there is goign to be a collapse here

by cubic on Oct 19, 2008 4:47 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Going back to Johnson

I like what I’m seeing on this drive. It’s like they realized that in order to have success, they need to be a pass first offense.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 19, 2008 4:53 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

what the fuck

is with the douchebags in ustream chat?

Consistent carries

Of 2-3 yards. We haven’t had this before.

about reggie bush tearing a knee ligament or something? don’t think he’s gone for the year though.

And the ruling on the field

is that they are placing the ball at the 2, and measuring.

Slaton runs the ball

about a foot away from the goal line.

Still inside the 1 yard line.

That lad

Quite talented.

I figured this was an obvious PA play… but I wondered if we’d do the run because it was an obvious PA play.

I don't know

but I bet they were testing it on Petey throughout the week.

KICKASS!

Love the Texans, Never been in Texas

by flanno7hi on Oct 19, 2008 5:24 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

It's times like that

that make me think it’s a good idea to have WR’s as the gunners on punts.

Just kill yourself, Smith

Why would you ever blitz when you have them on the 3?

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 19, 2008 5:27 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

because your name is richard smith and you don’t know dick about football

by cubic on Oct 19, 2008 5:28 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

why don’t we just put in sage and complete the meltdown

by cubic on Oct 19, 2008 5:30 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Do we ever force turnovers?

Just curious, because I don’t really remember any.

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 19, 2008 5:38 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Reeves got an INT

in the first game, I think. It seems like there was another one somewhere. Didn’t DeMeco pick up a fumble at one point this season?

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 19, 2008 5:39 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

yay bennett!

Love the Texans, Never been in Texas

by flanno7hi on Oct 19, 2008 5:42 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Who was it that just got run over?

It was a CB, so I’m tempted to say it was Bennett.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 19, 2008 5:43 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

come on!

Love the Texans, Never been in Texas

by flanno7hi on Oct 19, 2008 5:43 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Also, I'm shocked

that Zac Diles is turning into a sack threat.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 19, 2008 5:43 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Nickel CB blitz!?

Did that really just happen?

by DisplacedTexan on Oct 19, 2008 5:44 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

It's like Dick Smith

wants to keep his job, and he’s trying really hard, but he’s just too incompetent. Sort of like Homer Simpson trying hard to do a good job.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 19, 2008 5:45 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

the trick is...never try

by flanno7hi on Oct 19, 2008 5:49 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Bennett may suck at times,

but at least he’s there to make a play on the ball.

by Tailgate Andy on Oct 19, 2008 5:50 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Is he allowed to do that?

I’ve been watching Reeves, and I just assumed it was against the rules to look back.

@cubic: Russian!?! Teach me! HAHAAH!

a rundown of all the words you'll want to know

i studied abroad there and seemingly the only thing drunk russian college students want to do is teach you bad words. so here you go

hui v rot = a dick into your mouth (fuck off)
hui v lbu = a dick into your forhead (fuck off)
hui s toboi = a dick with you (fuck off)
pizdets = cunt (used as fuck)
blyad = whore (used as fuck)
yob tvoyu mat = i fucked your mom
pidor/pidoras = faggot

i hope this helps your swearing career

with 20 seconds left to get the punt team on the field (the play clock was down to 1)

They tried to lateral the ball a few times

but ultimately threw it out as one of the players was being tackled.
