    Why all the Tmo bashing? Sure, he's 0-14, but he's coming off what arguably was his best game so far. He didn't miss a single shot or free throw, didn't turn the ball over, and really put forth a statistically balanced game.

    Seriously, if he takes five shots in a single game (has he yet?) I guarantee he will convert at least two. Anyone disagree?

    Since he's not made any shots yet & has only taken 3 shots in any regular season game (4 games), are you saying that he has to throw up 3 bricks everytime, before he can make his first shot? :p I've no doubt that T-Mo will be a good ball player someday.

    this is getting pathetic TMo...no one really says Terrence sucks. But he is being soooo outplayed by Torres and Griffin. Let's add that up then, shall we:

    5 starters

    moochie
    willis
    walt
    griffin
    torres

    that is 10 players. We aren't going to make much of an attempt to get an 11th player much playing time. Save it for next year, already, when he'll be the 12th player (when the real Mo comes back).

    Can you ease back on the TMo threads? You got plenty of posting to do in the Rice.and.Walt.Suck.play.the.rookies threads. I almost wonder whether you'd like to see Kenny Thomas or Griffin get injured just to force Rudy to play your precious TMo.

    crispee, you are taking myself, yourself, and posting in general far too seriously...that, if anything, is pathetic. really it's no big deal.

    what I meant by pathetic was cheering for a guy that is just not going to get much playing time and trying to talk about him all the time. I don't mean personally pathetic, I mean you seem to be missing out on having fun as a fan by being focused on one guy way more than others.

    Are you really even a Rockets fan?

    Oh, screw that. Should I put you down on my "i'm insulted" list so "I will pull the trump card out and say crispee thinks too much of himself."

    pls. note that I post rarely, and post briefly. I do not talk about anything 'all the time.' Plus you never know who might find his way onto the IR. But perhaps it is idle fancy, and if so, so what? Permit me my trifles. Don't you now and then for a moment confuse your fortunes with the fortunes of others? (Tmo) Isn't that the ultimate basis for rooting for or against teams and players?

    When I am not burging (sp) or corphing and I watch from above, I primarily am a fan of basetball as such. Any good game I will enjoy. Secondarily I am a MD fan, and by extension a Rockets fan.

    Don't understand that last paragraph, but I think everyone thinks too much of themselves (myself included). I forgive you that.

    Probably because this site is only the "extension" of your posting, because you do most of your posting at the site of your real team before the Rockets became your extended basketball fun.

    So, you are a big basketball fan. Do you mind then telling us who your favorite team was before Tmo graduated? Or do you just like them all and bounce around fandom rooting for players, not teams.

    Tmo....little posting or not ... can I please ask you again to ease off "starting" new threads about the 12th man on the team. It is just an issue of respect for other people's threads. And this is just my opinion. Nothing that I say should in anyway be construed as the correct way to post...I'm just asking, because there are only 30 posts on the front page at a time. If we all had our pet subject....like barbourdg's constant dribbling about "I'm SICK of Moochie" what would we have?

    Can you imagine barbourdg starting 20 threads over the past month about all the different ways that he is sick of Moochie? Now, haven't you started 20 threads about all the different ways you fantasize about our 12th man?

    don't mind me....I busted a seam after your

    "TMo as Point Forward" thread

    comments?

    Have I started 20 tmo threads? if so, shame on me. seriously.

    the threads are meant to be jokes, but perhaps they're funny only to me.

    boredom, they say, is a form of hysteria.

    anyhow, I generally root for underdogs, but not always. I just like to see a well played game.

    ps--the 'point forward' thread was really about walt. or was meant to be.

    I've only made one Oscar thread...

    Also Tmo, I'm wondering the same HP is, do you have a favorite team?

    If so, which team is/was it before the Rockets drafted Morris?

    Edit: Damn you snuck in that post right before I posted...

    Lakers

    Just kidding, I guess the Wizards, but not really. I really don't root for any particular NBA team. I guess I used to like the Spurs when I was about 10 and the Admiral was a rookie. I actually enjoy games more when I'm NOT rooting for a team or player.

    I know...it was a thread about Walt. I was just jabbing ya. Sorry about the intentional misspelling of Terence's name, too. Hey, he is a solid defender. And has great size. I want him to do well.

    GO TERENCE!!!

    I also really like Torres, and really like Eddie. And some people reallly like Langhi. Aren't Langhi threads about as pathetic as they come....lol.

    So, is it tough having another MD legend stealing SF minutes from your boy? hehe.
