    I love Bill and Calvin.Rocket telecast's just would'nt be the same without one of them.

    Sometimes they can be a little annoying,but can't we all ?

    These guys are an awesome combination, and I think it's hilarious when Calvin runs away to eat cookies. What's wrong with having a little fun on the job once in a while? I think everyone can relate to that. Bill is a proffesional but did anyone notice what a big fan he is of Kenny Thomas?

    COACH SAMPSON,

    Hot Rod Hundley? R U serious? He and the other clown doing the Jazz games are two of the biggest pair of "homers" I've ever heard in broadcasting. Karl Malone could blatantly punch a defender in the face and during the slow mo replay, these guys would question why the opponent was shooting free throws. I hope SLCrocket reads this. He'll tell you the same thing thing. If broadcasting could be turned into NBA talent, Bill & Calvin would be 2nd team All Stars and the Jazz announcers would be CBA bench players.

    Hearn is venerable. That's about all I can say.

    I think Jeff was just trying to point out that basketball people outside of the Rockets seem to enjoy our commentators since a lot of their detractors seem to think that everyone outside of Houston would find them annoying.
