Bleach Social: Where Are You Watching Texans-Colts?
Last year, we started a weekly in-season feature that gave Texans fans the chance to share where they were watching that week's Texans game or, if they were looking for a place to watch the Texans, the chance to ask where others were watching the game. The inspiration for this idea came from the occasional FanPost like this one. In the interest of continuity, let's go back to the well, shall we?
Looking to see where your fellow Woodlands residents are watching the Texans on Sunday?
New sports bar opening in your neighborhood we should know about?
Got a good spot in Amarillo staked out and want to let Texans fans know?
Going to be in Chicago for the weekend and need to find a substitute venue?
Want to find out who you should be looking for at Reliant?
Interested in meeting up with fellow BRBers at 360?
Care to share the location of an illicit opium den with a projection screen and Sunday Ticket in Mumbai?
Pose those queries, or dispense valuable knowledge to those who seek it, in the Comments below.

I'll be watching from right at the La Casa
With a cold Brew in my hand and the computer open so I can fire away at the comments on the open thread.
Unfortunately
I’ll be watching it at home. Last year I went to the game. It won’t be as much fun, but as long as we win and the defense dominates, I’ll get over it. :)

With syrup.
Most likely from the house
Unless someone wants to give away tickets:P
So far, I haven’t found a local place that would be a really fun watch. I have a decent sized HD TV so all is good.
Mario Williams will have 4 sacks and 1 int by Game 4 of the regular season.
At home :(

In Indy
I’m actually heading to Indianapolis for a conference this week, so I made sure I got on a flight that would get me there for gametime, not wanting to chance having to get to the airport here in DC after the game. So I’ll get to find out what being a Texans fan watching a game in Indianapolis is like. I’m not too worried, though. It’s not like I’m going to Philly.
More than likely at my house
If unlucky, it will be bits and pieces on the radio.

Iraq...boooooo
I am deployed to Iraq right now. No where for me to watch the game around here. I have internet but the games aren’t streamed. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.
I am so excited about this season, I hate to miss the games. Because of the “uncertain” future over here right now, I could miss a month or two or the entire season. No way to know for sure yet.
Here is a place that has worked well for me
http://www.firstrowsports.eu/sport/american-football.html
They probably don’t have Sunday’s games listed yet, with all of the college ones going on. Just check it later today or early tomorrow.

Another place to find streams
There’s usually links to a bunch of streams for American football. You may have to download some software to use some of the streams, but it’s not spyware or anything. This website saved my life in college, because i did not want to watch Redskins games at all.
Yea that's what I've always used

I’ll be spending my time watching (and screaming at) the Texans game at the Spot in Seattle. Unfortunately (well…maybe fortunately), I will have to leave before the Seahawks game starts because my friend’s kid has a birthday party and her parents chose the real opening day of football to host it.
Honestly, I’m thinking of reporting them to child services for this travesty.

Here in Arkansas
People have the obnoxious habit of scheduling all sorts of shit between noon and 5 on Sundays during the fall. Starting two years ago, I just announced to everyone up front that I would not be attending any of those things, regardless of what it was. Which is how I missed my wife’s grandpa’s 90th birthday party. Priorities, motherfuckers!

It did not go over extremely well, BUT...
