PrintYou know you're going to be watching your Houston Texans take on the Arizona Cardinals on Saturday night. Why not do it with faceless internet ne'er-do-wells other Texans fans?
Come on out to Cheerz Bar & Grill (located at 2416 Bagby, Houston, TX 77002; right around the corner from Tipsy Clover) tomorrow night for a watch party starting at 7 p.m. CST which, coincidentally, is when the Texans kick off their 2010 preseason schedule. You'll enjoy Texans football with like-minded people, not to mention good food, drink specials ($2.00 domestic drafts/$3.00 domestic bottles/$4.00 wells), and Rivers McCown explaining cold fusion.
It's looking like we're going to have a good crowd, and more people could result in better specials down the road for other games. So bring yourself and bring your friends. If you haven't already mailed in your RSVP via the Comments in an earlier post, do it in the Comments to this post. Hope to see a bunch of you out there.

Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...
Cr@p
Thanks to my current work-related meltdown, I am now a maybe. I also need to figure out a place to crash, which I haven’t done yet, because I thought the fam was coming.
A Texans fan. Really. No, I'm not kidding.

So....
Maybe get off the blogs and get your shit done so that you can make it. Bitch.
If the Treasury Secretary doesn't have to pay taxes, then why do I?
Damn

Quick math exercise
So….being 100% more certain that the previous 37% means that we are now 74% certain about the venue?

Freaking Engineers
Just make the numbers work and show up at Cheerz tomorrow night.

Might have to count me out
Financial reasons (i.e. bills bled my bank account nearly dry, cousins low on money as well)
I would challenge you to a battle of wits, but you appear to be unarmed.

Who the hell are the Astros?
Are they that minor league team that plays in that stadium near Downtown?

At least the Dynamo have won championships, unlike that minor league team that plays next door to the GRB Convention Center

Sorry, all
Not going to be able to make it tonight. It’s hard enough to drive down to Houston from Austin, but I now have to be back here first thing in the morning to pick up a friend from the airport. Drink beers for me.
A Texans fan. Really. No, I'm not kidding.

hmmmpf....
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
Are you going?
Didn’t see yo on the list.
Plus, I think Shake’s now going to kick my ass. Luckily, even I can outrun him.

You sure talked a big game last week....
/rubs it in

Oh! I was there....
A fight reportedly almost broke out and someone, a BRBer witnessed it. Okay, it was WhiskeyR who was on the spot. Anyways, he came over to the table to introduce himself and Shake shakes his hand and says that he is Shake and this guy next to me is Rip. Whiskey’s mouth opens and he says to Shake, “I thought you were Rip! You’re the guy that started that fight!” ….Man! All hell almost broke loose with that remark……..almost had to restrain the little guy.
I’m kidding of course, about having to restrain anyone. The rest of the story is pretty much how it happened. But, really, I have no idea about the almost-confrontation. Shake will have to explain that. He doesn’t seem like a fighter at all.
All in all, it was a nice night. The first and second teams looked pretty good. The fourth quarter, which really means nothing, was forgettable. All the guys I met are great guys and I am glad I went to meet them.
I spilled Shake’s St. Arnold Amber pint and he ended up cashing in his beer chip that I owed him. It worked out good.
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
Enjoyed It Thoroughly As Well
Great getting to meet those that I hadn’t met, and it’s always cool seeing those I’ve met before.
Thanks to everyone who came out to watch the game.

Word of advice to all Cheerz patrons
1. If the bartender seems functionally retarded like a douchebag, he probably is.
2. If you get hungry and decide to order a nice lamb GYRO, make sure to pronounce it as though it is spelled phonetically. If you accidentally pronounce it correctly, then you will be informed 45 minutes later (only after you ask the status of said food order for the 2nd time) that the bartender did not understand what a fuckin EURO is. And thus, your food order was simply ignored with no attempt to ask “Wait, what is it you would like to order?”.
But really it’sall my fault. They had this exact situation covered in a disclaimer on the bottom of the menu.
**FYI — plenty of good draft beer on tap and a nice clean place. Just don’t order the gyro.

and now you know the rest of the story....
I thought I heard someone yelling “Gyro! Gyro! I ordered a Gyro! G-Y-R-O! Gyro! And, try to figure out the register so I don’t have to wait 5 minutes to get change!”
I suppose if all of the stars, moons and planets align it could be possible, but what are the chances of that?
