    Back visiting Houston and went to meet up a few of my friends at Firehouse Subs on I-10 and Cambell area and ran into Mo Taylor chilling with his son watching the Michigan game. I have to say he has lost a lot of weight and was really thin compared to his playing days.

    Just took this quick shot since he was eating and didn't want to bother him. Didn't seem like anyone else recognized him.

    Cool story.

    Most players get fat after their playing days. Kudos to Mo for keeping fit. I wish it was the reverse. He was known to be one of the laziest players.

    I have seen him multiple times at the "Zone"...at 90/Stella Link. Seems he works with his kid's team. I too have never wanted to bother him...but yea he lives in Houston.

    When MO T was still playing here I ran into him at Memorial City Mall. Thing that stood out? Dude had a super dirty Maybach Benz. Wrappers everywhere, I was like damn man take pride in your ride like every player should.

    He was a solid player for us. What's Kenny Thomas up to these days?

    At the baseball game. Eating a hot dog. With a mustard stain on his shirt.

    LOL. Some posters think the DMo-TJones debate is bad. They haven't seen the MoTay-Thomas debate back then.

    Why do the Rockets always seem to have a flawed-PF glut problem?

    I saw Mo at the fire house subs in belaire last summer.

    He was getting some catering deal for a basktball camp he was putting on for kids.

    Seems like a nice guy and just trying to give back.

    Can't be mad at that. The fire house subs manager told me he's a super cool really nice person.

    Jesus. He looks, sounds and eats like a 60 year old bum. Couldn't recognize him without his fro and didn't realize who it was until It said Moochie.

    Dude, there's a nickel on the ground

    You could have picked it up and asked if it was his. "Hey, aren't you Maurice Taylor? Guess you wouldn't be needed this, then." And walk away.
