...you're in Reno, Nevada at a convention and you're sitting 3 feet away from the 630AM LIVE ESPN Radio booth and strike up a conversation with the DJ's during a break. You tell them you're from Houston:
( These are actual quotes from Don and Todd )
-You're a Cowboy fan, right? ( um, NO! )
-Since Buffalo benched Losman, David Carr is officially the WORST QB in the NFL.
-It was a mistake to put Carr in his first year-he's been sacked so many times, his brains are scrambled.
-Your offensive line is TRULY *offensive*.
-There's no leadership in Houston, from the coaches down to the players.
-It's no *one* person's fault...there's plenty of blame to go around.
-Firing Palmer was the first of many that need to take place.
-David Carr needs to ride the bench for a while to give him a chance to watch a vet do it RIGHT and undo his bad habits, not to mention give his body a chance to heal.
( Though they think he's literally too far gone at this point from all the beatings he has taken. Todd said he was watching film and saw someone actually punch David in the mouth while he was on his back...)
-Poor Andre is the only good thing on that team, and if I were him, I'd be looking for a trade.
-David Carr looks like Rob Johnson out on the field...
-It was a mistake to trade Sharper and Glenn...what were you thinking?
-This is a team that looked good last year at .500 ( at which point I had to remind them that, NO, we finished 7-9 last year ) and should have been pushing for a play off run...
So, being who I am, I went off on a rant about what I see as the problems. Even shared my nicknames for the players. ( Which made them laugh their asses off and really brought them into the conversation. )
Todd asked me if I ever go to the games. I told him I'm a PSL holder- field level- and that I go to EVERY game I'm able to. I won't give up on them, though I feel I have the right to criticize them and expect more BECAUSE I am a season ticket holder...and he agreed.
You KNOW it's bad when you're in Reno, Nevada and you hear the same complaints about your team ( in a state that has NO NFL team ) that you hear at home...**sigh**
