    Houston's McGrady will miss another week
    Tracy McGrady

    It appears the Houston Rockets will be without Tracy McGrady for another week according to the Houston Chronicle.

    With McGrady's return uncertain, the Rockets have gone 1-2 in the three games he missed and are 21-48 in games McGrady has been out since the 2004 trade.

    McGrady met with Dr. James Andrews Monday and agreed with Rockets doctors that McGrady will have to play his sore left knee back to full strength.

    That's what bugs me about this. I fear were not going to see any difference in three weeks. I want him to take the time off if it will make a difference, but isn't all of this something that should have been squashed prior to the start of the regular season? Didn't TMAC take a significant portion of the pre-season off?

    Yeah, if you put nude pictures on your site, you'd drive traffic to it too.

    If I want to see people poking fun or ranting on TMac, I'd come to Clutchfans. When I go a respectable newspaper site, I want to know what is going on, and who said what. I don't want the opinions of those sports writers to clutter the place. That's why I never really want to read Blindbury. His stuff is all opinion (mostly negative) and no facts. And his opinions are no better than posters on this board.

    Maybe you could start reading the actual printed newspaper. No ticker there I'm sure. I hear business is slowing down though, so maybe you could swing a discount on your subscription.

    This has to do with your expectations, not what is actually delivered or written.

    Blinebury disagrees with the ticker too. It's in his blog where he responds to a comment.

    Maybe that ticker will have the same effect on TMac that the tombstone had on the Astros.

    I can't believe T-Mac is more concerned about his health than keeping fans happy. What is his problem?

    Does he not get that we measure our quality of life by how well the Rockets do?

    He owes it to us fans to play no matter what, even if that means risking permanent injury. It's as if he thinks playing in the NBA is just a job or something.

    Stay classy chronicle...

    Problem is T-Mac admitted it isn't his health but it's his pride that he's concerned about. Listening to the Morey interview Hayesfan posted today. I got the feeling Morey was indirectly talking about T-Mac too when he addressed Artest's ankle situation.
