    Take it with a grain of salt, but the report below says that someone from insider the Rockets said, after the surgery, McGrady went to the TC, went to meet with Les Alexander, and cried to him that "it's not that I am not trying hard, but everbody dislikes me." The report states that Fran Blinebury confirmed he heard the same thing.

    Hilariously bad google auto translation:

    I have always thought that McGrady's play was due to Alexander being the wrong taste of wheat honey. This confirms it. Thanks.

    Yeah, to put it mildly, hugely skeptical until a much better translation source shows up.

    Hayes flew with McGrady to some Vegas event earlier in the year. Feigen also recently mentioned in his blog that their two families holidayed together this offseason.

    Maybe that's why some poster wrote Hayes was alone at some Rockets event. He's been iso-ed? :confused: :p

    I knew that the library at Alexandria held all the answer to all the Rocket's questions...

    The original text basically stated what Carl Herara wrote. Yes, T-Mac claiming everyone iso'ed him. Specifically naming Yao, Artest, and Rafer. Conveniently, none of them will be playing this season. Hmm...

    This is mildly interesting, I guess.

    Shame that it will just disintegrate into yet another MacGrady bashing thread.

    Indeed. The fact that it burned is a tragedy and will forever leave us wondering the truth. Did McGrady really cry? Did Alexandria offer him a tissue? These and other ponderous questions demand an answer. Someday, the truth shall be revealed.

    This confirms what many of us suspected for years.

    LOL don't worry winning cures everything. Kobe is the most popular person in LA right now despite raping someone, and people are actually defending MJ's HOF speech as just "being real". As long Tmac brings it this season, he can cry wherever and to whomever he wants and people will just see as expressing his sensitive side.

    So, the assumption there is that McGrady will bring it.

    What if he doesn't? My guess is that there will still be a large contingent of CFs clamoring for us to resign him.

    This is what makes the GARM garbage. Unsubstantiated high school like rumors and everyone takes them for granted?

    How about in other news: Unreliable Chinese report claims Mr. Feigen saw flying pigs and was concerned the bird flu had combined with a swine flu. This report is confirmed by Mr. Blinebury that was also there. The pigs claimed to be flying due to the fact that the other 11 animals in the Chinese zodiac had ISOed them during their regular season and no one liked them due to recent worldwide developments blaming them on the media for multiple deaths. The flying pigs were recently signed by the Rockets to training camp.

    There, now you have another rumor to hang your hat unto.
