    I've been watching Winning Time on HBO and it got me wondering what if they made a Houston Rockets mini series about the championship days. Who would y'all cast to play our guys?

    I know it's too late but I would have loved to see Gilbert Gottfried play Les Alexander.

    Stupid story real quick, I met Mark Henry once. When I worked at a bar in Austin, a stripper had rented out the place for her B-Day and he was one of her guests. He rolled up in a brand new Escalade and all of his buddies said that some car dealership was offering anyone who could pick the back two tires off the ground would get the car for free. 99% of the time I would have called BS, but when it's Mark Henry, I absolutely believed it.

    Is that too tall for Leslie? He looks to be 5’7 at best.

    I usually hear news of public people passing but somehow missed this.

    RIP Gilbert. One week ago.
