    Houston Intangibles



    God knows what the logo would be, but it would certainly look ridiculous. I would hope anyway.

    The way I see it, the first part makes no sense. We wouldn't trade for Arenas since this has already been presented and Morey declined the proposal. Crittenton would be a throw in, in any trade and would a team really want both those guys on the same team again?

    Maybe they're trying to unload both and Houston with Philly could be mediators. Could be Iggy with Brand, Arenas, Crittenton, Tracy and AB all involved that's how I would take it. Wafer could be signed by either team if they really wanted him, am I correct?

    I caught your first post too Mark, but it just really didn't makes sense without any extra info. Now it may.

    IF there is anything to his 2nd post, I interpret it as follows.


    Tackling things head on by re-naming the team the problems means that we are tackling (Tmac) head on. The media reference would seem to imply they can and will trade McGrady soon. (The media has been overplaying his low trade value). But other than that I am coming up blank. It is weird for Clutch to post in that tone.

    Clutch is the new Doc Rocket?

    I always thought when he said "post game analysis starts here" he was making an Anne Hathaway reference...it was so random for him to say that...

    Exactly, and that's why I'm suggesting the Houston ICBM's...just sayin'...

    Ok, so if you're too lazy to read the last 14 pages but just want the best, I have compiled them for you...because I am kind...and I read all 14 pages...yes, all 14. So here goes...

    Houston Hurricanes
    Houston Fury
    Houston Knights
    Houston HotShots
    Houston Flame
    Houston Heat II
    Houston Torpedoes (I made that one up...I think)
    Houston Armada
    Houston Discovery
    Houston Apollos

    So there you go, the best of the best...I guess...
