I stayed, but did I think the rockets were going to tie it. Not really, but there is always that possibility and Tuesday night that possibility became reality. <br /><br />If getting home 5 minutes earlier is more important than watching the end of a game then just save yourself money and stay home you fairweather fans! <br /><br />On another note the rockets have been playing very sloppy the last few games yet still finding ways to win. How long can they keep this up though before it bites them in the ass? jaz301https://www.blogger.com/profile/17544148904832168164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8092520535436243757.post-28465625104028795072013-12-04T07:53:22.973-08:002013-12-04T07:53:22.973-08:00I am not kicking a player when he is down.

Not till late in the game, but I could be wrong? I am glad you criticize me for pointing out an individuals error and then ended up criticizing one yourself. Hmm.
