    I heard he was on TV recently. I think it was either HBO's Taxicab Confessions or Keeping it "Real Sex"....

    yea, no joke. people like this really tick me off. I have a friend of mine who, every time calvin is brought up (for example his 40 point game seven against the spurs was profiled yesterday on ESPNC) makes slurping noises and obscene comments about young children and the like. i mean WTF!!?? the dude was cleared in the court of law, give it a damn rest! this was one of the best shooters in rockets, nay possibly NBA history - and at 5''9' no less. the fact that people refuse to remember him for what he has given to this organization infuriates me to no end. i mean, damn, i came out of lurk mode to post - thats gotta tell you something.

    lets try not to smear the name of one of the most colorful and lovable characters in rockets history

    I could have sworn that during the season, when Calvin was cleared of his charges, the Rockets released a statement saying "We will re-evaluate our broadcasting situation at the conclusion of the season."

    I didn't make that up did I? Anybody?

    Ummm...I wasn't making reference to the charges and or false allegations. The man had 14 kids by 9 women. There is no denying that. I like Calvin too. But Dude was working overtime on Hoochie Patrol.

    So what!!! Who are you to judge? People are so quick to point to the finger or call someone a SPADE. Do you know the women he was with to call them hoochies? Do you even know Calvin? I really doubt it because if you did, you would know that he's a good man with a heart of gold. I'm speaking because I know...... You just know of him and listen to the things you hear from the media. From that, you think you have the right to make judgment calls and what's pretty sad is that you do have the right to believe what you want....it just makes you look smaller than you already are.

    Look, I'm not defending our resident idiot, Ill-Skillz, but come on, 14 kids with 9 different women? I think that kind of information, you could safely assume that several of them were probably ho's. It isnt like no one knows who the dude is and wouldnt know sexual history. You have to have some sort of skank factor when you become numero 6 or 7. You can definitely take it to the bank that 8 definitely has been around a few times. I love Calvin, he is the man and I cant wait for him to be back on Rocket games. Dude still needs to do one or a combination of the following:

    A. Get your junk fixed
    B. Wear a jimmy hat
    C. Stop getting his hump on with anything wearing a skirt

    Save the drama for your mama. The man said the hard feelings from his children toward him came because of their dysfunctional upbringing. His promiscuous nature caused that to happen.

    Calvin was a married man. Women who have babies with a married man are pretty much hoochies....

    So was OJ, but there are plenty of people who still think he was guilty. Not that I care that much one way or another...but if the guy thinks Calvin is the type to either be on TaxiCab Confessions or Real Sex (which really isn't that much of a stretch and isn't that rude for that matter), who cares?

    Look dude, there was no need for you to call me an idiot because you disagree with what I say.

    Believe me, the Rockets probably did not like Calvin's infidelity to get aired publicly. Calvin didn't like it much either or he would have acknowledged those kids publicly when they were around him.

    Hey Calvin could be innocent or a pedophile. But calling you an idiot is justified for all the smack talkin youve been doin all day in the GARM. Seems like every thread you post in, you piss people off.

    Its ok to have different opinions, but you express them in the worst way possible.

    Lol. He was agreeing with you. He called you an idiot for a completely different reason.

    Anyway, I don't know anything new about Calvin. Seriously, when someone hears something, they are bound to post it here. You don't even need to ask. Has anyone ever gotten a satisfactory answer after posting one of these, "Has anyone heard..." threads?

    Same here, I think Calvin is great on TV. But my opinion of him as a person has changed because of the multiple illegitimate kids.

    The man is paid to do his job though and he does it well. He hasn't done anything criminally wrong so he deserves to keep his gig.
