    First, I read that Hakeem was taken off the top 50 list. I nearly punch the wall in the three seconds it took me to realize that it was April Fools.

    Second, Bill Worrell states at the bottom of the hour, that this was a huge game because Charles Barkley was starting at the PF. In the three seconds it took him to announce that Calvin was starting at the point, I had already picked up the phone to call everyone I knew to share in the miracle.

    So Clutch and Bill...BITE ME!!!!!!!!

    Is it any coincidence that we are the only team mentioned in the national anthem?

    I didn't think so!

    What about the Atlanta Braves?

    "...and the home of the Brave(s)."

    You know the Stars are in there as well! Missed that one didn't you.

    I guess I need to clarify my signature, despite the fact that the Rockets are in the NBA, not MLB or NHL.

    The only NBA team in the national anthem.

    My sig has been changed to avoid any further confusion.

    What about the infamous Houston Mobleys? I also hear that McNair may name the football team the Houston Moochies.

    Is it any coincidence that the Cato is the only Rocket with a temperature scale named after him?

    Funny story:

    At the game yesterday, they gave out millenium season posters with Calvin in a uniform announcing his return to the court. Of course, Calvin has one at his table the whole game, and I'm sure was gloating about it throughout the broadcast (beating that joke into the ground).

    Anyhow, at the start of the 4th quarter, Clutch comes up to him with an ad hoc sign with the poster taped to it, saying "It was a Joke, Calvin". Then he flipped the sign over where it said, "Rudy would play, before he'd play you."

    lol
