    Very disappointing. Don't provide nothing, plus Bosh hates to hear anything related with center position... More harmful than helpful.

    because he lives here and is a sport figure....you dont just want ball players, but other athletes that have lived her for along time and know about the city.





    What i dont understand is why they couldnt get more athletes? How about Bagwell, biggio? Where was clyde?

    I think they rushed it, which is why they ddnt have more athletes and why it seems "forced"...forced isnt the right word though, its more like rushed. They probably rushed them through it, which is why it's so short and they were speaking like they were trying to make time..

    I don't know, but everything counts in marketing and this is big fail. Add the caravan stuff and you are not giving a great image.

    I'm pretty sure George Foreman won't be able to convince Bosh to come to Houston.

    Yeah, hopefully Morey's sales pitch was smoother than these gimmicks. But if he claimed that LeBron/Wade/Bosh would win 45 games, maybe not.

    It would be epic if Morey presented a vid of Earl Campbell and his sausage...

    Stars have come to Houston before. Drexler, Barkley, Pippen, Mcgrady, so why not Bosh?

    A video of SpaceCityKid inviting Bosh to come get predatory on Houston women may have been more effective than those.

    Should of gotten Beyonce, or Destiny's Child sing to Chris. Whatever pitch they made, I believe Bosh wants to play with his buddies (Lebron and Wade).
