Why does it feel like he's fallen off the face of the earth? I'm probably an extreme case, but I literally completely forgot the guy was even on our team for a good couple weeks there. I was discussing the Rockets with a friend today who's also a fan; we were talking about how stacked we were. He was like "we didn't even have to give up anyone who was at ALL important like Shane to get these guys!". I paused for a good 5 seconds thinking to myself "huh?" before the light bulb went on. I haven't seen a single article, heard a single interview, or seen so much as a single picture of this guy since at least the middle of the summer. I'm sorry, I don't have much to say in this thread... but the guy needed a mention somewhere on this site. WHERE IS HE!? How does he feel about everything that's been going on with this team??? How is he doing in camp!?
"I am about the team, I couldnt care less if i have one article written about me this year...if u have a bunch of guys who value winning above everything else, your team will be so much further than the most" - Shane Battier
You guys watching the sports section on the local news? Battier is all over the interviews, mainly on Channel 2. Saw a couple yesterday and today.
Where have you been?? On the moon?? In the mountains?? Or carried away with drugs?? Did you read what I reported about Shane's visit to China during the summer?? http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=131940 Did you read about me reporting him donating US$ 50,000 to the Yao & Nash Charity Gala held September 14, even though he could not make it to China? http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showpost.php?p=3134635&postcount=1 Did you read the reports and photos of him working his @$$ off in the preseasons camp now, as Luis Scola is quickly picking up his famous slice-in to draw charge against him in defense? As Rockets fans, we all like Shane Battier...... Just keep reading and following on this forum.
To further prove that it is SuperMarioBro and not Shane Battier has fallen off the face of the earth ( ), I still remember right before the Media Day, Shane Battier was doing the Hawaiian hula dance with Clutch Bear and Rockets Power Dancers to season ticket holders at Root Memorial Park located directly in front of Toyota Center on September 27. http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=135124
I have a couple of gifts for Shane and hopefully I can present them to him Monday at the Rockets open practice.
