I think Rudy T. more than anyone deserves a standing ovation for what he helped our city achieve in the mid 90's. Francis, I'll give Francis an applause as well for sticking with us from day 1, but won't be the same as cheering for Rudy T. Of course I still will be rooting for us to annihilate the Lakers and Magic , respectively
I would give Rudy a standing ovation even if he came to town coaching the Jazz (nasty taste in my mouth). Francis will get a subdued golf clap.
I'm going to chear for both of those guys. Rudy T meant so much to this city, he'll get a great ovation. Steve should get a good ovation too. Maybe not as good as what Rudy will get, but by no means should we boo Steve. He played his heart out for us and did a great job representing the Rockets org and the city of Houston. Show respect where respect has been earned-both of those men have earned our respect.
Steve will get some applause.. but Rudy is the one deserving the standing ovation.. there are lots of good players that come and go.. but overall Rudy T has meant a lot more to this team than Francis.. Rudy was a Rocket before they even were in Houston... Both will get applause.. just think Rudy's shoudl be greater than Francis
how could someone have voted for the first option.. if they were serious? surely you can't consider rudy a traitor..
I'll cheer them both individually along with Cat and Cato I guess (meh) but I will actually only root for the Magic .... Rudy I'm sorry man but I the hate I have for the Lakers and Kobe farggin Bryant know no bounds ..... I hope that team loses.
It's that same mentality that inspired many of the Worlds most famous leaders... Genghis Khan, Hitler, Stalin, Saddam Hussein, Osama Bin Laden...
I voted to cheer both of them. Also why isn't at least mobley mentioned. How can you boo Rudy, dude was fired while he had cancer. Dude was on the way to the playoffs and then had to take time off for treatment. Peace.
I dont like your post for one thing, "Rudy is a traitor who defected to the enemy!" Give the guy a freakin break he had cancer for crying out loud! I'v never been Pro Rudy T. or Against him ether iv allways been nutral but calling him a traitor is going to far, IMO.
It’s an exaggeration that was meant to be humorous. I also meant to add in some stuff about Cat and all the rest of the people involved in the trade but it slipped my mind.
Comparing the contributions of Francis and Rudy T is silly. Rudy is one of the top 5 sports icons in Houston. Francis... was a good player who will be missed.
