My original posts are the arguments rendered invalid by today's performance.
Those sentiments are not my own, hence the quotation marks.

Bill Cowher wants this job. He's waiting for it. The real question is, is he really ready to return to coaching? He just lost his wife a few months ago. That's not something a person gets over right away. He may not be ready to coach again.

But if he is, he is coming to Houston. Bet on it.

I hope Bob McNair hands the reigns of the team to his son Cal. That guy can't be worse can he? McNair is a cheap mofo and I hope he sees that the fans in this town are pissed off beyond belief so that he can open the warchest he has made off the loyal fans in this town and hire a proven winner like Cowher.

He was being totally sarcastic and mocking Gary's kids.

I guess everyone's sarcasm radar is on the blink today.

Oh for Gods sakes. McNair is a lot of things, but he isn't cheap. I really wish people would quit saying this, because it just isn't true. He sunk nearly a billion of his own money so far into the Texans, so that isn't being cheap, or even close to it.

And that was NOT an endorsement of him as the owner, just sayin.......

Agree. Bob McNair is anything but cheap. If Kubiak told McNair that every player needed gold-plated helmets at a million dollars each, McNair would say: "Ok."

McNair ain't cheap.

Really he isn't cheap? Name me the big money free agents, proven NFL wining coaches and front office personnel Bob has hired or signed........

The answer is NONE.

[gwallaia]

Does anyone have Bob's email address?

The only thing that can counter this: It has been stated by numerous individulas that McNair admits he doesnt know much about the ins n outs of the NFl. he depends on his people......that would be whom again?

I guess we'll find out the answer to this one. I think I'll come out on one side or the other when the next coach is hired. There's no reason not to go big name this time around.

Did you even READ what I posted? Look, I'm not saying McNair is a good owner, he's proven otherwise I think. But he isn't cheap. He sank a lot of money into purchasing (bribeing) his way in the fold with the other owners and put some of his own money into the stadium. He isn't ****ing cheap.

He may not be a good owner, but he certainly isn't cheap. If you want to blame a lack of signing free agents, blame Rick Smith and Kubiak for for that, not McNair.

[TexanExile]

Cheap isn't what I think of with McNair, either. Naive seems to fit better.

He was willing to open the checkbook for free agents like Morlon Greenwood and Todd Wade and Anthony Weaver and *shudder* P-Burnt. These aren't huge names but they were seriously overpaid to come here. So I don't know that cheap's the right word for it.

Atlanta had a back-up qb named Matt Schaub. EVERYBODY was after this guy. EVERYBODY. The Texans swooped in, and grabbed him immediately, signing him to a contract over like a weekend. And the Texans were aggressive, and they spent a lot of money.

No, we don't, traditionally go after the overall "big names" in free agency, but, we have made moves in the past.

[Mr teX]

yeah, a guy who sank 700 million into an nfl franchis is cheap.....good luck convincing anyone with that.

Funny & ironic really b/c we're down here complaining about an owner who's hands off yet right up in Dallas in the same state, their fans are complaining about an owner who's too hands on...The reality of it is texans don't know what the hell they want.

[HTown2ATX]

I am so effing pissed. I just got off of the phone with my dad in Houston who is from Pittsburgh and is obviouldy a die hard Steelers fan but also likes the Texans and had liked the Oilers (my family has been here since 1980 when I was born).

My phone blew up with people trying to call me after the miracel play of the century and his is the only one I called back on.

After I got through the whole part of him trying to convert me to be a Steelers fan which he usually pitches at me after every loss....he and I agreed on something....the coaching here blows c**k.

How does a team like the Steelers find coach, after Super Bowl winning coach (Chuck Noll, Cowher, Tomlin) and we keep ending up with effing bumblers and guys that re-inact a bad inpersonation of Inspector Cleauso from the Pink Panther (with Peter Sellers...not the new crappy ones)???

Serioulsy???

W-T-F???????

Yes that was a freak play that beat us against JAX today, but that was only the end result of what had been some dumb-effing-assed coaching leading up to that. I took notes to post something while sober and bored at work tomorrow (too drunk too read those notes right now and I don't have time or tiVo to re-watch it....not that I would want to...).



Done with Kubes.

(if I mispelled something then too damn bad.....too many Shiners and pissed right now...)
