    Saw these photos from Sina.com.

    Searched the Rockets.com and other Rockets related source of information all over, and could not find out what this is all about.

    Anyway......just share these with you guys.

    Looks like the more established stars of the Rockets (Tracy McGrady, Shane Battier, Rafer Alston, Bonzi Wells, Juwan Howard, Deke Mutombo and Yao Ming) are exempted from this community event..........

    I think Casey Jacobsen took a 2nd job as a sacker. It's just something to fall back on after he gets cut.

    As for the other guys, I think Casey convinced them that it was a fun gig, and HEB would grant them permission to wear their team sweats.

    You'd look like garbage too if you had to spend 80% of your yearly salary on Mach3 refills.

    Lol!! VSpan looks like some regular jo-smo out there. I bet even average Rocket fans couldn't tell who he was if they saw him in public.

    Boy! Sura sure has put on a A LOT of weight in his time off. :D

    I think this years fan/player theme should be we should all grow scruffy like vspan. It would be great to see yao and battier with a little scruff.

    Rockets dont pay Baklava enough. That charity is supposed to go to regular folks but Baklava felt the need to grab a bag Lay's potato chips for himself!

    1. Ladies and Gentlemen, Casey Jacobsen is here to stay. He's the only player without a guaranteed contract to show up at the event. Co-incidence? I think not.

    You wouldn't want the old ladies at the supermarket to turn on the Rockets game, expecting to see the nice tall kid from Stanford and find out he's cut. Can't afford to anger old lady fans like that, especially Van Gundy has already alienated the Little People community.

    2. Spanoulis' rookie hazing should be a mandatory shave-- all over his body. I've seen Wookies with less hair.

    Actually he has a partially guaranteed contract. Which mean he is on the Rockets payroll and can put to work to earn some of those bucks.

    HEB needs to include Yao and Tracy in those commercials with Carr, Clemens, and Petitte.

    (Yao and T-Mac ring Roger's doorbell)

    T-Mac: Hey Roger, Yao blocked my shot and the ball landed in your yard.

    Clemens: But your house is 10 blocks away.

    Yao: You grillin'?
