Bryan Pittman Suspended For Remainder Of Season

According to both ESPN and the Chronicle, Bryan Pittman won't be long-snapping for your Houston Texans for the rest of the 2008 season, if ever again. Pittman was one of the six (6) active players accused of violating the league's banned substance policy about five (5) weeks ago; we've been waiting for resolution of his appeal since then. As such, this doesn't really qualify as shocking news.

A simple search of BRB for "Bryan Pittman" will reveal that I'm not exactly broken up about this. Smithiak signed Clark Harris as a contingency plan for this very occurrence, so it hasn't caught the organization off guard. Thus, we're left with Harris getting his first taste of action in the friendly confines of Lambeau Field on Sunday in what's projected to be rather nippy, albeit clear, weather. No pressure, Clark. Here's hoping for an offense that is running on all cylinders, thus minimizing the number of times Harris has to see the field for punt duty.

Harris and Turk

Hopefully Turk is an upgrade. After the past couple seasons, it’s quite obvious to me that while Turk has a lead hammer for a foot, he’s also completely incapable of rational thoughtn once the shiz hits the fan.

Some teams play games on Sunday...ours goes to War. Go Texans!!!

Turk is the one

With the cannon for a right arm.

Damn

I mean, now who are we going to count on to be able to make a bad snap and then get an ineligible downfield penalty in the same play?

So you're saying that now I have to think of some witty Sig that will be applicable across all the SBN sites? Go TexanHornStros!

If only...

Travis could longsnap. He’d even work in a personal foul for you.

Yay, sports.

I'm sure

Frenchy could find a way to longsnap without using his arms

I vote for Steve Slaton

Field goals that are made when Slaton snaps the ball are worth four points.

It’s in the rules, look it up.
