    Juss stopped by Rockets.com to see tonights game time and found this handy bit of info:

    ----------

    HOUSTON, Oct. 6 — The Houston Rockets today announced their broadcast schedule for the 2000-01 NBA Season. For the seventh consecutive year, the Rockets will offer the Houston community the opportunity to see every contest of the regular season.

    The Rockets over-the-air flagship, KTBU (55-The Tube), will televise 49 regular season games, and FOX Sports Net will showcase 33 regular season contests during the 2000-2001 season.

    Additionally, the Rockets will televise all seven preseason games in October, with each to air on KTBU (55-The Tube) or FOX Sports Net.

    KPRC 950 AM will broadcast every Rockets game this season, with Gene Peterson giving play-by-play commentary and Jim Foley providing color commentary. All Rockets games are televised with Bill Worrell, Calvin Murphy and Lisa Malosky.

    -------

    So, you don't have to have Direct Pass to view all preseason and regular season Rockets games if you live in Houston. Phew.

    I live in College Station. What the hell is "The Tube?" I normally live in Houston and I remember the games coming on WB. I have never even heard of that channel. I guess I am really screwed. I have to occasionally watch Dallas games up here on FSN. Why even bother showing them? This Sucks!

    I answered that question a few days ago emoreland. But, heck I'll do it again since I'm so nice. [​IMG] You can listen at nba.com or espn.com They have it 90% of the time. And Smeg, I haven't had time to e-mail you bro, got school work and basketball practice. I'll get at it by this weekend.
