    Well shouldn't Doc Rocket or whoever get the credit, not Clutch? Anyways, who cares, do you all really want even more people flooding these boards?

    Being the first to break news like this during "SWEEPS" helps one get an Emmy. Doc Rocket.......ooops MarK Berman will get a "deserved" Emmy for this.

    In fact, one and a half month ago, a Chinese article, (the writer always has the "inner source"), predicted all the changes that Rockets would make in this summer. It said that JVG would be the new coach. I said in the thread "No Rudy, No Steve" that:


    Then MacBeth answered my question.

    Now I am asking for credit to "breaking the news". And please enjoy MacBeth's post.;)

    check this thread and you will understand what I am saying.

    Clutch broke the news. If you say he doesnt deserve credit then Mark Berman has never deserved credit but rather it should be granted to the one who relays him information. From what D.R. has said he talks to Clutch and clearly so do other sources. Clutch created this place and took it far, far beyond a fan tribute. He runs the best site and message board on the internet, generated thousands of viewers with his content and posted the story. Credit should begin and end with him IMO. Congradulations on the overdue due and thanks for everything, big man. This site has been a daily stop for me for over 4 years now and it has taken me on one hell of a ride over the years. If I can ever help just holler at TheRanger!

    Good for Charlie.

    I hope some of those emails get through to Fox. I guess they think if they slap "exclusive" on it enough people will just accept it without question.

    I saw Giff Nielson also reporting that they were "first" with the story.

    Truth is: we here know and that's what matters.

    Great job, Clutch.

    I sent my email in. Kudos again to Clutch and his crew for being the first to break the news.

    My insider told me this when Rudy first got diagnosed. Maybe they were guessing, but I posted it way back when.

    looking for the post...
