Controlled Aggression
Russell Westbrook energy on the court makes the Rockets a contender in the West.
Most fans in Houston were expecting some bumps in the road to start the 2019-20 season when the Rockets acquired former NBA MVP and energizer bunny, Russell Westbrook, this past offseason via trade with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Visit Houston: Give Your Family Something to Talk About
After some hugs, a few laughs, and a good meal visiting family can get restless. A survey conducted by Motel 6 showed that the average American can tolerate their family for only 4 hours; with 75% saying that after 4 hours (3 hours and 54 minutes to be exact), they need a break from their families. Instead of lounging around waiting on them to return to their respective homes, distract them with the beauty of Houston. As residents of the fourth largest city in the South, we can sometimes take for granted all the gems our city has to offer and some of us may not even know everything in our backyard because we stay confined in our own little bubble. Use this holiday season to discover or reconnect to your city, all while giving you’re visiting family something to go home and talk about.

Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee Statement on the Tragic Shooting Death of Sgt. Christopher Brewster of the Houston Police Department
“The expansion of persons prohibited from possessing a firearm in the VAWA Reauthorization is the reason why it has not received a vote in the Senate, led by the Republicans. The reauthorization prevents current boyfriends, former boyfriends or those deemed to stalk their victim. The boyfriend loophole, had it been in law this past weekend, could have prevented Sgt. Brewster’s assailant from getting the gun which he used to threaten his girlfriend, but which was deployed instead to take Sgt. Brewster’s life.”
