    how many people that post here dont live in houston, or texas, or even the united states for that matter...

    ...i am from the great island continent known to you as Australia, and i know that a couple of other posters are from australia (smeggysmeg and christopher)

    where is everyone else from?

    fish,

    There are many Aussies on this board. I have always wondered, "why?"

    Are there many Rocket fans in Australia? Are games shown often? Just curious.

    I know that Australia is getting pretty fanatical about basketball in general, but that does not explain all of these Rocket fans.

    There appears to be a decent-sized contingent in Austin. Our home is there but we spend time in California too.

    actually, in australia, we get only very little coverage. i get all mine from the web. but we have a couple of pay-tv stations who only show 2 games a week, on wednesday and saturday......so tuesday and friday your time, and its never houston tho.

    houston only have one game on tv all year this year, and it was vs toronto (i think) where we blew them out! i missed it however
