  1. There are a lot of new things going on at Sugar Land Town Square! Plus the final office building that will house Minute Maid is nearing completion. Now Open: Olives Martini Bar and Grill (between Cigar Cigar and Tacone) Vintage shave (between Mi Luna and Vintage Shave) Cigar Cigar (between Vintage Shave and Olives) Hemline of New Orleans (across from Baker Street Pub) Jimmy John's (next to Chipotle) Coming Soon: Escalante's (in the high profile corner spot across from Cafe Express) Fuzziwig's Candy Factory (between Jimmy John's and Sweet and Sassy) Strasburg Children (next to Hemline)
  2. Pleez, scottf is just supporting his team, he has all the right to do so. I'm a huge Rockets fan but we're not playing well enough to win. I think it has something to do with missing our best player. Anyhow..., let him talk, I don't see the Jazz advancing against the Lakers.
  3. Hmm, I saw a #33 and a #40 as well. Neither in the same ballpark as 50. Coog mentioned, specifically, that we're #50 in "so many other areas." That stat was challenged, no big deal. Haifers challenge each others facts all the time.
  4. I don't remember Harry's taking over the theater next door until 1995 or 1996. I know for sure I saw a movie there in 1993 and I know for sure I went to Harry's after the renovation in the fall of 2006. That brings the date range in a bit. I do believe the theater was closed for a time before Harry's took it over though.
  5. <Raising Hand> I do care because 17 maybe not differ much from 19, but 33 does differ from 35. Late in a baseball player's career, declining performance increases quickly. Luckily we don't have him on a long contract but if we did, you can bet Drayton would be miffed. I'd say that would be a breach of contract.
  6. Wow, this sounds great. Finally a development that is more consistent with Sugar Land Town Square. I was starting to wonder if any of these proposed developments would get it right. This is exciting.
  7. The pace of construction has slowed dramatically at BLVD Place in the last week or two. There used to be crews of 20+ workers, this week I haven't seen but a handful on the whole site. Any ideas?
  8. I hate to tell Garber and the MLS, but they aren't on the same level as the NFL, NBA, and MLB. I like the MLS, but there is no way that they can hold a city "hostage" and expect us to bend over for them. They are just not a big enough deal here for a threat of relocation to be a bargaining chip. They're getting free land, they need to step up and build their own stadium.
  9. Don't be so rude, he may not be from Texas. NewMND, here is a snippet from wikipedia:
  10. Can anyone recommend a good carpet store that installs and is affordable? The carpet will be for my house. I'm in the Sugar Land area if that helps. Thanks!
  11. UH shafted itself. If you play in the CUSA, you need to beat everyone (as Memphis has done). You can't lose games to lesser opponents (teams way outside the top 25) and expect to make the dance. Yes they are better with Penders, but still not close to making the dance. Pleez, they didn't even get an invite to the NIT. And I'm a UH fan.
  12. What do you know about the residential component of Cresta Bella? How many lots? What size? Price per acre? Will they be builder only or build on your own lot? Has there been any news on the residential component of The Rim? Thanks.
  13. Here is a new pic from this morning. You can see that most of the foundation was laid earlier this week.
  14. Losing to the best team in the league without your superstar is nothing to be ashamed of.
  15. I think last night was just a "perfect storm" situation. Everyone on the Rockets team had an off night and it just happened to be against the best team in the league. Adelman could've had a better game plan, T-Mac could've driven the lane more, Rafer was showboating too much, Battier had probs with Pierce, Scola missed layups and was in foul trouble... Put all those together and it was just an off night. One or two guys can be off and we can still win. The whole team? That makes it difficult.
  16. She's more than happy with a successful morning show in the SF Bay Area. It's pretty good too, I listen online often. Here is the link ==> Movin' 99.7 I'm happy with a new "free" alternative to 104.1 and Mix.
  17. Not to mention that local radio is free.
  18. My greed wants us to win 21 to have sole possession of the 2nd longest streak in history. But my mind says we need to beat the Lakers so that we can pick up a full game in the standings. FIFY
  19. The Mavericks can attest to that.
  20. Here are some new pics, the first is from 2/28 and the second is from this morning. They have now filled in all the old basement level parking with dirt to raise it to street level. That's at least 8 feet of dirt across the entire construction area (excluding the southern most 20% which was already at grade. The plumbing is going in now and I would expect we'll really start seeing marked progress soon.
  21. Dang, what took us so long to get this topic going again?!? The Rockets are all my coworkers and I can talk about. I can't wait for tonights game, I'd love to stick it to the Mavs! This team does still have some work cut out for it, but it's nice to see us winning again like we did in the championship years. Way to go Adelman and Morey! Do y'all remember this one?
  22. I know. I'm so disappointed. Why is it that these things always happen to Houston teams? When was the last time irk Novitski, Steve Nash, or Kobe went down?!? I really think this was our year, the West is wide open just ripe for a team on a roll to take the title.
  23. So Willie G's is also moving. That's interesting. Hopefully we'll see another vertical project on that lot before too long.
