. Denver, for instance, makes our guys look like the definition of unbiased.

    I love Bill Worrell. I wish we had Calvin back. I like Bull too. Clyde, not so much.

    I can't believe some of you want to get rid of Bill. It's BLASPHEMOUS!

    I'll take Matt, and leave Bill behind. He adds NOTHING! Calvin maybe. A real sportscaster that isn't a homer would be good besides Matt Bullard.

    Why does this thread keep getting bumped??? I've been watching Bill since I was 12. It would be like abandoning my old man on the street after he goes senile. Some things you just shouldn't do.

    Agreed. Bill Worrell has been great and he is the epitome of a Rockets fan. He's been commentating before most of us have been born. Show the man some respect.

    Show Bill some love. He had been a diehard rocket fan since before most of us were born. I don't think he puts as much effort into his announcing as he did when he was younger, but come on, the guy is a Houston legend.

    It's annoying when one of our players makes a stupid turnover and both Bullard and Worrell are crying for a foul. I'm not blind. Just call it the way it is. Homer announcers are great for dumb casual fans.

    The people wanting him gone are non Houstonians. No way can any Houstonian born and raised as a Rocket fan would spout such nonsense.

    Did you hear Sean Elliott (Spurs color guy) tonight? He's up there among the worst.

    When Harden got hit on the head and then fell to the court, he acknowledged there was a foul but then blamed Harden for flopping so much. He wouldn't stop going on about it. I wanted to throw something at the computer screen.

    Bill is just right with his funny folksy coverage. Sorry, Bill, Bull and Clyde go with the Rockets package. Go root for some other team.

    Bill did a great job tonight. I didn't even see Beverley tip that ball in and Bill called it live!!! Before anyone else!

    He was right though, his point was Hardens reputation as a flopper is costing him some legitimate foul calls.

    The best duo for me was Coach Chancellor and Bill Worrell. Remember them two together doing Rockets game? For you young kids out there, Coach Chancelor was the former head coach of the Houston Comet who led them to the first 4 WNBA Championship in history. Not just any 4 championship but the first 4 championship in WNBA history!!!! Is it significant or important to sports in any way, not really because they are WOMEN,HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA!!!! Hey guys I joking!!!
