http://houstontexans.com/index.asp its going down now...one thing that stands out so far is how he characterized Spencer's injury....I think we can stop expecting him to play this year.

[Carr Bombed]

Well it doesn't sound like Spencer will play this year. Thats sad, basically he will be a 3 year old rookie.

[SheTexan]

Might seem trivial, BUT, sure was a nice smile on his face when he was responding to the question about the fans. NO doubt about it, the team LOVES a loud stadium!! I say we make the Chiefs go home with hearing loss!

sounds like he will play again though. maybe we get a franchise lt tackle to go along with our draft picks next year. this team is on the rise and they will be good for a long time.

quickie presser....already over. did anyone get the full list of cuts?

Thomas Johnson, Charlie Adams, Ben Steele, Van Pelt...there were a couple of more.

What caught my attention was his comments about Schaub's understanding of the game and certain situations. He alluded to the fact that in the past (my guess referring to Carr) he's had to emphasize not to do certain things, etc. But with Schaub, he trusts him to make the right decision. Certainly an eye opener for me.

Yeah, did your hear him say that it was even tough for our own offense to hear?

That's the thing that other cities's fans do much better at. They STFU when the offense in the field.

Bummer about Spencer. Luckily there's a few good prospects in next year's draft. Probably too early, but I'll start the draft Barry Richardson bandwagon.

And of course that's wise to eliminate those expectations right now if there's
0 chance of his return happening this year. We can "perhaps" hope for next year, but we now know the reality for this year.

Yes, I did notice that remark, and I agree that our fans seem to be oblivious to that simple rule. Beats the hell out of me too, when you have an entire section waving their arms for fans to STFU, and they keep on yelling. What to do?? I have no idea.

[Honoring Earl 34]

I noticed Schaub covering the earholes of his helmet , that's when I realized it was to loud .

I guess the Texans need to give out shhh signs before the game . That way the fans that understand can help those that don't .

Sorry Marcus but STFU looks to much like a university for our Aggie friends .

Convince Kubiak to continue to say something. Kubiak dropped a subtle hint, but I imagine it went flying right over John McClain's head.

You, and TC, and everyone else needs to get on McClain's blog, and Justice's blog and whoever else, and get the word out to

STFU while our own offense is trying to execute a play.

Can anyone help me with this? I'm serious.

[GuerillaBlack]

And we need to send it to KHOU, ABC 13, and all other local channels. During the sports segments, they need to say it and get the word out.

[gg no re]

STFU = Shhhhhhhhh (except with malicious intent)

DOnt make noise when the offense is out. It messes with them. Only make noise when the opponents are on offense.

Well, if the moderators would allow me to spell it out for them, I'd be more than happy to do that.

Or get the folks at Reliant to put the words, "Be quiet while out offense is on the field" on those computerized signs they have all over the place."

I mean . . . jeeeze.

I'll certainly do that! Maybe we can put our pretty cheerleaders to good use, give them some signs to hold up telling fans to REMAIN QUIET, OFFENSE ON FIELD! 3/4 of the stadium are guys who spend most of their time gawking at them anyway. Maybe they'll get the message that way! lol

Last year they tried the jumbothron, but that didn't work. I'm telling you, get the cheerleaders involved, that will work! I know just who to contact also!!
