***favorite player thread***

[CT CSTM]

My favorite current players is hard to say since I'm personal friends with several of them,,,I've known Pitts the longest and he's as good of a guy as you can meet. He's done alot for me and my family. I'm probably closest to Charles Spencer, we hunt and fish together, our families have spent holidays at the others houses, our kids play and his better half and my better half are really good friends as well. Another I'm close to in a way is Mario, he's a quiet guy until you get to know him and then he's a plum chatterbox. He's a stand up guy, loves life,loves Houston,loves football and appreciates what he has. Amobi is another great guy, comes from a good family, is well grounded and just loves playing in the NFL. Recently met Andre Johnson, is as he is on TV, soft spoken,humble and just down right nice...

Former players,,,Jamie Sharper and Alfred Malone. Jamie is a fun guy to hang with, he misses the game and still will go to the occassional Texans game. You get to know him and he just is the definition of a real football guy. Alfred Malone is a hilarious guy,,,he can leave you in stitches after hanging out with him for a bit. Got lucky to spend a weekend going up to Dallas with him right before he signed with Green Bay,,,he'll still live in Houston which is a good thing,,,it'd be a shame to lose a great guy like him here in the community.

Oh man, you're quite lucky to get to hang out with these guys and get to know them like that.

Any thoughts on Lance Zierlein's "inside information" that Spencer is overweight and likely done with football?

Ya,,,he aint done! Can't remember the guy up North that is a former NFL O-Lineman. He has a workout facility and specializes in working out OLinemen in the off season. Charles is all ready signed up to go, he's doing it on his own, the Texans aren't making him do it. His weight like anyone elses can fluctuate, he has to weigh in like anyone else but for so long he couldn't work out alot. I do know that when we eat together he watches what he eats and drinks and always knows his weight to the half pound. He works out at home before he goes to Reliant to do his workout and therapy and on weekends and days offs he works out upstairs at home. When he's doing that upstairs and you are downstairs you could swear the whole house is coming down!

It's a toss up between Mario Williams (because he put an ass load of feet in people's mouths this season) and DeMeco Ryans (who is just generally a complete beast). If we wanted to go offensively, I would have to say Andre or Dayne, for different reasons.

[Baga21]

Gotta give it up for DeMeco! Flat out just gets it done.

I really like Winston and what kind of attitude he brings to the line.


Old Skool: Al Smith, C Dishman, B McDowell

[imatexan]

Andre Johnson. He has done the most for this franchise.
A close second is D-Rob! Cant wait to see him play again!

Ah, my favorite Texan to date! Miss him dearly on the roster. I caught alot of crap when he was cut and I rose a big stink on the boards. Tried to get him to come over and sign one of my #55 jerseys in Seattle in '05 but he wouldn't come over...

FAVE player of all time: Who else? Love me some Favre!! You'd have to have a screw loose not to like him, if not just a smidge.

Current Texan: Owen Daniels, he shares my passion for weather and is a darn good player. There are several honorable mentions too.

Be sure to let him know that we're all pulling for him.

his interview on texans tv would suggest otherwise

[SheTexan]

Favorite present TEXAN? Anyone wearing a TEXAN uni and giving their heart and soul to our team! If I wanted to pick out a few standouts amongst them, it would be Kris Brown, Demeco, AJ, and Mario. I'm warming up to OD, kinda like "tight ends", and Kevin Walter. Dunta will always be a fav of any TEXAN fan.

PAST Texans! BILLY MILLER, hands down!!! JJ Moses was FUN to watch, and brought a lot of excitement to the team. Full of heart, but just to darn slow.

Fav past football players! Joe Montana, Steve Young, Jerry Rice, Jim Kelly when he played for the Gamblers, and I followed his career to Buffalo, and of course the infamous great EARL!!! MANY others are rushing through my mind, but, I'll quit while I'm ahead!

He reads the boards,,,

awesome.. i always wondered about that- i know i would all the time if i was a player


anyway my vote is tie between mario and travis although i like everyone really tbh

[mancunian]

My favourite player of all time is Walter Payton, it was he and the Chicago Bears defence that got me into the game. Bears are still my second team.

As for favourite Texan, well its Andre and Demeco, though I have soft spot for Glenn and Sharper.

I wonder how mant of you will say Matt Stevens? (j/k - and I hope he gets better soon).

[PHAROAH]

Andre Johnson is the best in Texans history not including the Houston Oilers we all know that Earl Cambell & Warren Moon are at the top.

[barrett]

it's Duante for me because I've always felt like he had that "loosing isn't ok" attitude when it was bad. and that's what this team is being built upon. winners.

second, Andre Johnson, no question for his humble attitude.
