T-mac Hater??

So after the Rockets dismantling of the Lakers, I got a few text messages depicting me as a T-mac hater. That is the last thing I am. In fact, I think T-mac is a good player but just think Kobe is a better player because he is more consistent. Many people also label me as a Rockets hater but that is not true. The Rockets have given me the happiest moments of my life. As a matter of fact, if you listen to the Tuesday Morning Longhorn at all, you know I picked the Rockets to make it to the Western Conference Finals with a HEALTHY T-Mac and Yao Ming. The proof is attached below in the podcast. I still stick to this because with a healthy Yao and T-Mac, the Rockets are a very efficient and dangerous team. So please stop making it seem like you need to rub it into my face every time the Rockets win or T-Mac does well. I am happy that the Rockets are doing so well right now without Yao because this is a tough stretch for them. If the Rockets even finish .500 in the games Yao misses, they will be okay.

So Who Do You Root For?

Ever since I started working at KVRX and hosting my sports shows, I learned the important lesson of being unbiased. After spending a year in San Antonio, I started rooting for the Spurs. But now when they lose, it does not hurt. (The only team I am bias for are all the Longhorns' teams...I feel like crap when they lose.) I do not have ONE team that I can make mine and that's one thing I hate about my job. I wish I could argue about my team with other passionate fans and be a homer. I love getting in sports debates for the sake of debate and trying to improve my skills but I never do it as a homer.

I root for a lot of players and don't mind it all when people call me a "bandwagon fan" because it is hard for me to be a fan. I love watching Kobe Bryant play because of his work ethic and his passion to win. I love AI because he never stops with the grind. I love seeing good basketball in the NBA. I think the NBA is the best league in the world and has the best athletes. I am a journalist at the end of the day when it comes to basketball so I try to be unbiased as much as I can.
