Great Job By All Tonight

I’m heading to the bar.

Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...

Firehouse?

Too Far

Going to the Dutchman. I can walk there.

Wait...

there is a bar within walking distance of your house? Yet another reason to look for a place in your neighborhood.

Yay, sports.

Unlike me.

I hated the pick. Though, to be fair, when we still netted the NT of the future AND a RB, I was a little better with it. My (then) three-month-old daughter cried after the pick. Probably because I screamed at the TV.

Yay, sports.

to be fair

we had so many holes to fill ,…and still do, that it was a toss up….I just didn’t want Schaub tossed up.

In other words...

you might want to hit “mute” and listen to music during the game

Yay, sports.

That's the better option

compared to letting my ears bleed for 3 hours

Fo' realz.

How does that dude still have a job? As a QB, he made Sean Salisbury look like Joe Montana and, as an announcer, he makes Brian Baldinger look like Cris Collinsworth.

Yay, sports.

Would you mind putting him on the list

just below Gumble??

And what really sucks

I remember in college if we didn’t like the TV announcers, we’d mute it and turn on the AM announcers. But these fuggers are one in the same.

I saw him on a few plays in the 2nd half

But to my disappointment, nothing to make a name for himself.

Methinks..

1. Moulden looks better than could be expected at this point, great news.
2. Slaton looks like the starter, prototypical everyday back or not, if for no other reason than he will be the healthiest (and tiredest) by the Pittsburgh game.
3. DBrown is servicable.
4. Our D looks deeper than last year, but starters are not ready for prime time yet. Probably look about right for Preseason game 2, however.
5. There is no way Jacoby fields a punt or lines up at wideout in Pittsburgh after last years turnover problem, and this years play so far. Is he the ONLY dude who’s turned it over in the preseason for us?
6. How good is the draft lookin?
7. Alex Brink got great time last night, got his first game nerves out, completed a great 3rd down pass, and looks like a solid #3, and #2 in ‘09.
8. Maybe we’re not showing our blitz packages which will help the pass rush. If not, we need a new DCoordinator in ’09.

Healthy and Turnover free 2008-09, and we win 11!
