    Man.. Even though this was written on Friday, but still Dan Patrick had us listed as the 10th best team in the West behind the Clips and the Suns! Please! We got a strong team, a young team and a team to be reckon with! Here is his comments on teh Rox..

    Rebounding a problem, Heck we have been outrebounding other teams! He needs to get his head out from the ground and watch a darn rockets game for a change!

    Here's the link if Interested!

    First, there was "Get rid of Rudy!"

    Then, there was "Our uniforms suck!"

    Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the latest craze in the BBS community, the one thing that will get on your nerves more than <i>Mambo Number Five</i>....Yes, it's the "Rockets get no respect" post!

    You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll kiss 30 seconds of your life goodbye...

    I have been very vocal about these media folks and their knowledge of the Rocks and our chances. However, I think his comments were fair and reasonable. He and many others have forgotten that we probably have the best rebounding guards in the league which could be the difference with us surprising folks this year with our rebounding.

    People think that just because Hakeem is gone we suppose to be a bad team. Well maybe they should look at our record one more time. And see that we don't need Hakeem we're doing just find!

    These "no respect" rants have been going on ever since '94. The poor attendance is one thing, but what ESPN.com or some writer from the Podunk Post Gazette has to say is of NO significance...People keep whining about it over and over...

    Just watch the game and have a good time...We'll get respect once we win some more games...If we don't, who cares?

    It could be worse...We could be the Bulls...
