Likely. How many are aware the Texans have minority owners? You never hear about them. (I'm pretty sure CnnnD knows).

Alice, no more Mr. Nice GuyI have no idea of the validity of the above article, but the optics are certainly entertaining.
According to the Houston Texans themselves, Cal attends meetings, as well. I have found pictures of him at NFL owners meetings. I have not seen one of Janice attending, but she might be shy about pictures.
"McNair regularly attends NFL meetings as part of team management, chairs the NFL Audit Committee and serves on the NFL Investment Committee."
I found two sources that said she represented the Texans at NFL functions including owners meetings, but both sources could be coming from something McClain wrote back in 2019

Heard LZ tell a great story today about this degenerate today. Goes like this:
Brandon Cooks told Jack Easterby that Lovie's staff was working the receivers too hard.
Easterby had a conversation about this with Lovie. "The receivers are telling me that you're working them too hard."
Lovie went and had a conversation with Cal (probably Hannah.) Something to the effect of "he's trying to mess with football operations. I was told he wouldn't try to interfere with my job."
Then Cal (probably Hannah) had a conversation with Jack. Something to the effect of "We told you not to interfere with football again. Hit the bricks."
Then Brandon asked for a trade.

Here's the interview from today:
What a mess. If what LZ says about Easterby and BOB setting Gaine up so they could get him fired. That is so wrong on so many levels. To destroy a man's reputation in their power grab to control the franchise. That is some Littlefinger type stuff here.

I liked Brian Gaine, all the accusations were strange at the time. Bill brought him in and then stuck a knife in his back as soon as he leaned over to sign his contract.

Gaine got a raw deal. Didn’t follow OB’s outrageous demands (which we saw come to fruition in the form of ridiculous trades/contracts after Gaine was fired).
Texans would not have become the dumpster fire it did if Gaine had remained GM. They may have been Jeff Fisher 7-9 to 9-7 purgatory but not the complete flop we have seen since the Chiefs playoff game.
What did it say?

This is the Texans that Cal McNair has made. O’Brien and Easterby hated Gaine. That is why they fired him the day after Easterby returned from Boston after spending an evening talking to Nick Caserio about becoming the Texans next GM.

The plan was already in motion by that time. Gaine had already fired the people Easterby wanted him to.
Easterby went there knowing Caserio was interested. It was for show so Easterby to say “look what I delivered Cal.”
Hell - Easterby probably wanted the tampering charges so that him and OB could have power.
The telling part is how Easterby fell out of favor and Hannah was assuming power. Lovie got Easterby fired. Only because Hannah had the balls to do it.

It was saying Lovie Smith was the reason why Jack the Ripper was fired. Cooks was complaining about the way Lovie was working them and reported it to Jack. Lovie went to the McNair’s saying, he’s back at it again and I want him out of here.What did it say?
We knew Cooks was a little biatch from his tantrum after Easterby was fired. What we didn't know was he was like this all along. Can't wait to see Cooks kicked out of here.

Yeah we don't need a diva cancer like that in the locker room.

That explains all the trades in his career. There's nothing worse than a snitch. I'm hoping he never gets traded and gets buried in the roster.
His attitude and locker room lawyering might be one of the reasons he's been traded so many times.

If it’s not true, what does it say about LZ?

He's in the media.. so if it's not true, business as usual. The media doesn't care about truth or not..
Having said that.. I think this is

Unlike most in media, LZ has a pretty good reputation built up over a very long period of time. His dad was an NFL OL coach for many years. I think he's buds with the Colts GM. Dude has connections with GMs, coaches, agents. I'll take his word over just about anybody in the business.
If Jack isn't the chaplain, we know he's angling for the job.
