    I haven't received my certification yet, so I'm a moron in training, and even I don't feel it was rapey in any way.

    Les is a huge animal rights supporter. Had NOTHING to do with rape.

    And how violence in general is somehow less offensive than rape in 2015 butthurt SJW America is lost on me.

    People that are easily offended should reconsider living. That being said, it is well known in the organization that there is a zero tolerance for animal cruelty or jokes about animal cruelty. no balloons or fur in TC, etc

    Zero Tolerance? Clyde Drexler is still working for the Rockets.

    And yet, Clyde is still here (unfortunately) even after his clubbing baby seals comment on TV.

    The HoustonRockets twitter is now worthless. Essentially every single new tweet that goes up is inundated by Chad supporters tearing down the new tweets. Idk if that's enough of a blowback, but for now, the HoustonRockets twitter account has been neutered.

    I'm going to miss his tweets. He was apparently warned previously on pushing the boundaries so I get why they let him go. Maybe the NBA had a hand in this as well, who knows.

    But even for a middle aged dude like me he made the account worth a follow. Team accounts talking trash back and forth is pretty damn entertaining. Reminds me of the junk my buddies and I would fire off during pickup games.

    As for the rape innuendos, that's a dangerous topic. That comment paired with the emoji never once made me consider that as a possible interpretation. But as mentioned earlier in this thread, people see what people see. Is this tweet the Rorschach test of 2015?
