Battle Red Blog, a Houston Texans community

Set to be in town Wednesday

Pretty sweet deal. My friend gave me the heads up on this event. Some of the Texans Cheerleaders will be there as well. Thought it'd be cool to go to before the Pre-BRBPALOOZA Event in Austin!

A comprehensive preview of the Texans' off-season outlook.

From Gary Kubiak's post-game press conference: "...Kasey (Studdard) did have surgery on Friday, yesterday. I talked to him after surgery. He’s doing well. Matter fact I think he actually came home this evening. I’ll find out when I leave here. Actually Kasey’s gonna, it looks like he will not play this year. I don’t know. We’ll see, but he did have surgery and he’s well on his way to recovery." If Studdard does get stashed then a door of opportunity opens for Shelley Smith and the rest of the young guards. UPDATE: Per CBSSports Rapid Reports, Houston will decide Studdard's fate on Monday.

You know something? I'm kind of getting tired of talking about Schroedinger's Lockout and making myself crazy with which free agents we'll be able to sign once the season begins. I do not feel like parroting on about lockout talks stalling out because Roger Goodell couldn't attend negotiations due to a particularly painful bunion on his big toe. So instead, here's an article by Alan Burge of the Examiner on an issue that will have a far more profound impact on all of us: tailgating.

The news from Pro Football Weekly isn't much of a shock, but it looks like the Texans will attempt to retain their two key free agents on the offensive side of the ball. Whether they'll receive more lucrative offers from other teams is another story altogether. A little throwaway line at the end also foreshadows the uphill battle Trindon Holliday could face to make the team if there is a preseason and training camp. I'm going to place my bet on practice squad at best.

Once a starting Running Back for the Texans. Now an UFL Running Back. Nice to see him still playing pro football, in his home town no less. Interesting quote "Lobbied to join the Omaha Nighthawks during a live radio interview on Nebraska sports talk station KOZN".
