    And we took them to Americas? I mean, I like Americas...but we took him to an "order at the cash register and receive a blinky square" restaurant for an avacado burger or fish tacos??????

    Sleepy Floyd is not impressed

    Yeah, I didn't get Americas. I mean it's good and all, but it's a chain. SO many better places to go in Houston than Americas.

    You're thinking of Amazon Grill. Americas is slightly more upscale than Churrascos. That one in River Oaks is real nice. Chronicle had it in its top 100 restaurants in Houston list.

    I don't believe Americas is a chain. It is one of the Cordua restaurants that are all sort of similar (Americas, Churrascos, Amazon, Artista). The Churrasco steak in Americas is one of my favorite steaks ever. $60+ for 12 oz though.

    Damon Jones said there is a 60 percent chance Melo comes to Houston and if he had to place a bet he would say Carmelo is a Houston Rocket.

    Are we now asking washed up former point guards their feelings on the Melo saga?

    There was a drunk Kenny Anderson tweeting that Anderson is NY bound,

    There was a wuss Jeremy Lin being passive aggressive with scripture,

    Last

    We have Damon Jones saying there is a 60% chance he comes to Houston.

    Has anyone bothered to ask Matt Maloney yet? His shift at CiCi's pizza does not start until noon.

    The ambiance of that location is sick but there are so many places that are better, but not all of them are open at that time.

    I think they have 3 locations in the Houston area, and that's it. Do they have spots outside of Houston area?

    They should have just made grilled cheese sandwiches.
