    The last few nights this Clutch BBS board keeps breaking late night scoops. How can a Rocket fan get some sleep? It is 1 AM on the East Coast. Keep up the scoops. FREDTERP

    The board never goes to sleep! :)

    Seriously though, most of the big newspapers in the East and Central time zones post all of their new stuff about midnight in their time zone, the Chronicle included. Thus, all of the big scoops come out late.

    Clutch City never sleeps! :)

    Of course, here in Houston Rocket Central Time it's only midnight. And it is Friday, after all.
    On the other hand, if we had a life, we'd be out somewhere instead of in here posting right about now. :) Don't know what that says about us.

    The board usually dies around 4:30am and starts back up slowly around 7. Supposedly it sees less action on the weekends but I don't notice the difference. Wrong forum by the way.

    Regarding Rice's defense... I get the feeling that the league's man-to-man stoppers will be obsolete with the new defensive rules, or the lackthereof...

    Teams will be able to cover up holes in their defense much easier than they used to... And we all know the Rockets are Swiss cheese when it comes to man-to-man D...

    I think I am one of the lastest posters at night still on :) I usually stay up till 2 pacific to post which I think is 4 a.m. in Houston. Anyone else in a later time zone that stays up late to post?

    If I'm working nights, I'll stay online till 4 in the morning. If I'm on days (like today), I begin at 4 in the morning.
