Hakeem came on Rudy's show tonight and apoligized to Rudy and the fans and clarified the situation. Basically he said that his comments were blown out of proportion. He apparently did not think the comments he made were out of line. From what he said he was asked by a reporter if he would like to play in Miami and if he feels he can still contribute to a teams success. ------------------ "Clinton lied.

Interesting that you bring that up about Dream and then I read your signature! lol! ------------------ Dream a deadly Dream. . . [This message has been edited by RocksMillenium (edited January 31, 2001).]
Interesting.... we'll see how this plays out I guess... ------------------ "There are three kinds of lies: Lies, Damned Lies, and STATISTICS..." - Mark Twain -
I consider that crap. 610am reported today at practice that Hakeem wouldn't say anything when asked direct questions about it. Why wait for a public broadcast if he was truly sorry? What is he calling Miami reporters liars? Now we know why he didn't make last night's comments to Houston reporters. Don't be fooled. this wreaks of politics.
hmmmm...apology...so was he apologizing for the content of his statements or was he apologizing that it was reported? I mean is he saying he didnt mean it? Because if he said he wanted to play for the heat, well..that's kinda hard to blow out proportion. ------------------ Moochie Norris Hair Club for Men - I'm not only the president, I'm also a client
i've heard of having the wool pulled over your eyes, but i've never heard of pulling the wool over your own eyes. see the light. hakeem is hagone.
Allow me to translate: "I didn't realize that the news in Miami would get back here to Houston." Old School ------------------ I voted YES!
What do you want him to do? Kiss your feet? He has no reason to apologize, but he has done it anyway. Show the man some respect. ------------------ "Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning how to put food on their family while being put to death."
For once , I agree w/ ZRB. Quit your fetchin' whining. ------------------ I keep plugging away, but I just can't get a 3 way to work on realwife.com
Hakeem did not fockass. ------------------ "No Brain Grant, no trade." -- Typos are a b**** as ZRB is holding Rocket trades hostage while he seeks a brain. Conspiracy theorists say this would explain why Hakeem has yet to be traded...
A little more insight... After finding out what was printed in the Miami newspapers, Hakeem tried to contact Rudy immediately with no luck. He was not a scheduled guest on Rudy's show and called in on his own will to "clear the air". Why he couldn't address the situation this afternoon immediately before or after practice, I don't know. Like HP, I'm not convinced that all is well again in Rocketland. ------------------ "Clinton lied.
