    I dont catch too many home broadcast streams but when I do, I cringe at the sound of Craig Ackermans voice and "enthusiasm". He needs to get away from being a radio broadcaster and tone it down with the excitement sometimes. Its just too much, especially when youre doing tv now and everybody can see whats going on instead of imagining it on the radio. Anybody else feel this way?

    I think Craig Ackerman is awesome. He brings a lot of passion and excitement to the broadcasts. I feel like he is a fan like me, that was lucky enough to get a great job. I imagine I'd have very similar reactions to in game action as he does if I were in his shoes and I like that. He gets pumped and pissed at the same things I do.

    He knows his stuff, but his voice is annoying, IMO.

    Ackerman's voice is definitely very hard on the ears. I miss Bill.

    Craig is very knowledgeable and certainly enthusiastic about the Rockets, but his voice is a bit lacking in the dulcet tones that grace Bill's broadcasts. I like Ackerman. I prefer Bill Worrell.
