http://blogs.houstonpress.com/hairballs/2009/04/hannah_storm_literacy.php Good stuff. ESPN has been charged for years with having an East Coast bias. ESPN's morning SportsCenter anchor Hannah Storm somewhat agrees with that charge, though she says the charge doesn't apply to her show and says that to her, "it is a non-issue." And if she does have any bias, it's probably to the Houston Rockets. "I love my Rockets," she told Hair Balls yesterday. "I'm totally cheering for the Rockets. The Lakers are tough, but I love what the Rockets are doing this season. I love their depth. I really do. They've got so many great role players. I'm psyched."
one of my friends in high school would always ask my group of friends the same question almost every week: Do you think Hannah Storm likes the "Anne Hathaway?" but of course in much cruder terms.
I still recall way back when I worked at a S&L and we were seeing who had CD's with us. "Hannah Storen" was one of them. And, yes, she lived here and that is her actual last name.
I still remember her GIGANTIC AFRO during her Rockets broadcasting days. She was always very sharp and articulate. And she never even had to pose for any bikini shots. Anna Meagan could learn something from her. Good to see she hasn't given in to the Dark Side and still has love for her Houston roots.
I actually would have guessed. Something always seemed strange about this this post game interview. Like she was truly happy that the Rockets pulled that game out. Hell, she even appears to be jumping around excitedly with Clyde and Kenny at the very beginning of the clip. And as many of the YouTube comments suggest, it looks like she was ready to make some baby seals with our very own Clyde Drexler. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nhlAtdao-1M&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nhlAtdao-1M&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
I HAVE AN EFFIN' TEAR right now. No joke. SRSLY, guise. SRSLY. I LOVE MY ROCKETS, too, but I am not as god looking as Ms. Storm. I always knew she had her heart in Houston.
Hannah Storen, aka Hannah Storm, is the daughter of a guy named Mike Storen, who was essentially the most active guy in the building of the ABA. He was at different times - i think this is right - commissioner, owner, coach and GM. Very interesting and smart guy. Basketball runs old school through that family.

lesss goooo hannah. being from nj, i hate east coast bias. i get enough of the yankees, red sox, giants, jets, mets, and rangers without watching tv...
LOL! I was going to post about her gigantic fro, but you beat me to it. She was awful when she first started, but improved throughout every season she broadcasted in Houston and has turned out to be pretty good.
