    Tilman killed the soul of this franchise and has expelled every remnant of the past

    I met Calvin twice in public. The first time at the Bowling alley in Sugar Land where he used to go A LOT back in the early 90's and once at the gas station near TC after a game. Both times he was very kind, talkative and full of energy. He and Bill were the best to listen to and I got all my knowledge on how the game should be played by Calvin's commentary. Without Calvin calling those games I would have never understood the nuance of the game.

    Thanks Calvin for the education and for your hilarious takes on the games and the players. In the words of the man himself. . .

    He and Bill Worrell were the best. So much better than the bore they have for announcers now.
