    Thanks for the memories Gene and Jim. We'll miss you. At least they gave you 22 magical wins in a row to remember.

    They were the best. Their loyalty and passion for the Houston Rockets is unbelievable. I'm going to miss them very much.

    They are playing classic highlights of Gene and Jim on the radio. I am going to cry like a child.

    i don't admit to crying, but this "greatest calls" montage that's playing on 610 right now has brought more than 1 tear to my eye.

    Someone request SR610 to put it on line and make it downloadable. This is an amazing clip, love the NBA "where....happens" music theme.

    I am on the verge of tears...my childhood is officially over...
