  1. With all the injuries the Texans have on their roster, it's going to be a hard time for them to overcome the Falcons this Sunday. Now they saying Mathis probably won't play either, cause of his leg. Who's Big Bad Schaub go-to-guy now? Andre Davis? Kevin Walter? David Anderson? Owen Daniels? Jeb Putizer? Looks shaking to me.

    Do Texans still have runningbacks? Ahman Green is out! Samkon Gado? Ron Dayne? He's playing with bruise ribs.

    The defense better play like their in the Super Bowl already, if not, 2-2 they will go!

  2. Is it possible for you to go BACK to Vegas now Mr. Fairweather ?

    I really didn't say nothing bad about the Texans. I just said they played good, but room for improvement. They better figure it out quick before they play the Panthers.

  3. What's up, peeps?! I'm back from a long vacation in Las Vegas. Very nice town, but would never live there.

    I seen the Texans game against Chiefs and I must say they look good, but the Chiefs look like crap themselves. You have to ask yourselves. Did the Chiefs played a up to up game against the Texans? My answer, No. Now Cowboys and Giants game was up to up. I've seen a lot of holes in the offense that should be fix immediately, are they will not score against a well prepared team like Panthers and Colts.

    Sunday's game against the Panthers will be the Texans first real challenge in the season. This will predict can the Texans win big games, or not.

    So fans don't cash in your playoff tickets just yet.

    Oh, by the way. The Texans just signed SS Will Demps from the Giants.

  4. Yes, it sucks. But hey, that's football. I think that Wail Lundy is on his way out, and they already talk to DL Travis Johnson about getting his act together are he will be shipping out.

    So far, the top three RB's are; Ahman Green, Ron Dayne and Samkon Gado.

  5. RB Chris Taylor is out for season with a knee injury, and Wali Lundy suffering from a sore back. The Texans announced that they're bringing in veteran RB's Quentin Griffin, Patrick Pass and resigning Darius Walker to the squad.

  6. The Texans just signed former A&M Aggie, Bethel Johnson to the already tight receiver corps. Johnson struggled to develop himself as an offensive threat with the Patriots, though, and was traded to New Orleans in 2006. He was cut by the Saints before the regular season started. Johnson spent last season with the Vikings.

    Johnson signed a one-year deal with the Eagles in March, but was released in June.

    I just hope he contribute something this year as a Texan.

  7. If Wal Mart wants to make a splash in a new market, the area of Little York and the Eastex would seem to fit the bill... a good mix of middle income and lower income folks who don't have any other viable shopping options within five miles or so.

    But, yeah, the addition of Wal Mart will certainly inject some life into the Northline area. All that said, even without Wal Mart, Northline is essentially going to be the next in line of redeveloped malls into outdoor shopping districts, like Gulfgate and Meyerland before it. I'd expect Northwest Mall to go that route, too.

    There also will be a Wal-Mart going up where the Flea Market is today off of Little York and Eastex!

  8. once again, the key to the next successful movie theatre is who can get the SW Houston market between 2234 to Almeda Road as there's no theatre nearby in those areas

    Pearland is the closest but outside of that it's a 15-minute drive at least to the nearest theatre for my old area.....we lost Cinema 6 in Mo. City as other theatres popped up with better amenities and Meyer Park is gone also....

    they may need to do one of those zip code surveys to see where most of that area is attending movies...

    Magic Johnson's Theatre wasn't bad to attend....nothing but youngsters hung out there but it was decent...I wonder why he's not reopening it as there's a big void on I-45 until Loews in Spring I think....all that does is push the moviegoers to Tinseltown on 290, AMC in Willowbrook or AMC in Humble

    Correction. They pushing moviegoers to Tinseltown on I-10 east, AMC in Willowbrook and Humble.

    For me, I always go to AMC in Humble, but I was surprised they closed down Magic Johnson last month.

  9. Let's assume it happens.

    How does this affect East Downtown and the Near East End.

    You would begin encroaching upon 150-175 sports dates in that area per year (MLS, MLB, NBA, high school football, college basketball, college baseball). Youve got a convention center and hotel. A new park. Concerts that go with the 3 sports venues.

    Is it enough for entrepeneurs in the city to look at that area and say...this is the perfect area for a restaurant or casual/sports bar. Seems like this area of town would be perfect for a casual entertainment and dining district to develop.

    ^^^ Actually, it will be 4 facilties for a concert in Downtown. New soccer stadium, MMP, Toyota Center and House of Blues (Houston Pavilions).

  10. 1 piece out of about 15 they need.

    Kubiak really saying, "don't expect playoffs this year fans."

    And what I'm saying, "if they don't hit 8-8 or better this year somebodies job is on the line."

  11. Gary Kubiak in the April 9, 2007 issue of Sports Illustrated demonstrated a non-rantish frankness about the Texans playoff chances that isn't often seen in coaching ranks:

    "Our supporting cast isn't good enough right now, and we're not going to put everything on [quarterback] Matt [schaub]. We feel good about our recent drafts and our offseason moves, but we still need a couple more drafts and off seasons before we're a playoff caliber team. We see Matt as one piece of the puzzle."
