    Thanks Clutch

    don't get the station here in Austin - so nice to have it posted. -


    ... Yao mentioned in post game interview he just learned the word "underdog" 2 days ago - - made me think of Shelby Metcalf quote - - said the underdog was the one who got to have half the fun and all the puppies...

    LOL. I heard the segment where his post was read on air. Pretty funny.

    But I have to agree. What's wrong with a little pep rally? Isn't it nice to see Houston fans excited? The same city that shows up late to games, if it even shows up at all? And if they do, for the most part sit on their hands or hang out in the lounge?

    I loved the idea of the rally. It wasn't to celebrate the first round win etc....it was to cheer on our team, who was heading to enemy territory. Lakers, the favorite not only to destroy the Rockets.....but to win the championship.

    It's been 12 years since we had a reason to talk about basketball in May. Gotta love the Rockets right now.

    As cheesey as it may be. It's an awesome concept, Ron is pumping up the fans....hell even I am becoming a fan...(of his).

    I respect your show a lot, and listen to 1560 all the time. But ripping on the rally...come on. It was another chance for fans to get up and close with the players and show them the support they deserve.

    It's about time, Houston is excited. Can't wait till our home games. The Toyota Box is going to be ROCKING.

    Oh yeah, and as a side note. It is moronic to say you guys don't do anything for the team. I love your shows No Layups. And you guys do a great job of talking about the Rockets.

    That's because they are unappreciative :D

    didn't the Rockets of old have impromptu pep rally's all the time? The impromptu part probably makes it okay - but I remember "airport coverage" basically everytime the flew home or out.

    I'd agree that the Rockets organizing this one to the extent they did made it a little high-schoolish.

    OTOH, the posters in this thread make very very valid points about fan appreciation, ticket prices, etc. Correlating winning with pep rally's seems pretty far fetched.

    but thanks for all the rockets coverage! it's been pretty interesting to hear so much rockets talk on all stations the last few weeks, considering how little there is in general throughout the season.

    For some reason I'm unable to listen to them from podbean. Must be blocked or something. Anyone want to up them somewhere else that I can download?

    I think podbean is having some problems. 1560 redirects to the podbean homepage. And 1560's podbean page barely loads and none of the clips work.

    Hopefully it's up and running soon. I just finished listening to the first part. :(

    For some reason, there's an issue with this. It keeps listing back to podbean. Any solutions?

    This is definitely the stupidest comment I've seen all day.
