  1. If Iran progressed to become what China is today, it’d be significantly better for the Iranian people and the entire world. I would be doing cartwheels as my ancestral homeland would have a powerful economy with millions lifted out of poverty. The elites of both parties and in business made a deal with the devil with China. You want their market and sell our people out then this is what you get:
  2. What a heady play
  3. Nice job Altuve
  4. Apples and oranges. Iran has a terrorist Islamic government that has made it a pariah state disconnected from global commerce. That’s a far cry from China with the purchasing power of 1.3 billion people. We do business with Saudi Arabia and a shitload of crappy countries on human rights. The fact is that Morey, the Rockets and the NBA didn’t have to state an opinion on what’s going on Hong Kong and Morey’s reckless tweet that is hurting the Rockets and NBA’s brand in their 2nd most important market behind the US. I am no fan of the Chinese government. They are interwoven in our business dealings and you have to be sensitive to their needs if you want to sell shit to them. That’s the real world. Fuck Twitter.
  5. How so? I don’t want my employees to spout off on political topics to piss off my consumers. That is a standard position to take.
  6. I love Morey but he fucked up big time here. If he hadn’t opened his trap on a fucking political matter the Rockets and the NBA wouldn’t be in the mess they are in. They are getting slammed by both the Chicoms and those on both the left and right criticizing them for apologizing. This was a complete unforced error. Fertitta paid $2.2 billion for the Rockets and a good bit of that valuation I’m sure came from the revenue stream they generate in China as the 2nd most popular team in a country with 1.3 billion people. I’m no fan of the Chinese government and those saying fuck them are living in a fantasy world when it comes to business and the dollars involved here. Personally, I would fire Morey over this but I hope to God Fertitta doesn’t because he is the best GM in the league. God damn it Daryl. Finally, if you’re a student of history like I am, you know the sensitivity of the Chinese people to this issue which the owner of the Nets does a good job in describing the Century of Humiliation under the Qing Dynasty with the unequal treaties they’re forced to sign:
  7. The 3rd phase of the game today was very troubling and is the only thing that takes away from a great performance. How much longer are we going to stick with Fairbairn and why hasn’t our special teams coach figured out what he is doing causing his kicks to tail off to the right. You’d think with all of the tape they have that they can pinpoint what’s going on. I still think he has a lot of talent and can be an asset like he was last year but if he has another game like today we should be looking for another kicker. Way too many penalties on returns and the muff was inexcusable. What needs to happen to fix this shit.
  8. Texans fans going goon. Say it ain’t so. I have never seen a fight up close and personal at a home and have been going since 2002. I’m sure Vic will have video
  9. Great team win today by our Texans. I hate Bill O’Brien but have to give him credit calling a good game. Ball got out of Deshaun’s hands quickly and had some intermediate routes to throw finally. Fuller was incredible and shows how dangerous he can be when healthy. Our safeties are proving to be one of the strengths of our defense, Gipson and Reid both had great games. Most fun home game I have been to since Deshaun’s rookie year in the game against the Titans
  10. 9 more. Rough up Charlie early. No mercy game3. Didn’t show the game time on the graphics they showed
  11. Fuck yes! Will Harris is the man
  12. You sound like hellraiser97
  13. Woohooo Correa is back
  14. Fuck yes Osuna. So money
  15. Shitty AB for Springer
  16. Machete!!!
  17. Snell’s out!
  18. God I love Bregman
  19. GHOSTUSER

    FUCK OU

    Will be my only my second OU game ever to attend in person. We are going to go in dry. Fuck OU
  20. How about a challenge. Go to Whataburger today, buy a cheeseburger and post a picture of it here. Let’s see if it has the cold unmelted cheese
  21. I’m not the only one saying Whataburger is slipping. It sucks that it’s true.
  22. Former UH HC Tony Levine recently became a CFA operator and is Jewish
  23. That’s my exact experience as well and it’s not just limited to a single location. I know it’s hard to accept for a lot of y’all. Cognitive dissonance and all. It’s not just them. I know Burger King was never as good but the rare occasions I go if I’m on the road it is the same cold burger with unmelted cheese. It wasn’t like that back in the day.
