SB Nation Houston Launched And Now Reviewed

You may have read something somewhere about a launch party for SB Nation Houston last night. Those of us who attended were fortunate enough to be treated to free drinks and food, and the understatement of the year may well be that it's safe to say a good time was had by all.

It was a blast getting to meet so many people who make BRB the tremendous community it is. Special thanks to chrisd21, Texans-Brocos, Robertpz, Salad, Nuño, Raheel, James Casey, Robert Reid, Kerns, Rivers, and everyone else whose names I can't recall (whiskey, you are a foul temptress) for making it out. Additionally, I really enjoyed getting to meet the minds behind the The Dream Shake and SBNH. Great people all.

The fun of events like last night only underscores the idea that BRB should be doing more of these kinds of meet-ups. If schedules permit, I'd be game for putting together a get-together once the preseason starts. What say the group?  And feel free to leave your impressions of last night's extravaganza in the Comments below.

And Food

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

Now you've gotta help me out Lee

Dave mentioned that you owed me a kick to the nuts for something, and I think it was brought up on site at some point. I have absolutely no idea what I did to earn it, and I did end up dodging it on-site since you took off after we went out separate ways.

So before you launch the leg forward, can I at least know why I’m getting kicked in the nuts? That’s all I ask.

What Was His Excuse?

Though for the record, I think you’re both lame for missing the party.

Count me in

Workload went apeshit this week…ended up working very late both Wed & Thu.

Sorry I missed it….mainly because Jordann owes me beer.

If the Treasury Secretary doesn't have to pay taxes, then why do I?

Sad Part Is That Jordann Could've Paid Up Last Night

Without it costing him a dime.

Thanks Tim!

BTW – Be looking for an email from me and Matt (guy from Sam Adams) concerning next season’s tailgate possibilities. He will probably need some more specifics from you. I am just the pimp trying to bring two beautiful people together so I am just the middle man…

Nice talking sports with everyone last night!
