    here's a temporary solution...

    I created a group in yahoo called:
    Houston Rockets fans in NYC

    It can be reached by going to the following address:
    http://groups.yahoo.com/group/houstonrocketsnyc

    Does anyone else find it very strange to form a group in NYC to root for a team that's a time zone away? Has this ever been done before in NY? Seems almost wrong, but how can anyone root for the Knicks.

    i'm a UT grad as well, i was watching the football game vs. kansas state this weekend in a bar full of k-state grads. i drank my beer and grinned. well, maybe i talked a little noise- but it would have been more fun with some amigos. i am down with organizing some kind of get together for a rocket game or two. i am in brooklyn(park slope) if anyone has any ideas.

    not that you asked me, but I also grew up in Pasadena..

    used to live in the area around South and Southmore.(I think it was called Tanglebriar) and for a short time on Harris at Burke.

    I feel touched to Post....

    Im originally from Los Angeles...Grew up a Laker and clipper fan, but in the early 90s Hakeem was my favorite player after Byron Scotts career started to wind down :(.

    Hakeem was my favorite player through the 90's and ive stuck around. Yao is now my favorite player. But im stil a Clipper fan. I turned on the Lakers after this offseason

    I live up in Inwood...and I already ordered League Pass;)

    but would love to hook up with otherrockets fans for some big games

    Raised in H-town. UT grad. Now I live in Dallas. SUCKS because my only cable provider is comcast and it doesn't have NBA TV. Can't remember how I found clutchcity.net...maybe a link from the rockets home page?
