You don't care what anyone says, Scottie Brooks was a good point guard 4. You've painted your car in midnight blue and white pinstripes 5. You have Houston Rockets Underwear 6. The rest of the world ceases to exist during a Rockets game ------------------ "Any answer that can't be questioned is no answer at all. It's gibberish.

Yo, Rockhead, I've met World B. Free. He's a really nice guy. ------------------ This is ktfirstbsktof01. I changed my email address, and I put it in the profile thing.

I'll use this username until I can restore my password.
