The Day After the Day After…when the raw, immediate emotions from the aftermath of a game diminish into the realm of clarity and the proverbial (or literal) hangover no longer haunts the mind. With that, a review of Week 7: Maybe it WAS the opponents: When Houston outscored the Titans and Ravens 70-10, it did […]

The Houston Rockets fell to the Oklahoma Cty Thunder on Tuesday night, losing 125-124 in overtime in the season opener, allowing the defending champs to come from behind, and allowing some boneheaded plays to end their night on a sour note. First, Kevin Durant fouled Shai Gilgeous-Alexander with 2.3 second remaining in the second overtime, […]
Houston nearly beat the Warriors last postseason in a thrilling seven-game series. They have accrued so many young players over the last handful of years in their rebuild after James Harden left, and last year’s playoff exit signaled the need for a change. Jalen Green was the obvious candidate to be shipped out, and that […]

The Houston Rockets are back, ladies and gentlemen! Not just back playing again (that, too), but back in contending status heading into the season. Sure, the Rockets finished second in the Western Conference last season, which measures up as a viable contender (especially in the West) but that wasn’t expected. The Rockets caught everyone by […]

Walker Janek, the Astros first round pick from 2024, if off to a tremendous start. He’s played in 7 games and leads the Arizona Fall League with 18 runs batted in. He’s also connected on 3 doubles and 3 home runs. This included a ridiculous 7 RBI last Friday. Great start for Janek. Joseph Sullivan had […]
I’ve been writing for this site for going on five years now. I have been watching Houston Texans football since they beat Dallas 19-7. I have been watching Houston NFL football since the late 1970s. At no point did it ever feel like work. Last night did. A lot of it was a quick turnaround […]

First things first, I want no part of any of these late kickoff games during the regular season. It’s bad enough that they have them during the preseason, we don’t need them when the games actually count. The way the Seattle Seahawks played against the Houston Texans on Monday Night Football didn’t help. Yes, Seattle […]

The city of Houston hasn’t seen a snap of Texans football since their 44-10 manhandling of the Baltimore Ravens way back on October 5. Since then, the Colts have roared to 6-1, the Jaguars are turning into pumpkins and the Titans are.. well, the Titans. With that said, the national spotlight was on Houston and […]
This was not the night Seattle sports fans wanted, it’s not the night Seattle sports fans deserved, but it wasn’t a lost cause for Seattle sports. While the Seattle Mariners came agonizingly close only to fail to reach their first World Series, the Seattle Seahawks overcame their many self-inflicted wounds to defeat the Houston Texans […]
Words cannot really do justice to that Monday Night Football madness. The Seattle Seahawks suffocated the Houston Texans offense all game, and yet ended up with four turnovers committed and needlessly let Houston have a slim hope of a comeback. After racing out to a 14-0 lead, it looked like it’d be an easy night […]
Tonight begins the most anticipated season in Houston Rockets history since the 2017-18 season that saw Chris Paul force his way out of Los Angeles for the chance to play with James Harden. This version of the Rockets doesn’t have a Harden-level superstar, but they have an exciting young core and a head coach that […]
Unfortunately, the Seattle Mariners blew Game 7 against the Toronto Blue Jays and will not be going to the World Series for the first time. Fortunately, the Seattle Seahawks are winning 14-6 at the half against the Houston Texans. Unfortunately, they have squandered many opportunities to be up by more. A Drake Thomas fumble return […]
