I didn't realize that the game was already on! I am going to turn it on soon.

Go Rockets!

If it is a boy, he is Splash.

If it is a girl, she is Splashley.

And then the drive to the hoop for the goaltend! I quite enjoy watching him play.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

Sam Dekker is just obliterating one of the biggest teams in the league on the boards.

Indeed. More runs than Tex-Mex through my bowels.

I expect the second half to unfold pretty much the same. Hopefully Dekker and Ego see a lot more minutes.

The bench brought more intensity than the starters.

I fully expect Harden to wake up and go all mad man on them in the 3rd..

I remember when being down by a couple scores seemed insurmountable.

Wait, I'm thinking of the Texans.

Harrell really has some strength down there under the basket.
