    Do you guys have any problems with the fact that our jerseys do not say "Houston" on them? I was looking at the Pacers new jerseys and was thinking "man, it would be awesome if atleast our road jerseys said 'houston' across the top instead of 'rockets'." maybe its just me, but I would love to see the team representing its hometown...

    I'm fine with the jerseys. I think most teams now have just the nicknames, without the city names. The Raptors omitted the Toronto on their away jerseys, and most team jerseys no longer have those city names. I personally am fine with the current jerseys but I won't mind an alternate.

    I would really like to see a Black/Red Jersey with "HOUSTON" in front of the jersey. Have any of you guys noticed that the Rockets are using more black this year? Just look at Houston's sig.

    Yeah I think it'd be good to have a new Alternate Jersey which had Houston written on the the front, but I wouldn't change the current Home or Away tops...

    i know this is supersticious but when was the last time a team without regular block numbers and a normal classic style uniform won a championship, personally i hate the uniforms, love the rockets, but hate the numbers on the uniform and the way ROCKETS is written

    I love the current uniforms! I think a black and red alt one would be sweet but I really don't think it's neccessary to write Houston on them

    Anything is better than the uniforms during the barkley / pippen years... omg.. I wanted to barf when I saw them for the first time. As long as they don't go back to that.. I couldn't care less what the new jerseys look like. [​IMG] plus.. they bring back bad memories for me.

    Everyone who says they don't care or don't want a jersey that says Houston on it ISN"T from Houston. OF COARSE we should have one that says Houston. There is alot of pride for people living in Houston, people who don't live here just don't understand. Maybe the jersey should say H-Town, or Screwston, or HustleTown. heh... Yea, I like that.

    Um, Who cares. I think being in the league for more than two decades, people should know by now that the "Houston Rockets" are located in "Houston"[​IMG] . It doesn't make any difference alsong as they win ball games.

    Well. The Rockets could've left, had it not been for SaveOurRockets. On top of that, it's like saying they have no pride representing the city of Houston. On the away jerseys atleast, they should represent the city.

    [SARCASM]Of course it doesn't matter if they just win games, but hell, if it's JUST about winning, then why not wear nothing at all?[/SARCASM]

    I really think this Jersey business is no big deal and to be honest i couldn't care less if they were wearing G-strings to the game just as long as they feel comfortable in them.
