Being a Houston sports fan is like repeatedly going to eat at a restaurant where the food is amazing and the prices are low but every third visit or so while you're eating someone hits you in the back with a tire iron

@mrburatti.bsky.social Considering the weather we’ve had tonight, I’ll request Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield… Feel the rain on your skin!

@mrburatti.bsky.social Thanks for taking the request! You’re doing great and we’ve loved the 90s tv themes!

Rockets playing tough out there in Game 2! Loving the defensive intensity from players like Jalen Green and Alperen Şengün who were excoriated early in their careers for not being great on that end of the floor. Great work from Brooks, Eason, Amen, Adams, and Fred in making life difficult for GS!

Whoo! Harden playing some ball in that 1st quarter.

Fox could be a huge upgrade for the Rockets, but I’m not sure about Houston making the deal. I love the plucky, young, tenacious group we’ve already got. I’ll probably get behind him pretty quickly if a trade happens, but I’m not yet sold.
FROM SHAMS:

JUST IN: The Sacramento Kings are expected to open up talks to potentially deal All-Star De'Aaron Fox ahead of Feb. 6 trade deadline, sources tell ESPN. There will be plenty of suitors, but it's believed that Fox has a target destination in mind ahead of 2026 free agency.

ROCKETS MOVE TO 12-3 WITH AMEN IN THE STARTING LINEUP THIS SEASON!

It’s so wild to root for these Rockets… They were so bad for three years, then frisky last season. But now they’re suddenly really good and my expectations haven’t caught up! My brain is still thinking, “I sure hope we make the playoffs…” when this team deserves so much more respect.

Needing a Monday Night Miracle to reach the semifinals of my Fantasy League. Alas, when one lives by the Jameis, one may die by the Jameis.

Hoping Aaron Jones, Drake London, and Cole Kmet can save my bacon with huge points.

(Is there anything less interesting than someone else’s fantasy team?)

Anyone know where you can listen to the #Rockets game online?

Man! The Rockets are scrappy, feisty, tenacious, and whatever else folks want to say about their hustle and desire to win.

But you know what else they are?

A really good basketball team. They’ve got talent to go along with that heart and fighting spirit, and I’m here for it!

Instead of sleeping, my 6 year old X’Savier is singing the melody of “Seven Nation Army” on repeat.

Is that ideal? No.

Am I exceedingly proud? Yes.

My mom gave me this map several years ago, and I’ve hung it in my office / classroom ever since. It serves as a reminder to me and my students that there are many ways to look at the world and that just because you’ve always seen something one way doesn’t mean that’s the only correct way to see it.

The Rockets have been great this season against the dregs of the league and some decent / good teams, but tonight they face a stronger challenge against OKC. The Thunder are a tough team with a bevy of talented players, defensive prowess, and a high-octane offense. Should be a fantastic game!

Disappointing end to an unexpectedly fun season for the Aggies. Excited about the 12 team playoff keeping hope alive deep into the college football season for more fanbases. Now to figure out which teams to root for in the remaining games…

Can’t remember the last time the Rockets won back-to-back OT games. Super thrilled to have them gutting out tough Ws.

Amen’s defensive tenacity and fast break skills are already big time, but splashing corner threes in OT? That’s going to get folks like me even more excited!

Brutal loss for the Aggies. Congrats to Auburn on a gutsy win. Even with the playoffs out of reach, still a lot to play for next week.

November has been tough. While driving to Florida today, I told Amanda that it feels like a good time to relisten to @aureliajoy.bsky.social’s book, “A Brown Girl’s Epiphany.” Here’s to following her call to extend compassion to ourselves and others.
