Kneel Down To Your New Blogging Overlord

Hi, I'm bfd, and you may know me from such films as "You Can't Stick That in There," "Haircut: Starring David Carr," and atexansblog.com.
When Matt originally asked me to join DGDB&D, there were a couple of ground rules. First, there's no such thing as enough cussing. Secondly, the Houston Chronicle sucks, and I should always remember that.
When Tim asked me to join BRB, he also set some rules. First, no cussing. Second? Put on some damn pants. Third, for the love of *insert god of your choice here*, put on pants. Nobody wants to see that!*
Sheesh, rules are hard.
With an incredible group - Jake, Riott, DreKeem, and Mike - already in place here, I'll contribute what I can: jokes about my lack of sex, rampant alcoholism, and my true love of...ummmm...you know...females have 'em. Wow, not cussing literally took away 85% of my vocabulary. So much for that English undergrad. Oh, and I'll occasionally post about football.
In reality, I'm beyond honored that Tim asked me to join. I've long believed that the Texans have the best blogosphere in the business, even including me. With BRB user ID #31, I signed up for BRB less than a month after Tim. In this time, BRB - and the rest of SBNation - has evolved into quite the force. I'm excited to be here.
Personally, I just hope to live up to the high standards set by previous BRB blogging luminaries such as Scott.
Your new BFF,
bfd
*Rules may or may not be real.

Word
Don’t you dare think about hanging it up, Chris. The Texans blogosphere can’t take another hit.
Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...
true dat
Honestly, I kinda know where you live, and I will so kick your ass.
Remember: I quit “that other blog” because I am a lazy MFSOB. Not because I am good.
Chris, that would be absolutely unacceptable
As much as us SBNation guys like taking over the world we all love your stuff

cussing
fact is, Tim has a great point. All of Tim’s points are great. I love Tim, our dear leader.
Matt and I cussed so much….we got banned by most safe surf type companies. Not good. So, yeah, I will watch my mouth here. Cept on game threads.

LOL, yes - game threads
I think I set an internet record for f-bombs in a ten second period when the Rosencopter happened. My fingers were smoking!

I only had internet access to that game
I stepped out for a second, came back and your comment was the first one I saw, Chris. And I knew it could only be Rosenfels.
Ya, that's for that mofo

For some fine shining of the ol’ arse, BFD. Keep that sort of unadulterated praise up and I’ll give you a coupon for one free topping on your next order at Papa John’s.
Unfortunately, BFD’s right. I hate censoring. Really, I do. The only reason I ask the writers here to keep profanity to a minimum is so BRB doesn’t get banned at various workplaces. Because if we can’t give you some distraction at work, what exactly are we doing this for?
Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...
I keep waiting for Dave to screw up the Dream Shake for me
And get it blocked so I can’t post at work

Old school bloggers rule
I think its funny that we’re ancient in blog years. Been spending my time this past offseason at astroscounty.com talking with the Constable. But with THE season approaching, I’m getting the itch to talk Texans.

Welcome Back, TPL and Shake
One of my hopes was that BFD’s addition to the squad would bring some of the “original” commenters back to the site. Nice to see BFD’s already paying dividends.

Tim, I'm still filling rejected (sniff, sniff)
But decided to post a little on the fan side anyway. I’ve go to piss people off some how.
However I do like your choices for additional contributors so you are forgiven for rejecting the rest of us. (besides we can get revenge by busting on your posts)

Damn...I thought you died
Oh wait, that was Michael Jackson. If only the media would have covered it more, then I could remember it easier.
Is the pants rule just for you or does it apply to all of us? I usually take my pants off whenever I read this blog.
Rule one of blogging
No pants.
So I assume that the rules for READING a blog are even more lax. You could probably get away with completely nude, except for white socks.

Well the sleaze factor over here just improved exponentially
A little spice in the salsa is always a good thing. Sorry to hear about the demise of DGDB&D, but it will be nice to read your stuff here.
Hopefully Matt will put the occasional post up at the other blog. I’d like to hear how Frank Okam manipulates Trav a little more.
When I'm on the mic, I'm like global warming, you can't ignore me.

testing, testing
Is this thing on? Is this where I come to b*tch about the Sex Cannon being shackled to the bench during pre-season??
Wait...
Were they SERIOUS about the not-cussing part??
That’s kind of a big deal to me.
They meant, don’t cuss “AT SOMEONE” correct? man… that kinda chinks my mojo too…
crap.
Bacon tastes good... Pork chops taste good.
Re: Wait
The “keep cussing to a minimum” is more for the writers for the purpose of work search engines. Go nuts in the Comments.

what about
What about posting NSFW pics of Filipino Tranny Porn here?
Is it allowed or only sometimes allowed? ;-)
Handled
On a case-by-case basis. Ironclad rules in that department could mistakenly cause all of us to miss out on something beautiful.

Well...
Am I the only one who went cross-eyed at seeing “scott” and “high standards” in the same sentence? Equaling Scott is like beating a pygmy at basketball. Even my hobbled grandmother could do it.
All kidding aside, I had $#%!#$^!%!% fun following DGDB&D, but it’s good to see that you’ll still be posting somewhere. It looks like I’ll have to reshuffle my Texans bookmarks and put BRB back at the top…
The Houston Texans. Bleeding battle red since 2002.

Like I told you in the email, I feel like we just got a big time Free Agent or something. Welcome aboard, man! I couldnt be happier to have you over here. And I cant wait to see how you cope without swearing. As I also told you, after events like “Rosencopter,” its really hard not to…
Welcome aboard, man.
