    This has got to be one of the most amusing strings in a long time....NICE PICS...here at the cc.net, we gotta little spy network going, we drop off angry email on doorsteps, I can't wait to see whats next...

    Hope he was kidding, because if he said that straight up to a fan, I would have to go buzz his lakehouse on Conroe and throw Rockets water balloons at him....well, maybe not...but it is a nice house and its an easy target...hey, anyone got any waterproof survailiance equipment...I've got dive gear...

    p.s. Langhi rocks!!!

    One of 2 things will happen to this thread :

    1) Hakeem will no longer be a Rocket and this thread will sadly rank among the top scoops to hit ClutchCity.net, or

    2) It will be archived for all to see for millenia to come as "the rockHEAD thread". The one where everybody congratulated rockHEAD for scooping the Hakeem-won't-stay-in-Houston story when after all was said and done, Hakeem stayed in Houston. Of course it wouldn't be rockHEAD's fault, but his name will always be tied to the ultimate transaction that wasn't. Five years from now people will say "yeah, remember that bagger at Wal-Mart, what was his name? rockFERBRAINS? yeah, I remember that trade he came in here talking about like he knew what he was saying. Wasn't he a peeping tom, too? I remember he had a camera in the underwear department or something. I never fell for his story. What a moron!"

    As the summer draws on, we will know if rockHEAD's name will take its place amongst the legends of BBS such as popeye/oeilpere, heypartner/crispee, Jeff, Rocketeer, rocketsfan34, thacabbage, and Clutch

    or

    if his name will be trampled on beside those such as your average moron poster that isn't quite ready for prime time exposure. The type of poster that is so stupid, he takes an IQ test and gets an "F". Names are being withheld to protect the ignorant.

    Feelin' the pressure rockHEAD? [​IMG]

    This thread has gone national. Rockhead's days at Whole Foods are numbered.

    http://www.realgm.com/src_pump_fakes.php

    Amateur Paparazzi at it's Best:

    I came across a post on the Clutchcity.net message boards that I was ready to dismiss as an overeager fan trying to score virtual social points. rockHEAD, an active poster to the ClutchCity message boards and a member for over 2 years, wrote of a chance encounter with Hakeem Olajuwon in a Houston-area grocery store.

    Somehow able to gather his senses, rockHEAD popped the question most die-hard Rockets fans are in limbo over: Are you returning to the Rockets next season?

    Olajuwon's response? "I'm going to work another year, but it won't be here!"

    Normally I don't consider rumors and chance encounters such as these worthy of the time needed to download them. But rockHEAD has been a member of ClutchCity since May 1999 and he has posted almost 1,400 messages during that time. In the Internet world of Message Boards, newsgroups and mailing lists, only respected individuals carry those credentials.

    Interest piqued, I read some of the replies. There was much disappointment of course. Olajuwon is a Houston icon after all. He single-handedly put Houston on the basketball map. Top that, NASA.

    Still, one cannot help but waive the caution flag in a public forum such as this. Before I added my picture at the top of my Pump Fakes articles, how many of you thought I was a sexy Jamaican in his mid-to-late-30's? OK, bad example.

    But then rockHEAD did the practically unthinkable. He backed up his claim. A stroll through the thread unveiled pictures of Olajuwon shopping in said grocery store. If these aren't real, then rockHEAD is missing his calling as a well-paid graphics designer and editor.

    You've gotta see it to believe it. Check out the thread in question.

    Just in case the pictures weren't proof positive enough. I called a friend that works at Whole Foods, and she acknowledged Hakeem's visit today.

    The times that I have talked to Hakeem, he is pretty forthright and opinionated about things. I don't think he's the type to joke around in a misleading fashion. So I'm pretty much a firm believer in Olajuwon playing elsewhere in light of this story.

    And in regards to Olajuwon's business mentality. Very shrewd. He is always trying to cut a cheaper deal, saving every nickel and dime that he can. Dealing with him on a business level can be pretty difficult from my experiences.
