    I know he had (yet another) family tragedy, but I'm out of town and don't know details. What is it, 5, 6 games now, sure seems like a long time. If anyone knows whether it is anything more (I know he was unhappy earlier this year), I'd love to know.

    Johnathan Feigan was on 610 this afternoon and talked about Carlos Rogers. He has missed like you said 6 games, and there is a chance he might be at the game in LA, however most likely the next game. Evidentally, if you know anything about Carlos' life (without me going into to detail), how it has been one tradegy after another. It seems when his grandfather died over a week ago, Carlos has had a very hard time with it. It seems that it has brought back all the other incidents, and the Rockets, as they should, are allowing him some time to gather his thoughts. So, our prayers should go out to the man, and he will be back. I hope that helped....

    Carlos had consistantly had his family members dying. I remember when he played for Toronto, his sister needed a kidney and Carlos was willing to give her his, even though he may have never played in the NBA again. His sister, Rene, died before he could give her his kidney.

    Dude Carlos can take as much time as he needs. I've heard he is a really nice guy on the court and off the court. But he constantly has to deal with deaths in family. I hope u feel better soon Carlos, my prayers are with you and your family.

    Me too Los and I will always be ur number 1 fan. Poor guy can't get anythin his way! He is a great player and in my eyes deserves starters minutes which he will never get, he is constantly having family tradgedies. What does this guy have to do to get what he deserves? He doesn't deserve one bit of what he is getting at the moment concerning the tradgedies! Hope u feel beter soon, god is still with you and there will be light at the end of the tunnel Los.
