Comets at Reliant Arena?

I first wrote this on November 7; then, I posted it on the HRR message board; now, I'll copy and paste it here:

I went to Reliant Arena tonight to check out the men's exhibition game between the Rice Owls and Incarnate Word; and, guess who I saw?

First, Hilton Koch, owner of the Houston Comets; and, next, Karleen Thompson, Comets head coach.

Hilton was on his phone when I saw him; and, we shook hands (then, I went to eat). If you're wondering whether they were there to check out the game, I'd have to say you're wrong.

Karleen walked around the arena with three gentleman looking at the facility; and, a friend of mine told me one of the three gentleman was involved with operations at The Summitt. Karleen spoke with these men for quite a while.

Hmmm...What do you believe is going on?

    I heard that Hilton lost a lot of money last year and that he and KT know that our players with "star" power are not coming back. I am a Rice STH and parking was a big deal to us at the Arena. The place is old, the seats are old, and the bathrooms are pathetic. The concession stand food is cold. The staff in the yellow shirts are unfriendly, there is no video screen (comets issue, we did not have one at Autry), and could you imagine competing with Texans, and all of the conventions at Reliant. Do go here Hilton and that's a fact jack.
