And We're Back!

Fresh off the bye week and seven days of posts that were barely news related (though I did manage to incur the wrath of soccer fans), today's Chronicle is chock full of goodies about your recuperating Houston Texans.  The main points:

-By his own pronouncement, The Schaub is "ready to go" and will "throw caution to the wind and play with the same vigor as before the injury."  Yes, he really said "vigor."  I love it.

-'Dre "feel[s] good" and is "good enough to play without any problems."  From his mouth to God's ears.

-Despite my concerns to the contrary, Dr. Andrews found nothing new in Ahman's creaky knee. The Texans expect him to play against New Orleans, though he will practice on a very limited basis for the remainder of the season.

And I've saved the best for last:  Petey will not start on Sunday.  Von Hutchins will take over opposite Fred Bennett, and Will Demps will start at FS.  How could Kubes have thought of that?

I, state your name, ...

Nice one.  I'll swear on a stack of Bibles the switch was borne on your suggestion... Now if you could only convince Kubes to save Dayne for 3rd and short - and I mean only 3rd and short, we'll be in buisness.

Shakin 'em off one win at a time...

Re: RBs
With regard to using my powers to influence Kubes' choice of RBs, I'm thinking my first priority should be to persuade Ahman Green's knee to stop being such a wussy.
Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...

No shit
Can we offically call him Bruce Wayne? I'm giving him one more game, then its on to Bravo Whiskey... because Tango Bravo he is not.

Winner
Although, I'm absolutely certain that Matt will use waaayyy more cursing to describe the switch at cornerback.
We can be critical of the draft picks, but in the end we always support the new Texan.

Damn
I let you down.  My bad.

You were too busy trying to save Carr's job.

I'm not sure <i>which</i> Carr...
you are talking about, but either way it's a lie.  Bastard.

heh
that's why I didn't qualify which Carr.  I just assumed both.

That name's gonna haunt you the rest of your life, isn't it?  On your death bed, somebody will talk about the new car they bought.  You'll yell out "FUCKWAD" and keel over dead.  It'll be cool.

Oh, in 90 years or so.

That would be awesome.
Both the fact that my last words would include "fuck" and the fact that I would be dying at 119 years old.  That's a solid 50 years of telling kids to get off my damned lawn.

re: Let Down
Sadly, I'm getting used to it.   sigh
