I've wasted too much time recently responding to people who haven't looked before they leapt into a topic, mostly the AG situation as well as the other releases. It has made me cynical, at least temporarily... I have re-read some of my recent posts, and find that they are beginning to be a little more harsh in cases than I originally intended. Hence, my sarcastic response to Mike's post.
I assume he was exaggerating the character issues that have been associated with a few of our recent acquisitions... and that is another topic that is beginning to set me off... people acting like we are suddenly a team of thugs because Travis Johnson was wrongly accused of rape, wrongly said to have hit a coach at the combine, and because Buchanan is a hot dog who is maybe a little too full of himself....

OzzO
.. and then?
Dude, lay off Vinny! Let the newbies figure me out. 
What do you have MichaelM that says that TJ did not take a swing at the MIN coach? All sources I have seen point to the fact that he did. Care to link me to a source that says otherwise?
And yes, the statement I made was of the
variety, the Texans seem to be "dumping" the over-priced, yet stand out guys (Sharper, Glenn, etc) and going with the younger, more brash variety (Buchanon, TJ, Vernand, etc.). I guess that is the price you pay when you are making a youth movement: with age comes experience in life and on the field, with youth comes the opposite.
Also, I am not of the type that will just say, "CC, DC, BM are the leaders of the team, and they know more about what they are doing than the fans", because I am a passionate fan, too high and too low given the circumstances.....this would be a "too low" moment as I am sure many Texans fans are facing recently with the shake-up within the team.

Here are two links to the same info, but from two different sources...

"...had a bit of an awkward moment with a member of the Minnesota Vikings, as he as he hit everything but his hands during a drill that is purposely suppose to have the defender knock the person's hands down... so while he was very aggressive, a lot of people said he was not disciplined and a little hard-head, as he seemd to get angry with the coach, and accidentally hit him in the face during the drill, since he was so off the mark..."
I have also heard this somewhere else, but can't remember the other source, so I won't try to quote it.
I also believe that I read it on these boards, but don't really want to search for it. These links should suffice.

Same as what I read on the boards last week. Where, I can't remember.
Hehehe@ MikeMc and Vinny. It can be pretty easy to come off as a smart*** behind a computer screen...yet be so different in person.
I see the sarcasm (and sarchasm, this one is more appropriate for this thread) in Mike's post. I for one, really appreciate sarchasm. 
Sarchasm: The gulf between the author of sarcastic wit and the person who doesn't get it.
Post on folks.
