Are you rooting for Vince Young? - Houston Texans Message Board & Forum

TexanSam · 06-24-2006

Are you? I never cared much for UT football so that doesn't really play into my decision. Even if I was, I would have a hard time rooting for the Titans, even with a Houstonian and an ex-Longhorn being the QB. So I say no. Maybe some of you will root for him when he's not playing the Texans. Some of you probably aren't. I hope he stays healthy and has a terrible career! I'm just not a Titans fan.

hot pickle · 06-25-2006

yes i am rooting for him all the way, but im a huge UT fan.

**mexican_texan** · 06-25-2006

I love UT, and I'm probably going to go there, but I'm rooting for VY to fail miserably. Why? He plays for the enemy...

**Khari** · 06-25-2006

I'm not a UT fan or a Titan fan so I don't really care how he does.......

mike moffat · 06-25-2006

Earl was the best to come out of UT. I like A&M a whole lot more. I really dislike the Titans. Nothing against Young. I.m just not sure how he is going to do in the NFL. Might turn into a running back or wide reciever. QB is another story.

**Double Barrel** · 06-25-2006

No, I'm not rooting for Vince Young. And it has nothing to do with him being a Longhorn or Vince Young (I think he's a great player and a nice guy).

But my attitude of not rooting for him has everything to do with the fact that he's now an enemy of the Houston Texans. How could I possibly root for a Tennessee Titan, under any circumstance?

**gwallaia** · 06-25-2006

I don't like UT and I certainly don't like the Titans. I am not rooting for Vince Young. He will probably be a good QB, but I will never never never cheer for the Titans or any of their players.

RTP2110 · 06-25-2006

Big UT fan, but college is college and pro is pro. I just can't root for a titan.

**mancunian** · 06-25-2006

He plays for the Titans. Need I say more?

**SheTexan** · 06-25-2006

I could care less what college he played for! I hope he eats dirt everytime he puts on a Titan uni!!!

Hulk75 · 06-25-2006

He is a Titan right?...............

MorKnolle · 06-25-2006

I am personally not rooting for him. While I could never really wish serious injury of big-time failure on a player, I am not a UT fan, Vince plays for the Titans, and the couple times I have seen/met Vince in person he was not especially cordial, so I have no reason to root for his success from a football or personal standpoint, althoug I can't say I hope he turns into a colossal failure in this league, except when he plays us.

Hopefully my feeling on him turns out like Brett Favre, he ends up being a good player, I respect him as a player, but I don't like his team and don't particularly like him personally so I don't root for their success, but I still admire their talent.

**edo783** · 06-25-2006

He's a Titan now right?.......then, well NO.

nunusguy · 06-25-2006

Vince ? Vince Young ? Who's that ?

**Trap_Star** · 06-25-2006

A true Texan fan would never root for a Titan...unless they need to defeat the Colts or Jaguars in order for us to clinch a playoff spot....

TexanFan881 · 06-25-2006

I guess I can see the Vince Young fans in college following him and rooting him, but there's no way I will ever root for Vince Young.

CenTexNative · 06-25-2006

While I am a Longhorns fan and a fan of Vince Young and hopes that he does well. I Hope even more that the TEXANS do even better again the titans. why? Because then it would quiet alot of people down on all of the Vince followers.

mapleleaf · 06-25-2006

Oh heck ya. I'm a UT fan, and not only that VY is kinda like my role model, and he's my favorite player. But I am not rooting for his team the Tennessee Titans though.

valleytexfan · 06-25-2006

In a word, no.

Vinnie333 · 06-26-2006

i have been a VY fan for a long time now. I am only going to be rooting for him when he is not playing the texans. However, when he IS playing the texans i hope he has a great game, yet the texans still win.

I actually went to Vince Young's going away party last night at Fox Sports Bar and Grill and had a great experience. Vince took the time to come out of the VIP section and walk amongst us little people. He signed anything and everything that people shoved in his face and was always sporting a smile. I have a newfound respect for him. He showed me how great of a guy he really is. So in short, Yes I am rooting for him.
