Excerpt from Jonathan Feigen's "Rockets Notes" section of the Houston Chronicle : Grizzlies under review The Vancouver Grizzlies' treatment of Rockets guard Steve Francis on Monday has drawn the interest of league officials. Video screens showed a scene featuring Francis the Talking Mule. Later, a scene from the movie Stripes that included a Francis character was shown. "You can't use the public address or the video boards to ridicule the referees or an opponent," NBA spokesperson Chris Brienza said. "There is a fine line between something being inappropriate and in good humor. It's something we would have to investigate." The Rockets have not made a complaint, but because there has been publicity about the video scenes the league could investigate it. ------------------ Rocket fuel pumps through these veins...
