The sick feeling in the pit of your stomach...

Thats what I'm sporting right now.

It's the feeling I got when pujols launched the orbit shot in game 5.

its the feeling podsednik hitting the homer in the WS created.

it's the feeling you get when your team loses a 35-3 lead in the AFC title game.

its the horrible feeling of knowing your team just passed on something they will never be able to see again. twice.

I'm with you.
 
I don't think it's the pick I think it's the Domino's I just ate...lol

Right now to say the very least I feel very dejected.

Now thats just disgusting (and I never thought I'd say this about anything) but so so fitting.

Having the worst record in the league ...I held my head up and chest out as a PROUD TEXAN FAN.

After this ...I'm ashamed! Go figure.
 
Yeah, I felt it, but got over it not long after. When I saw it on ESPN I was a bit suprised but ******* it. What are we going to do? Stop being fans like some of the douches that are coming out of the woodwork? Whatever. It's the draft, you never know who is going to pan out.

It is called cognitive dissonance:

Cognative Dissonance

Once two mutually-exclusive cognitions are held, the individual can be said to be in a state of "cognitive dissonance". For instance: The individual purchases a given brand of washing machine, having been advised by a trusted co-worker that said machine is the best. Subsequent to this purchase, the buyer is exposed to another cognition, one which informs her that there is a higher quality, less expensive washing machine on the market. Moreover, the new source is even more trustworthy than the well-meaning co-worker, e.g. "Consumer Reports" or "Good Housekeeping". Instantly, this conflicting cognition creates an imbalance ("buyer's remorse") between itself and the original cognition. This conflicted state of mind will, necessarily, seek to attain psychological consonance, i.e. a balance between competing cognitions.

Dang TC you're smart for a gal.



NOW.....you guys know how I felt when we took the wrong Johnson last year. That hurt. Cognitive dissonance
suxs. This I understand.
No offers for the one, means no offers. Now Orleans get's the extra picks and we get to be ESPN's punch line tomorrow. Course it is much easier when you don't have a dog in the fight.
 
Well, at least we only spent about $80 million on defensive ends this year. Hell, if that line doesn't absolutely crush each team they play, this will be a total disaster. Fools.

well, lets say that I was looking at a Ferrari enzo and a porsche 911 gt3. im in love with both, but limitations tell me that i have to live with the enzo. ok i say, I can live with that.

the time comes, and I get a Viper.


whats that called? I call it being a Houston sport's fan.
 
Is it the feeling of knowing we just drafted the best player in the draft.most hyped up? yes. best? not at all

And that defense wins championships. teams win championships

And that we already have a pro bowl running back?no, we don't.

Or that Reggie Bush has a world of negative off the field issues no, he doesn't. his parent's do.

Nah, not a Viper. As long as we are doing analogies, you gotta think bigger:

Hard to compare offensive picks to defensive picks.
 
I'll still be rooting for the Texans of course my heart isn't broken by any means, but picking Mario Williams does have a certain Saw Bowie'ish' feel to it...

1. Akeem Olajuwon -- Houston -- Houston
2. Sam Bowie -- Kentucky -- Portland
3. Michael Jordan -- North Carolina -- Chicago
4. Sam Perkins -- North Carolina -- Dallas
5. Charles Barkley -- Auburn -- Philadelphia



Well, maybe Sam Perkinish. ;)

Maybe Mario is the Hakeem pick. A position seen as one that a team needs to have success. Not the most flashy pick in the draft. A position that has longevity. An athletic freak with more room to develop and improve.

And maybe it is New Orleans that picks Bowie.:cool:

It's the feeling I got when they hired Kubiak, NOT when they did the right thing and drafted Williams.

And how much would they have spent on RBs if they would have drafted Bush? This is a bogus argument.
