Houston 31, Denver 13

Dear Super Mario-

I am a heterosexual male. Yet if you asked me to make out with you, I totally would. You are my everything. Cue the Richard Marx, deejay.

XOXO,
Tim

P.S. Final box score here.

P.P.S. As always, a much more detailed analysis/mash note when I sober up.

Agreed

Mario's becoming a superstar before our eyes. This feeling of inevitable success is so strange after the conditioning of the first four years.

I'd add Kubes and Rick Smith to your list.

BRB does it again!

Apparently we can add Anthony Weaver to the list of those who read BRB. I chalk his eight tackle performance to Tim's motivational chiding (see point ten).

I'm sure Richard Smith had something to do with it...

seemed to be super-active. Von was toasted all night as he seemed to have primary duties on Marshall, but you gotta love how the team swarmed to the ball. With those crappy, USFL looking unis (yes, I hate them), it looked like a top college team playing a D-II.

Curiosity

Could the crowd noise be easily heard on the tube? I know how loud it was where I was sitting, but I'm wondering how that translated across NFL Network.

We can be critical of the draft picks, but in the end we always support the new Texan.

Actually,

I was going to ask about that. It seemed very quiet and I couldn't imagine why. I was pissed that the place wasn't going nuts, but I guess it was the broadcast.

You know

As rockin as Reliant was - and I know it was - the NFL Network didn't play it up. I don't remember once them alluding to the crowd noise. So to answer your question Shake - No, the "palpable buzz" didn't translate well to the big screen at the bar... but the players did look fired up.

Too Bad

When the defense was on the field, the crowd damn-near sounded like a college game.

Of course, when you get a lead in the beginning of the game and hold on for the entire game......wow, this feels wierd to be typing such things.

uni's

I saw AJ on the Official Team site front page and prayed to the fashion gods that the red pants were just a gimmicky marketing photo. Sadly that was not the case. Mittens is kicking himself that he never had an all red ensemble to work with.
