O! say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming.
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming.
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?
Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines in the stream:
'Tis the star-spangled banner! Oh long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion,
A home and a country should leave us no more!
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave:
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
O! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: 'In God is our trust.'
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands: one Nation under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.
The Rockets were 5-1 vs the Bulls during Jordan's first le run.![]()
*- I can't talk about 1995. That was a great run for the Rox.
Why? we are having fun
Oh. My. God.
It was a joke homie. Hence the picture of some rodent standing up or whatever.
I hope you can clean TD's splooge he's sprayed all over your lips, especially KBP's.
Nice of Houston to sell out their big game
Umm......the game is sold out genius. That bottom bowl is pretty much all coporate seats.
nice of Houston fans to show up for their big game
They are terrible , they show up 20 minutes late to every game ing bags just playing on their blackberryies
Those aren't "fans"......they're snobs, you can't see the real fans
good thing our fans aren't like that, we have such good fans
omg are you kidding me? That wasn't a foul? O well
Yes, with shane and ron in the starting lineup, the rockets defense is THAT good
11 first qrtr points for the cavs. The rockets let up a lot too, so i think cleveland will score 40 some points in the 2nd
Well actually the rockets shooting ty as well, 2 of the top defenses in the league facing off
Tell me about it, that was the second time Houston had a fast break stolen from them.
Will they be like that once Bronbron leaves?
lol thats mean![]()
