    Attention, one and all: IT WAS A JOKE!

    I knew I should've stuck a smiley face in that message.

    how about we where the old rocket red unis when we play on the road against "classic" teams that haven't changed their unis and don't have the city names on them like bulls, lakers, celtics.

    I posted this 3rd uni design idea earlier, but the server seems to have eaten it.

    Here's an idea for a 3rd style -- a road uni with "Houston" on it. It uses the same basic design and color scheme, but has black as the dominant color with crimson and silver touches:

    Does everyone know that we're not the only team in the NBA where the jersey doesn't have the city name on it. People need to get a life and worry about something else.

    Well, one thing's for sure...

    With less that 200 votes so far, and with only 80% of those votes favoring new jerseys, we're not making a very convincing argument.

    Keep those votes coming!!!

    Do you know that I don't care about any other team in the NBA at all?


    Get a life. And blow me. You seem to like those kind of comments, so I'll use them too just for the hell of it. Sounds cool. Screw yourself. Eat me. Ummm....Matt Maloney sucks. Can you think of any more shock statements for me?

    The idea of copying other teams' BLACK uniforms is insane. Did we do that before we won the championships back to back? NO. We don't need to copy those other champions from the 90's. Next thing you know HAKEEM will come back wearing number 45. That sucks.

    I dont think they need to spend any money or do anything special for a new jersey, they should just have the occasional throw back games and us the retro jersey

    I did, but I was in a rush and didn't go back to see who it really was . . . figured it wasn't a huge deal . . . So topfive, your idea rocks and couchpot8to rocks for posting it . . . good?

    I would love to see "Houston" on the jerseys. Or at least that single shoulder strap design like the hip hop girlies wear.

    Being a Rockets fan who has never been to Houston (I am in California), I don't really care about whether the city name is on the jersey.

    However, I love the black color scheme that Topfive created, and wouldn't mind adding those to the Rockets' wardrobe

    The jerseys need to have Houston on them, and the franchise must listen to us because we are the ones paying all the bills....the Toyota Center is our house, not the Rockets...they just play there....Holler if you hear me!!!

    Continuing with the black jersey idea, here's my quick (and crappy) attempt at an alternate third jersey:
