So, not only was I at the game in 2006, but, starved for Texan info, I read pretty much everything. So, I'm reading Solomon's blog on Chron.com and I encounter this baffoon!:
"When the Texans had a chance to draft Vince Young they had a chance to draft an actual "Houston Texan." But they didnt. Their name is a sham and a disgrace, and I will always root for the real Houston Texan over a fake "hometown" team called the Houston Texans. The VY love will never go away, and we'll never leave town, and we'll never shut up and it will ALWAYS matter when he comes back to town. " Posted by: Travis at November 19, 2009 09:48 PM This is why I will heckle, mercilessly, everyone wearing a #10 jersey until they show me their Tennessee drivers' license. Man, I am fired up for this game! If we still had Ephraim Salaam at LT, I would strongly encourage Kubiak to suit me up this week... Alas... we are too freakin' talented, and I have some false starts to cause. Because of former Chief and DENVER BRONCO Neil Smith, I can't do it on the field... But, by God, I can do it in the stands!!!! |

3 wins over subpar not elite teams...and they didn't win because of him...too much hype...besides, hate is a strong word.

Monday night is uncharted territory. I always get amped for EVERY Texans game... throw in that it's a game against the Titans - I'll be even more amped... but that's nothing unusual. I hate the Titans with burning passion that could light ten thousand suns... so to put this game on a Monday Night - Texans vs. Titans - on Monday night!!! For the FIRST TIME!?!?! I have no idea how I'm going to react... there will be lots of screaming. Oh - and on top of all that - throw into the fire the fact that we have a chance to avenge the 2006 OT run by Me-Y against Me-Y himself... My blood pressure is going to be through the roof. |

Pretty sure you were my favorite poster before this post, but this one pretty much locked it up.

Sorry, but VY is still a hero to me. His entire senior year at Texas, including the national championship, justifies the admiration.
That said, he would've been a horrible fit for this team, and the fanboys who think otherwise sound desperately lame. I know a couple of them here in Austin. Normally, they are very intelligent people until they get to this topic. Their belief is 10% logic and 90% dogma. Meanwhile, Schaub puts up Peyton Manning numbers. |

Being a Longhorn I love VY, even have a picture or two in my home of that special touchdown. With that said he is the ENEMY - nuff said.

Hate a guy because some guy made a comment on some guy's blog.
Here we freakin' go again, this is the biggest game in Texans history. BTW, has anyone kept a tally of how we are doing in these biggest game in Texans history showdowns? If we don't win some folks are going to burn this mutha down.

I'm also one of those that wanted VY drafted to the Texans, but I have seen the error of my ways. Let the Tacks deal with with the schizoid man, we have Mario instead.

only thing that makes this game remotely bigger is it being on national tv. one of their players tried some weak smack talk to try and amp up the game...may work in college Bulluck, but if you were that tough, you wouldn't be the suck that you are.
this game is against: -a team that is the doormat of the league. -a team last in its own division -a team that has a qb who is statistically in the bottom 20% in the league -a team we have beaten twice in a row -a team whose pass defense is worse than all in the league save for the Lions. -a team whose coach is probably in his last season we can all try and make it more than it is, but I would be more excited playing a more worthy opponent. I see the Texans winning this one rather easily.

For all you UT fans: aren't you embarrassed at the lengths that Mack Brown goes to in order to avoid competition? Four out of conference games and the toughest opponent was New Mexico! And, he's going to be rewarded for it! Man, college football is such a joke! |

High School rival? Check.
Collegiate rival? Check. Professional rival? Check. Yeah, I hate VY (as a player of course, not as a person). I hate the crap VY fanboi spewed when the Texans didn't draft him (and thank God they didn't because he was not worth a top 10 pick let alone a #1). I hate his punk ass for yelling "this is my house!".. Wass ma name??

Really... you hate someone you do not know? He do something bad to you or your family... I just cant get it.. I mean isn't there something more meaningful in life than worrying about a guy who plays a game and that has no bearing on anything concrete?
Maybe it's me, but man, there are way too many people who get upset or angered over something very minor for what ever reason... |

I don't hate VY. I can't stand fans that are so far up his can. I understand UT alums adoration for him. I understand Madison Marlin alums loving him. But give me a ph***ing break about not taking him in 06. Get over it. Better yet, don't get over it. Keep on sounding like a sad pathetic love sick schoolgirl who didn't get thier cherry popped by the teams QB even after it was clear that he was not really all that special.
