    im a fan from "Bacolod Lanao del Norte, Mindanao Philippines". I am a huge fan since 2004, the signing of tmac to houston.

    Im a team fan now, as i realize that this is a team game.. I totally support this team and have been on this site since 2005 but have registered just this year.

    I've been with the ups and downs of the team.. I also felt the pain when they lost to dallas and utah during playoffs. I also shared the pain when our players are injured.

    I still believe on this team..

    I always check on this site whenever I am in different net cafe in my place..

    God Bless you all

    Been a Rocket fan since 1980 ! Watched them play against Boston in the finals the first time. I became a die hard fan in 1986 when my parents bought a 1,000 ft sattelite dish that picked up all the Rockets games for free on a station called HSE (Home Sports Entertainment ) does anyone remember that station that later was bought out by Fox :)

    Tell me about it. I moved to Houston in 82 and bought season tickets. It was painful, but I think the tickets were only about $17 back then, and I was 6 rows behind the Rockets bench ....

    But things got better in a hurry!

    Would Najera coming to the Rox be significant to you?

    20 years old, from the Philippines, but studying in Vancouver. Rockets fan since T-Mac came...I know I know, pretty lame. But I've grown to love them as a team, and not just because of T-Mac. In fact, I'm happier now with Mac getting less ppg and the Rockets winning more consistently than last year when he was in the MVP debate.

    Cool thread, btw!

    Those were salad days in Cleavesburg with Price, Daugherty, Nance, Ehlo et al. I had a great regard for that team.
