    he was boring, but seems like tillmen is forcing rox fans to abandon ship. is he moving the team to kemah? if tillmen keeps up this pace, even our own legend @tinman might leave this team. no one can recognize this team anymore from top to bottom, inside out.

    I’m not happy someone lost their job, though not concerned that MB doesn’t have the money to survive. But I’m glad I no longer have to hear his voice.

    Cyberx is about to drop an absolute nuke on us by announcing that #Patrick will become our new sole commentator

    would love to see maxwell out there. HE would be hilarious and honest and outspoken. We need that, the more natural casual tnt half time style not just some typical weatherman type of host.

    I don't like this. Bullard has had some legendary calls. Him & Ackerman have good chemistry. I like Bullard since he's a championship throwback. Who can replace him?

    Yes, the dipshits who complain about "cancel culture" think these types of comments are " too political" and that people should be sanctioned for it.

    He says he's talking to other orgs for front office or assistant coaching.

    Worrell and Bull, end of an era.

    Wow. This is WAY worse news than losing Worrell... I loved Bull. One of the very best local broadcast color commentators I've heard. I'm biased, of course, but he just had such great energy and a near perfect combo of passion for the team he called, the game of basketball, and an understanding of nuance. Not to mention a pretty sharp wit.

    I guess he was too expensive for Tilly...

    He said a lot more than that. He was a hardcore liberal. Don’t think that had anything to do with him losing his job. He was fine with Worrell, but just not a great match with Ackerman. Wish him the best moving forward!!!

    Hoping the Rockets hire Thom Brennaman. He deserves a second chance and is one heck of an announcer!!!

    What kind of stuff? I never heard any extraordinary "harcore" liberal stuff out of bullard, let aloen in the context of calling a game. Im curious of what stuff he said?

    Will miss Bull, met him a few times and was always incredibly nice.

    My vote for his replacement is Mad Max, mainly for his potential commentary when we play in Utah

    why all these ex rox don't come out with dirt on tillmen? would love to hear the stories of how low this owner can get, but probably fear mafia hit jobs.
