Another thing, I have never made millions but more than once I had to take another job at a very reduced income. I did not like it one bit. I think the ego gets involved at whatever the income level is.

I think there is a huge difference in one of us regular joe's taking a pay cut and a former 1st pick of the draft before the rookie cap taking one. Mario was signed for 6 years @ $54 million in 2006. Any pay cut on his next contract would be an awesome gesture by Mario but not one that is going to cause him to have to rebudget his finances to pay his electric bill. Anyone that has earned $54 million in 6 years should be set for life already. I know some go bankrupt but that is all on them for being stupid with their money.

Heya,

I'm a Brit and the 610 radio stream doesn't work over here!

Don't suppose anyone has an alternative link for it?

Cheers

If you have facebook, you could "like" the Houston Texans, they sometimes post links to podcasts that might interest you.

[False Start]

So, what hard issues will they discuss today? Maybe the field? Or maybe what they serve in the cafeteria?

[IDEXAN]

Will they put this on their "podcasts" ?

1:00 Wade

Wade: Kareem had a good year.
He did his part (in the defense).

[76Texan]

Wade on JJ Watt:
He's a star in the making, if he's not (a star) already.
I haven't seen anybody play that well since Howie Long (as a rookie.)

Man, that's a great compliment.

[76Texan]

Wade realized that the Texans were "fortunate" that Reed and Barwin were able to play a lot of snaps last year.

Sounds to me like the Texans will look for another pass rusher either in FA or the draft, which is probably a give-me assumption.

That's about it.

I might even say Reggie White. Yes, I mean that.

Dude is going to be unstoppable in 2012. If he did what he did in his rookie year, then the game slows down for him in Year 2...he knows what to expect, he's even been in two playoff games already. He's a veteran in all senses.

I have never seen a d-lineman jump in the air and intercept a pass in the split-second adjustment that JJ Watt did. It was other-worldly. Period. I think that was THE defining play for him...sky is the limit and he knows it now, even though I think he knew it all along anyways.

It's everything about him. His impact on his college campus, fellow students would say one half of his statement to him and he'd state the other half back to them. His on-the-field talent. Natural in front of the camera. Larger than life persona. Young. Everything. If I was Nike or Reebok or whatever, I'd have JJ Watt endorsing my stuff.

Spot on post GP. I LUVS me some JJ Watt. I see a gold jacket in his future. I really believe that.

And correct me if I'm wrong but his playoffs stats read something like 6 sacks and a TD in two playoff games right?

Spot on. He's got to be like a really big gnat to the QB/RB...he just wont go away. He's like that nightmare that won't go away everytime you close your eyes...or in this case everytime they open theirs. Something special in this kid. It's only one year...but rookies just don't have that kind of year at that position. Long live JJ "Nightmare" Watt, it time to go night night!

[SCOTTexans]
