  1. Greetings all.... .....maybe we can sum up this seemingly predictable thread in two words THE CULTURE! Yes! yes, that's it, let us somehow come forth and change "the culture" of the way we houstonians uproach this new and rapidly changing urban core, aka central business district (CBD) or even otherwise known as DOWNTOWN HOUSTON..... WE ARE ALL ACCUSTOMED TO THE POLITICS OF THE FINANCIAL INCENTIVES......now are'nt we? For are'nt we the ones who vote for the city councilmembers/mayor that introduce this form of tax initiatives/innovations? I for one have.... MAINVOICE.....just what is it that you are really trying to get out of your system? For it certainly seems that you are just "chomping at the bit" in regards to this all too familiar/peculiar thread -- you know that I love you good pal, but as well traveled as you certainly seem.....surely you are smarter than this right? We Houstonians are surely not the only ones that are going through this new mode of urbanization, for this is happening all over the country. But just as REDSCARE has indicated earlier..."it takes time" as well as big time patience. HOUSTON, has within it's very storied past/history, a verifiable nature of being one of the most ultra conservative cities that is known to modern man. Whether we like if or not, we are all the sad relatives of the "good ol boy system" from way back in a day. YES! We have indeed cleaned things up a bit -- but the very remnants remain........ CULTURE CLASH, is indeed happening all over this great city of ours.......we see it in the new urbanization of UPTOWN HOUSTON, we are seeing it in the ever evolving and rapidly growing MEDICAL CENTER, we are recognizing it in the new concepts/innovations involving the new designs regarding MIDTOWN.......for the baby boomers are moving back into the urban core -- as well as the new influx of citizens that are rapidly filling up our great city from all corners of the globe.......FOR ONCE THE CULTURE BEGINS TO CHANGE TOWARDS A MORE PROGRESSIVE NATURE INVOLVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUES REGARDING THE CBD -- then so will the attitude toward future investment. Houston simply has to let the world know that we are "READY TO SWING A LITTLE"..........for whether we care to admit this or not -- Dallas has been doing this for decades......and that is why they seem to be so innovative, as well as progressive within their approach to getting things done, as well as staying the course. DETERMINATION is the key, for we are going to have to be determined to be patient, civilized, as well as sophisticated within our approach......THE NEW DOWNTOWN HOUSTON IS GOING TO HAPPEN! For it is almost like a child awaiting christmas morning.......you know, "the visions of sugarplums routine" -- just keep in mind that the rapid change of a city's culture from one that has for decades moved at the ultra conservative pace of a snail -- to one that is moving and gleaming with a hip-hop rhythm -- is never going to be an easy asset toward mankind -- but an asset nevertheless.......

  2. MY GOODNESS LargeTEXAS! You know that I love you -- but somehow I sense that there must have been a few beads of pure sweat dripping down from your face in lieu of this startling revelation........ .....for we all know simply how hard it is for you to reveal certain details of future development etc. etc. Nevertheless, this is simply an incredible coup for the "Humble Tower", for this kind of street level fashion business will certainly invoke that certiain "aura of cool" that many street level merchants look for......if this boutique really is one of the COOL SHOE STORES that we are all really familiar with -- than this is a coup indeed...... Certainly seems to me that "THE GODS of the Houston Pavilions", are certainly starting to smile down upon downtown Houston...... for I am almost certain that this area is indeed poised to become a fashion retail heaven in the near future -- but then again, only you know that for sure...... right? ......just take your time.....keep us posted.......for this is why we love and trust you......... Metropolitantexan
  3. GM SEMIPRO = HILARIOUS! I am most certain that even the man on the moon knows by now, just what he is saying RS.......please remember the very first word spoken upon the moon.........HOUSTON! RS, you know that deep within your heart of hearts, that the MIGHTY VY should indeed be the first pick of the TEXANS............for I am indeed SHOCKED that you have somehow started the meltdown dance ..........and have allowed yourself to join the turncoats.......for as a season ticket holder yourself, you should know that the VY is indeed so badly needed to turn things around upon that 2-14 national laughingstock....... reggie bush, looked like a dryed up prune the night of the ROSEBOWL........somehow, I for one still do not believe he really knows who actually won...........but I think that he will indeed OPEN HIS EYES UPON HEARING VY'S NAME BEING CALLED AS THE FIRST PICK...... Metropolitantexan
  4. I have been glancing.......reading........and definately rolling my eyes at yours and DJ's post for several weeks now semipro........MY GOD! For even Ray Charles, as well as Stevie Wonder, could SEE what you two have been writing in regards to the upcoming draft.........it's just that, it is nothing that we have not seen or heard before..........ANY ORIGINALITY? I AM A REAL TEXAN! For I hold firm to my convictions........VINCE YOUNG IS INDEED A WINNER........and he will WIN BIG WITH THE TEXANS! Metropolitantexan
  5. ARE YOU FANTASIZING DJ? For simply the gargantuan sums of money that the TEXANS are paying DC, just accepting a draft pick is not going to sit well with the fans of Houston. For please believe me when I state that we have indeed seen it all , upon these same tired related issues nonwithstanding........ JUST WHAT ON EARTH, MAKES YOU THINK THAT THE TEXANS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL THIS YEAR OR THE NEXT? As you have so eloquently stated, this team is building from a 2-14 national laughingstock, into a new mode of respectability.......and this just does not come overnight........for VINCE YOUNG does indeed have his place upon this team, when he is indeed selected with the first pick.........just like all of the other rookies upon this upcoming draft. DJ, please do not forget that not only is Caoch Kubiak a veteran coach, he also a highly respected quarterback guru......... I have absolutely no problem allowing DC to prepare himself towards respectability under the tutelidge of Coach Kubiak........but I for one, and along wth legions of HOUSTON TEXANS fans, certainly want to see VINCE YOUNG standing along the sidelines, learning and preparing to takeover and lead us to the next level indeed........WINNERS DO THOSE SORT OF THINGS, YOU KNOW! Metropolitantexan
  6. YOUR POST REEKS OF ARROGANCE! But for what it's worth proHouston, somehow, I sincerely think that you are a good guy, with a good heart.......for I have indeed read many of your prior post......... NEVERTHELESS, I simply do not need for my any of my post to bring an "elevated respect" to any entity regarding the MAGNIFICENT TEXAS LONGHORNS.........for simply, the name "TEXAS" is already built upon a GRANITE ROCK OF RESPECT! LaMarcus Aldridge, should stay his overly ambitious behind in school. To not only finish his education, but to also help guide THE MAGNIFICENT LONGHORNS to their first basketball championship respectively. Hey great pal, I simply find it amazing that you seem to be so LOADED WITH COMMON EVERYDAY OBJECTIVITY.......but yet you seem to harbor the audacity to underestimate my integrity........ well now, I guess that I will be the one to just sit back and see just what you will come up with next........ HOUSTON, IS VINCE YOUNG COUNTRY! Metropolitantexan
  7. US! Oh no RS........please don't tell me that you are one of the one's that are harboring those SHOCKING BELIEFS.......no way RS.........no, not you too............no RS.........no THE BURNT ORANGE SUNSET IS BEAMING! Metropolitantexan
  8. OH MY, INDEED! One just cannot help but wonder.....just who indeed are the TEXANS FANS that harbor the "true football minds" that you seem to be speaking with........? .......couldn't by chamce be Dom Capers and his former staff, could it.....? YOU HAVE NOT RELAYED ANYTHING, THAT WE DON'T ALREADY KNOW.....OR HAVEN"T HEARD! But please ProHouston, allow me the courtesy of presenting this query........."do you by chance work for ESPN"? If your answer is YES.......then please release the band of reggies jock strap.......for he could use the extra support........and if your answer is a resounding NO......the please, just SHUT UP! Our Native Son is Coming Home...... Metropolitantexan
  9. TRADE CARR TO WHOM DJ? For if he ever gets that bad that the TEXANS should be forced to trade him......who will want him? And just what on earth shall we receive in turn.........? For everyone knows that there is just not a PANTRY FULL OF GOOD QUARTERBACKS left to eat........ For weeks now, we have been sitting back here and glancing at you and semipro discuss this profound topic of "reggie bush this, and whoever and whatever that", till we are all STEELBLUE in the face. Don't you guys realize that there is just no way that us REAL TEXANS will allow this "cardinal and mustard area code carrying acorn" to exist peacefully within the confines of our MAGNIFICENT CITY! FOR THIS TERRITORY BELONGS TO VINCE YOUNG! Haven't you gentlemen been paying attention to the latest polls throughout the city? The rb is indeed lagging everywhere......especially since the last time I looked. Everybody knows the parent company of the rb,(ESPN FLUNKY UNIVERSITY) is inded doing everything that they possibly can to muster up support for their primary course of "reggie bush fajitas" the very same way that they did throughout the months leading up to the ROSEBOWL.........AND OF COURSE THE MAGNIFICENT TEXAS LONGHORNS ATE VERY WELL THAT NIGHT, now didn't they........? ......reggie bush in Houston, come on guys.....for you surely have got to be kidding us.......RIGHT? VINCE YOUNG IS COMING HOME.... Metropolitantexan
  10. ....now, now, Midtown Coog........where are't thou KINDLER, GENTLER attitude....... Metropolitantexan
  11. Greetings DJ.... Can't you just imagine? "1836" had to be the MOST OFFENSIVE YEAR TO DATE! Especially if you are General Santa Anna and his renowned army of sleepyheads....... Hey great pal, if I were you I would not be to overly concerned regarding the prospective MLS stadium.......simply because we all know that it will eventually come down to sponsorship, which in the very end means $MONEY$. I am most certain that after this preposterous naming flap, that Oliver Luck is going to do everything that he possibly can to insure that the new Houston franchise will have a first rate as well as very innovative facility. For can you just imagine the overall embarrassment throughout MLS that this naming situation is costing him....... My only hope is that it is built downtown or in the midtown regions of Houston, so that the best fans(who very often may not have a lot of money) will indeed have instant access via light rail/public transportation etc... Metropolitantexan
  12. Greetings DJ.... Are you certain that your best friends relatives were not confusing Texas with the "Great Louisiana Land Purchase from the French"? As constantly corrupt as the Mexican government is and has always been, it is not surprising to hear this startling yet typical series of events. For can you imagine if it were true...........for if so, then Mexico would certainly be rich enough to not be so impoverished.......and their citizens would not have to constantly risk life and limb trying to escape into the United States for a better life. .......but as far as I am concerned.......the State of Texas is and has always been PRICELESS! Metropolitantexan
  13. Greetings pals.... "HOUSTON MISSION CONTROL"......"MC HOUSTON" This is just one of the potential name ideas that was brought forth from this very website to be introduced to the new MLS team's management as a viable contender for the actual vote........but then we saw that they somehow already had a whole list of very generic sounding names that just were not original in their overall presentation or stature. That is, until we saw the "HOUSTON 1836" moniker......and I was like "wow! that is extremely unique, as well as quite thought provoking". Then, when the new team's management came forth with the overall finished product....ie name, logo, colors. etc.....I thought BRILLIANT! MAGNIFICENT! .....for when I saw the addition of Sam Houston sitting upon his horse within the star......I could not help but think of HOUSTON......from it's revolutionary beginnings.......to it's glorified path into the future....... AND NOW THIS! For simple words alone just cannot express the way I feel regarding this mess that they have created with this profound controversy. Silvia Garcia should be "tarred and feathered" for her part in this......talk about "hyper ambition". I was under the impression that Oliver Luck was a solid as well as quite astute individual who actually had a backbone.....WHAT HAPPENED ON THIS FRONT! Surely, he is not going to just sit back, and allow a few minorities to start dictating on what we Americans/Houstonians vote for as our prospective professional team name? ........HOUSTON WILL AGAIN BECOME THE LAUGHINGSTOCK OF THE COUNTRY! .......and to think we wonder why we have such a negative national image...... I for one will surely stand up to the plate and let the world know that I have ALWAYS LOVED THE LATINOS, HISPANICS, MEXICANS, PORTUGESE, get the picture........for I have noticed for quite some time......even when I was an OILERS season ticket holder.....that the Latin community as a whole, just seemed to have an undying passion for their sports as well as their sports teams....... and you just cannot help but feel their passion, as well as appreciate their love for what they patronize......because they do it with a zest for life, spirit, and heart that is almost unmatched.......period! But as an American/Houstonian, I will also stand up to the plate and ask this community to show a bit more gratitude. For no matter what a few of you may think about our city's new MLS team's name "HOUSTON 1836" ......being able to live and work, as well as constantly migrate into this country by any dangerous/illegal means imaginable.....has allowed for you and your generations to rise above from pre-revolutionary marginalization, to a proud monument of a community that you are today. From losing to General Sam Houston in the war that was.......to now being able to send millions/billions of American dollars home across the borders to feed your families.......I for one would certainly call that the kind of progress that would render a simple name discernment of a new HOUSTON TEXAS team........irrelevant. Metropolitantexan
  14. Greetings WesternGulf..... In begging your pardon, THERE IS NOTHING FEEBLE REGARDING THIS PRODUCT......MAGNIFICENT WORK INDEED! so, are you a painter? Hey, do you do work upon request? One of these days, you and I will have to talk a little project and $$$........MAGNIFICENT INDEED! Metropolitantexan Vince Young is coming home!
  15. Being anonymous while providing queries, can very easily serve it's purpose, but it could also discern your credibility. It should become very evident, that the reason we would like to know your namesake or what type of services you will render, is because it will allow those of us who are familiar with the overall area and it's practices to better assist you......... Nevertheless, you have stated above that you already cater to many offices within the TMC.....well that provides me with the knowledge that at least you pretty much know your prospective clientale, as well as their eating/spending habits. Please allow me the opportunity to suggest that you look into establishing your prospective venture into one of the newly planned or already established professional office towers (St. Luke's Med Towers, Methodist Scurlock Tower, or even the Memorial Hermann Plaza currently under construction......) you may be surprised at how they can design your establishment to stand out amongst the crowd............and please believe me, there will very well be a crowd, if you offer high quality as well as consistency in regards to your product....... I DO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I'M SPEAKING OF IN THIS REGARD...... TRUST ME! It is not going to be your average "walk in from the street patron" that will allow you the financial windfall within the TMC.........It will be your call-in orders.......in the aforementioned, you stated the word "HOTSPOTS" well, regarding the TMC......how do you suppose that they become that way in the first place........BEST OF LUCK! Metropolitantexan Vince Young is coming home soon!
