"Houston may have an ugly skyline"

[der Kaiser]

Houston may have an ugly skyline. It may have muggy days and lots of traffic. But as long as we're honed in on this "TOGETHER" business, it's worth pointing out that the Rockets formed themselves into a giant fist and pummeled the Blazers on Thursday.

Well at least they have a skyline:lol

Houston is a fucking beast (click for greatness):

And that's an old picture. There is a new cluster of about five buildings at the freeway interchange (one over 500 feet).

I would of guessed Detroit.

[poop]

ugly skyline wtf???

Houston has one of the biggest and best skylines in the country. portland doesnt even have any buildings over 400 ft hhahahahaa

[Artest93]

He also said that Houston fans were pelting Blazer players with cups......I was at those games, that did not happen

[Indazone]

definately butthurt

[Artest93]

"And they need to never forget the way Rockets fans pelted them with insults and cups."

In the posted article above^

[spursfan09]

This is how you know you have arrived.....

City smack is all they got.

Anyway I have decided to cheer for Houston a lil bit. Not alot, but go rockets. :wow

Just like the good ol days of rooting for Houston (Astros/Oilers), then walking across the bridge to Astroworld as a kid--you can't beat those days. Or were you too little?

[Roxsfan]

btw, that writer kept jerking himself that the blzrs won the 4th seed, he mentioned it twice.......like that means anything. The top 2-7 were moving like pin balls all over the fucking place with one loss here and one win there. He said they lost to the lower seed:lmao

Fans didn't throw shit at the FailGayzers. Portland is going to have another 4-5 yrs of frustration until they mature and develop a post game, playoff experience and depth to be a contender.

[GuerillaBlack]

Hmm...he was defending Houston and knocking Portland.

I know that bro. I was asking if he was old enough to remember the good ol days of when kids in SA would travel over to Houston and watch a 'Sros game, beg their parents for a 'stros hat, go grab dinner, stay at the Holiday inn (back then they were the shit), the next day spend all day at astroworld riding some great ass shit, watching some cool shows, scoping the chicks, eating cotton candy, buying a t-shirt and then driving back home with the biggest smile on your face................

How did I give you the Idea I'm from Houston? I'm from SA born and raised...

[sook]

its pretty alright...but don't go inside. The outskirts of downtown has some of the scariest places you'll ever see. I dread stopping when i goto a game.

Only a fan of basketball. So when I said "HOuston" I meant only the Rockets and I'm only rooting for them because the Spurs are out. I've been to Astroworld by the way. was alot of fun, but its like another Fiesta TExas to me

[Roxsfan]

OMG, I gots to spell everything out. It's common for SA kids to love the Astros and the Cowboys. Many kids used to see the astrodome and go to astroworld, but I can tell you have no clue about that as u r too young.

Or Im not a fan of Houston sports at all. or Dallas sports for that matter. You are the one who assumed alot of stuff right away that I did not even have in mind.

Not here

[Roxsfan]

Not here

Fuck you. LA is a hell hole. It has gangs, prostitues and immigrant/locals crime all over the mother fucking place and a big drug problem to boot. GMAMFB. I used to manage that territory for 8 yrs bro, so I know what I'm talking about.

[IronMexican]

You sound like you're describing Houston. I've never even seen tagging here.

[sook]

Hey bro, I'm not bullying you, just called you a pussy, man up.

[Indazone]

immigrant crime?? You guys are coming off like morons. Why do you feel the need to get the last word in?

[IronMexican]

Those could be from anywhere.

[Roxsfan]

Those could be from anywhere.

its a Los Angeles Gang tagging search bro:lmao

All major cities have problems, that's my point bro. If you had clicked on one of the searches it would have pulled up one of the largest taggings ever done in the world bro------:wow right in LA


Authorities say the Metro Transit Assassins created the city’s largest tag — a three-story-high, half-mile-long scrawl :wowof its moniker along the concrete banks of the Los Angeles River. via

ast year the infamous "MTA" tag appears mysteriously along the banks of the LA river. it was record holding, about half a mile long.

Wednesday 8 members of the crew were arrested. During the bust confiscated a $60k BMW, a ruby-encrusted Metro pendant valued at $27k. oh and...

weed, cash, guns and lots of spray paint.

[BUMP]

Houston = the biggest shithole on the FACE of this earth.

Gang bangers, rapists, gang tagging, prostitutes, you name it.

You could make the world's largest museum with all of the tagging there.

Hell, you could make two of them

I'm from El Paso, I know a shithole when I see it

[IronMexican]

What the fuck is MTA? I've never even seen that tagging. But it looks like the bridge from Downtown to East Los.

Dallas is ranked # 5 in crime and Houston #10.

Look, who cares. Indazone is right, what are we talking about. I'm sure you and all the LA fans are ok in real life. Take care and great sereis.:toast

That's cool to know. I don't live anywhere near Dallas but thanks for the trivia:toast

[Roxsfan]

fuck off blabbering fool.

[Bob Lanier]

Houston is a tremendously ugly city.

But Portland isn't a city per se at all, so...

[ploto]

I liked Houston when I lived there, but I also knew where to stay away from like in any large city. It has a lot of museums and culture that I miss being in SA.

My favorite part of the Houston skyline:

Lived in New York, Chicago, and Austin before Houston and I actually prefer Houston overall.

[GuerillaBlack]

It's not that bad. Especially with the redevelopment in many areas. There are a ton of homeless people Downtown though. One of them asked me for my Celtics-Rockets tickets last year (when we lost the streak). I had to decline. :lol


OMG, I gots to spell everything out. It's common for SA kids to love the Astros and the Cowboys. Many kids used to see the astrodome and go to astroworld, but I can tell you have no clue about that as u r too young.

I know some people from SA and that's how it is. Spurs-Astros-Cowboys.

Ugly Skyline........San Antonio has to have one of the ugliest skyline's for a so called major city. I wish we had more modern buildings here like Hou and Dal but I think city government likes to keep it that way for the whole "tourist attraction" thing and uniqness. Hell, even Austin's skyline is way better than our piece of shit.
