    Well, I've taken showers during halftime of two Rockets games this season, the game against Phoenix in which we came back and won and the game against San Antonio in which we came back and almost won...Looks like a halftime shower means good things for the Rockets during the second half...

    Of course, this means that I'll probably have to take a shower almost EVERY day now, but I think I can make that sacrifice...

    So that means you only take showers when Rocket games come on. Did you shower during the offseason, no rocket games...:D

    Thank Goodness A-train.. I was hoping no one would have to say anything, but you've been stinking up the BBS for a while.. Any excuse to get you to shower sounds good in my book!

    :D

    Well every game that I have attended in the last 2 years (DAL, SA (twice), and MIN) we have lost.......

    And to make it worse...... Every game but one that I have seen at Enron Field (6 total) the Astros lost

    So basically all Houston teams are 1-10 when I watch them....... How depressing is that :(

    Maybe you should not attend the games, it's obvious that your the bad luck charm. Maybe you should eat some lucky charms and then go..:D

    So, A-train, does it mean every time you plan to have a shower at halftime the Rockets will fall behind 20 points? If so, please don't plan! ;)

    Drew,
    I have the opposite effect. I've been to 3 Rockets games (the LA game where Cato exploded and the LA game on election night, also against Magic) in person and they won. I've been to 1 Comets game (final game of last title) and they won. I've been to 5 Aeros games (none this year) and they won all. I've been to about 18 Astros games, and they lost 2. I knew I should've gotten playoff tickets! :(

    Why don't you shower before the game starts so we don't fall behind in the first place?

    Drewdog, maybe it's time you started becoming a jazz or Lakers fan? Maybe a big Shaq fan?


    LOL :D

    I'm a soccer fan, and I've been to two of Iran's games in the U.A.E..

    First against Saudi Arabia, whom they had beaten 3-0 a week earlier, they lost. Then, they drew against U.A.E., a team considered to be in their worst form ever at the time.


    but the effect doesn't carry on to Basketball for me, lol.
