    listening to Tillman on his interviews
    I hear his passion
    I believe he cares about the city
    The people
    And the team

    Of Houston

    Not corporations
    Not overseas dollars
    Not Florida

    Tillman cares about his money. A lot. But we already knew that.

    Tillman has to do undo all the issues Les caused

    Les bought the team low and sold high

    He’s a bond seller

    Go google it

    Tillman is hard worker who built restaurants and hotels
    For the people

    Tillman cares about winning, he is a competitor, no doubt about it.

    But he also cares about money, so we'll see what ends up winning out.

    Is that Tinman or Tillman speaking? Confusing names and all that.

    We will see.

    Could be a shrewd move ... more of a fraud in my book right now until he proves otherwise

    Wouldn’t pay Ariza
    Give away James Ennis for nothing to save penny lux tax

    Jury is in IMO and up to him to show he is a new man by action not mere words.

    Money is number one with Tillman but That's ok. I agree with the OP he does care more and really wants us to win. It's just frustrating what we've been through as Rockets fans the past 20 years. I don't see it changing overnight.

    This is the dumbest thing that I've read all day...
    Let's dissect these statements shall we:

    "Tillman has to do undo all the issues Les causes"...what pray does Tillman have to 'do undo' that 'Les caused'? Care to elaborate?
    "Les bought the team low and sold high"...what the hell is wrong with that? Isn't that the POINT of any business or investment?
    "Les is a bond seller?" WTF does that have to do with anything?
    "Tillman is a hard worker who build restaurants and hotels for the people?" Really - he didn't build them to expand his business and make a profit?

    We saw what won out. Every move was to save money, not win. He won, we lost.
