Okay...I don't believe Nov. 2nd is a family holiday of any kind. In fact, the attendance went down. You guys can gripe all you want about it being "the Bucks", but imagine how bad it will be when the Clippers, Warriors, Hornets, and Nuggets come to town (far worse teams). Maybe the first win of the year will change things...we can't play the Lakers every game. ------------------ --Nick

I REALLY got a bad feeling about this Arena vote.... Kinda pessimistic about it passing.... ------------------ "Her Box Started Buzzing Ever Since She Heard The CRÜE"
Its ok to be pessimistic, just make sure you have done everything that you can do to ensure that you and everyone you know goes down and votes on Tues. ------------------ Formal Notice This space has been condemned.
According to KPRC, the arena to this point is leading in overall voting 63% to 37%, with just a 4% margin of error. While the fans aren't showing up in full force yet, the arena issue at this point looks very positive. The fans will begin to come out more once we prove we are a winning team. ------------------ President of the Jason Collier police! Looking for next year's Dan Langhi? Draftsource.net ClutchTown.com
Doesnt matter if the ppl dont show up to the game. The arena voting is a good deal and I think they will get it. Also I dont know why you guys are making a big deal, the rocket games are always in low attendance. I always see about 3 thousand empty green seats. The fans at the game just suck balls, quiet ass losers. ( If anyone here went to the game, sorry ) How come the comets fans never show up at the rockets games? Those are some real loud fans. ------------------ "You look a team that's been to the mountaintop like the Houston Rockets, I'm going to put pressure on myself to be the best possible player that I can be.

I would say that 80% of the suck-@ss fans are the ones in the expensive seata..When I go to the games, I always seem to be around rows of loud,rowdy fans in the nosebleed seats. (Needless to say, I can only afford the $10 seats) ------------------ Formal Notice This space has been condemned.
Yo Rockets2k, i would have to make more money to afford the nosebleed seats! And u know wat, SO WHAT if only 10,000 fans show up. Im gettin a wee bit tired of hearing about the poor fan attendance, cuz it doesnt matter how many fans are in attendance, but what the fans that are in attendance DO Its pretty obvious that high expectations arent put on the Rockets this year. Most of the reviews i heard had them barely missing the playoffs. So, wat do u expect the fans are gonna do. When the team starts showing they can win, more people will come. Wat im worried about is the NOISE level. There was one pt when Calvin and Bill mentioned how QUIET it was. And the Rocks were slappin the Bucks around! TOO quiet for a home game when the home team is WINNING! ------------------
This never helps arena votes but it will not come close to deciding it. Nothing good in life is easy. ------------------ Save Our Rockets and Comets SaveOurRockets.com
JYD, I know what ya mean!! I scrape up enuff for maybe a couple of games a yr. And I wasn't sayin that I thought attendance was important, Was just commenting on the ones that do show... VOTE VOTE VOTE VOTE ------------------ Formal Notice This space has been condemned.
Hey 2K, Thats wat im tryin to do now! I wanna take my GF to her very FIRST Rockets game. Gotta scrape some cash for it though. Oh, and i wasnt referring directly to you about complaints about poor attendance (sorry if it seemed like that), i was just sayin how people in general shouldnt worry too much about how many people come to the games, cause it'll all work out. ------------------
Thats a damn shame only 10,000 people were at the game. I was there and the 2nd level was like a ghost town. Maybe the Laker game will sell out. You would think a team that can put good players such as Anderson,Cato,Dream,Taylor and 2 studs in Mobley and Francis could get a little fan support.
That's just it...the fans sat on their hands tonight. I kept thinking what a Comets crowd would have done with a 20 point lead. They would have blown the roof of that mutha. I could understand a quiet arena had the Rockets been on the losing end in the first half. Maybe everyone was just too sad to cheer after watching another dismal Hakeem showing. Old School ------------------ I voted YES!
I'm not sure I would call it dismal..He still is not a big part of the offense yet. Btw, How many minutes did Dream put in tonite?? I know that when he got taken out for the first time in the 1st, it was 9 min into the quarter. Not too bad for an old fart huh?? Man, that's for sure!! I've been to a Comets game, and it gets real damn loud in there! ------------------ Formal Notice This space has been condemned.

Laker game is sold out lilfrancis. u gonna be there? I am too.

Man I remeber going to last years Super bowl sunday game.....man I dont know if you guys remeber that game...but thats when we wooped up on the lakers and Cato rejected Shaq like 2 times down the stretch....right now there is so much more important things in life for my I cant spend 500$ a game for near court side seats....or 12 bucks for the nose bleed seat, I cant even afford Cable, so you wanna know what a true fan like me does? Grab my little radio from my closet and listen to Gene, any ways...i dont really know what this post is about, its late and i just wanted to atribute to this board. I dont have the resources nor the time to post like some others here, but that dosent make me any less of a fan, any ways..... laterz every 1...GO ROCKETS!!!! ------------------
The bottom line is Houston sports fans suck as a whole, whether it be baseball, football, or basketball. ------------------ Thought of the day... Why do they sterilize needles for lethal injections?
