    Meet up with ROCKET RICH NYC and tell him how much you like Van Gundy, that will go over real well with him!

    Hmm, some other posters on the board that I think live in New York include Almu, mc mark, across110thstreet, and VesceySux.

    Maybe one of those guys will post in this thread and try to catch a game with you. Good luck as I would not want to live in NYC.

    I'm in NYC. I'm always down for watching some Rox games, but will be really busy with school the next two months.

    I live in Boston. You guys are welcome to watch Rockets games in my house. Also I need to mention that I have NBALP so I rarely miss any Rockets games, especially this season.

    We had a little group early in the season led by Munco, but everybody bought league pass so it didn't really make any sense to drop a bunch of money in a bar somewhere.

    Maybe we could organize something for a big game.

    As you all know, I live in New York and am the voice of reason on this board. So my advice would be to move out.:D

    I am in NYC quite frequently. I normally go to a few places around 34th and 3rd. Where are you exactly?

    Welcome to NYC tycoonchip!

    I hope the Big Apple treats you well. As far as pity, my brother, from one Rockets fan to another, I hear ya. The best you can do is hope for a ten year reunion of 93-94 Finals, that would be my dream!

    It is tough adjusting to NY, especially if you moved from somewhere like, say , Houston Texas. Keep your head up, and give it at least a year before you decide whether you like it or not.

    As for the Rockets,weve got a Yahoo group like someone said, and we have met one or two times this season for games.

    I'm sure when the playoffs start we will organize something.
    I will get you the link for the Yahoo group.

    And finally, what borough are you living in and where are you studying?

    From the likes of it, sounds like NYU.


    good luck with that.

    from one transplant to another, GO ROCKETS!

    check out Cellar's on Dekalb two blocks south of Washington Ave.


    they have league pass, and if you order two drinks they feed you, FOR FREE!

    its good homecooking, too, they just straight up ask you if youre hungry, then they fill you up with chicken and mashed potatoes and greens.


    that's my spot when I'm in Brooklyn( I stay at DeKalb and Washington Ave. when I'm not in Manhattan )

    peace and I'm out

    we do have a rockets fan club of nyc made up of CC posters. we haven't met in months though. the turnout was a bit weak and then the crappy weather came into play. maybe we can set something up for a big game or at least the playoffs.

    here is the yahoo group:
