Open Game Day Thread: Houston v. Jacksonville, Part Deux

At halftime, your Houston Texans and their embattled QB look legit. Words cannot describe how joyful I am right now, save the inappropriate questioning of Joe Marciano's lineage after that inexcusable reaction to the fake punt in the first quarter.

Keep it going, folks. Second-half game day thread is here.

Much, much better

This time around. Maybe we are the best 0-2 team out there.

Also, I know why Kubes didn’t call time out on the fake punt. He was saving his timeout for a failed challenge.

Also, there’s a good TVants stream available at www.myp2p.us.

He know that the Tits were better off without him, and he took himself out of the game. He just wants to help his team win.
