    More than one person or more than one write up every month...that wouldn't be too much to ask from the entire Houston media

    More than one person talked it about it in a given month. It came up every now and then on radio but it never gained any real traction as a topic.

    You have to realize how few people in this city watch the Rockets when they were on every company.

    Hardly anyone wrote about it or dug deeper to find out new information. One month Barron would write an article and then everyone else would just repeat it. Then Jeff Balke would have an article another month, and everyone would link to his article. It was poor coverage. Heck, even Barron himself said this situation was above his pay grade.

    Eh, when it bites, I just look at MadMax and act like I'm listening, but really writing the script for the fourth Tobey McGuire Spiderman movie in my head. :grin:

    Jakes is a good call though. Or you're out in my area, IIRC (where we live when we evacuate).
