    This place has been around for more than a decade. Will this place be around in 2050 and will you still be posting?

    I pretty sure it we will be talking to other holograms of ourselves in an interactive world. :)

    Who knows what can happen in 50 years. The Rockets could be sold/moved, the NBA could go bankrupt, etc.

    The Rockets may not be around anymore. In fact, I think the NBA will be the first league to go overseas and shift franchises to major world cities like London, Paris, Tokyo.

    Do you really think that? I didn't think basketball was all that popular globally.

    I doubt it. Time zone differences and things like increased costs flying overseas will prevent that from ever happening.

    Nah,

    The internet and how we communicate will continue to change, Yao will retire, and people will move on.

    It is already way different than it was 5 years ago.

    I'm 46 years old. I'm just hoping that I will be around in 2050.

    ESPN will offer Clutch an incredible amount of money of which he will not be able to resist so the site will be part of Disney. It will be around but mysteriously posters who talk negatively about Legler, Jackson or Hollinger will begin to disappear. Clutch will see the demise of free speech and start a new underground Clutchfans which will spark a world wide revolution in the world of message boards, which will bring ESPN to their knees. Clutch will go to congress to speak his peace and remind the world of Rafer's poor shooting, Ariza's poor attitude and that AB was a shooting guard trapped in a pg's body.

    Yes, it will. But I'll be 91 years old. I'll be less focused on posting and more focused on not peeing in my pants.
