    OMG- I'm not just saying this because it's Clutch, but this is award-winning stuff- "The Problems have acquired the Answer"- sides hurt from laughing- THANKS A LOT!

    They could play the Sex Pistols' "Problems" every time they took the court for pre-game warmups:

    "Too many problems
    Oh why am I here
    I need to be me
    'Cos you're all too clear
    And I can see
    There's something wrong with you
    But what do you expect me to do?
    At least I gotta know what I wanna be
    Don't come to me if you need pity
    Are you lonely you got no one
    You get your body in suspension
    That's no problem, problem
    Problem, the problem is you"

    might as well get back the Houston Gamblers since it seems that's what refs were doing everytime we had a big game.

    Hello, Miguel Molina here. BBS poster and Rocket enthuuuuusiast. Is your Cat making too much NOOOISE all the time? Is your Francis constantly dribbling around driiiiving you CRAAAAAAZY?!

    Is your Cato clawing at your salary cap?

    Think there's no answer?

    YOU'RE SO STUPID




    ...I couldn't think of how to end this, as Rocket Mittons is kinda lame... so I'm just gonna cut the joke there.

    In honor of Trader_Jorge, long may he lurk, I propose: The Houston Conquistadors.

    Probably not going to help that much with the PC issue though, if "Rockets" becomes a ... Problem.

    First of all I don't think will happen because in this case I think Rocket refers to the vehicle used to get our Astronauts into space. I know they came from San Diego, but I believe that was also their intention, it just worked well for us.

    That being said, if they *had* to change it and they stayed in Houston, I think the would stay with the aerospace theme and go with the Houston Starships :D
