  1. Ben Afflecks best work. If you ever had the misfortune of playing me in pool, you’d eventually hear me say “you should be glad I let you play at my table.”
  2. This documentary, which is extremely well directed and shot, tells a true story about a set of twins, one who loses his memory, and the other who must bring him back into his old life by filling in the details and walking him through who he was. It is immensely fascinating. It contains some heavy material, so be in the mood for a serious documentary, but the two brothers do all the talking themselves, and the director turns in a very powerful end product that can’t be denied.
  3. Never heard of this fucking guy either. Both of our signees graded out as 55s last year at PFF in limited time played.
  4. Rams cut Gurley today so if we really wanted to spend on a RB we could’ve had a much better one. Dont know what the market is for him so he may be out of our price range but still
  5. He was RB11 in 2019 before he got hurt, and has been running behind a bad line for years. And despite fucking over fantasy owners, people kept taking him because he’s got great athletic gifts and fantasy people love talent/potential. Not saying he’s great but trying to say he’s bad is also untrue. Texans will overpay for him, especially considering we could’ve waited for him to get cut and then sign him, but there are two conversations being had here - how bad of a trade this was for the Texans, and is DJ weak and slow and can only catch.
  6. He was taken in the top 5 of every fantasy draft for the past several years. He's not just some pass catcher who’s slow and weak.
  7. The trade is going to go through and he’s going to get his contract whether he tweets that or not.
  8. I don’t know, if someone said to him that you’re like Aaron Hernandez or some shit like that, you can just not tweet at all. He went out of his way to tweet that this is being made bigger than it is, and he respects the Coach. Could’ve just said hey thanks Houston no hard feelings etc, left out the I respect coach part, etc
  9. But seriously our coach is a dumbass shitheel. Fire him
  10. Even if this were as bad as it appears, DeAndre is a classy guy and he would probably say something classy like this. But, I think him bothering to tweet about it being blown way out of proportion at all probably says a lot.
  11. So Texans draft needs?: Edge rusher at LB WR OT NT DB
  12. I was fine with letting Clowney go. He’s a heck of a player but for the price he will demand in his contract, and his health issues and how he checks out mentally so often, he just isn’t worth paying the price that he will demand. I think he’s a bad ass but just my opinion. Hopkins trade obvi a head scratcher but I’m generally opposed to mega-contracts unless it’s a great QB or a JJ Watt/ LT/Champ Bailey total game changer type, so I’m OK with not keeping him around considering his next contract will be worth a gold mine. The headline of this entire thing is how little we got back for him and how incompetent our management is. Going to miss Hop, but he’s the only wide receiver that could be considered elite that doesn’t get double covered because he’s not fast enough.
  13. FUCK! Had great tix to the Dell Matchplay.
  14. The Texans got three compensatory picks for the draft - a 3rd rounder and two 7th rounders. Draft picks now as follows by round: 2,3,4,4,5,7,7,7 A good GM can turn that into solid depth and grab a starter or two. Hopefully we hire one.
  15. I’m interested in that black turtleneck.
  16. Cornelius has a serious Jekyll/Hyde issue. Looks like he should be on an NFL camp roster sometimes, looks like he is a fan who won the ‘play QB’ at other times. Like his game but he’s fucking this up.
  17. Crowds keep growing, guys keep scoring and winning. Fun brand of ball. Also, Bud Light Seltzer is OK but Black Cherry is the undisputed King of artificial flavors.
