Say what you want facts are facts
McNair is getting out of the pension plan to save money. Perhaps one of the things that you have said that is actually true. I suspect that it is more of a longtime thing than a short time thing of expenses building up.
The Texans asst coaches are some of the lowest paid in the NFL. Unless you are part of the league office I doubt you can know this for a fact as they are not normally published, so at best it is pure conjecture on your part.
When an impact FA is signed that will be a first. This is what I suspect drives your dislike for McNair. You want the team to pick up some sort of big name FA. If you look back, what FA was ever available that would have dramatically changed the team? Not one that I can think of. If you think spending the money on FA wasn't done, then go check some of the contracts we did. There was more than one that was stupid money given. In fact, it was this chasing of FAs that caused us to get into cap trouble. Our guys are doing exactly the right thing by getting mid level FAs to improve the team while the guys they get through the draft mature. If we were just one killer player away in one position from a superbowl, then MAYBE get the big name guy, but about 70% of the time those are wasted efforts.
I cant wait to see how McNair handles upcoming negociations with OD,Ryans and Mario. First of all McNair doesn't do the negotiations. Secondly, the offers that have been reported as being on the table are of top tier money, like in the top 5 for their position, so we are putting top level offers out and not short changing or low balling anyone.
If past history says anything it wont be pretty. What past history? Every negotiation until Dunta has been without any fuss what so ever and Dunta has an offer on the table far above his actual play value whether he choses to stay in Houston is his call, not because we are lowballing him.
Look we all want the same thing the Texans to be winners. You have to spend money on players to be an upper echelon franchise on the field. The fans have done their part, now it's time for McNair to step up and not just talk about being a winner but put his money where his mouth is. By this I assume you mean buying FAs. I'm guessing that little ol thing called a cap has escaped your notice. The team has historically spent all of the cap money available (for several years they even spent some from the years to come), so I'm not sure exactly where you get the idea the money isn't being spent, because it all is.
I respect your opinion and would love to have 700 mil to buy a franchise. The best rebuttal that you can come up with is when you spend 700 mil on a team then you can have an opinion. Come On you can do better than that.
As far as the name calling I have been called far worse and like I said you are entitled to your opinion but to resort to name calling shows a lack of intellegence IMO. Show some class. This may be hard for you but you may find it to be an enlightening experience. Yup your right, I shouldn't have said Numbnut, but when someone keeps saying the same wrong thing when the facts have been given to them, what would you think of that person?
As far as being ungrateful I will be grateful when THE HOUSTON TEXANS ARE SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS. So you will only be grateful if you get a Superbowl. Yup, that's being grateful.
Everybody as different opinions, respect is the key.
KOOLAID ANYBODY
