Houston was struck by intense thunderstorms last Thursday. Strong winds and a few tornadoes impacted the metro area, causing widespread damage, killing seven, and knocking out power to thousands.

Stroud continues to endear himself to Houston fans after an outstanding rookie season. It started with some of his bullish quotes about encouraging the team’s fans, and he has really embraced the city and its fans. It helps that he led the team to the playoffs as a rookie, too.
