    The only one I can give you is moon

    Can you please name the fans that want to trade Harden?????

    Foster is most certainly not the best Texan player ever. Ever heard of Andre Johnson????

    Very good signing. This guy can play and if he doesn't play he'll be an excellent backup. I approve.

    You have to remember you are talking to a troll, don't expect an intelligent response.

    Yea, Foster was out for most of last year and Johnson "compiled" a lot of receptions and yards and limited TD's and the Texans won 2 games. The 1st year the Texans made the playoffs Johnson was injured for most of the year and Foster still carried the team to the playoffs... They even won games with Jacoby and Walter at the receiving position and TJ Yates as the quarterback.

    Foster is the backbone of this teams success. But of course you and Bobby believe Dre is the best receiver in the world and I like Dre so you guys think what you want..

    He says it because he's a troll looking to rile people up.

    And how good were the Rockets before Harden showed up...??? A young player on a new team in a position he's never been in and he carried the Rockets to the playoffs with a bunch of nobodies in the western conference and Houston fans criticize him for being a ball hog. Point Made...

    If this were the 80s, you would have a point. But at this junction of the road, the only thing majority of Texans fans care about is winning

    I guess you can't even remotely critisize a black athlete or your are racist?

    Good thing Johnny is white, otherwise this board would be loaded racists.

    I criticize Dre and Hopkins all the time. And Johnny may as well be black with the criticism he gets and the kid hasn't even touched a NFL field yet...

    That's why I made the statement about Johnny, seems many people hate him for some reason.

    Back to the point though, you infered that Teddy would be critisized b/c he is black. Outside of a few idiots, I think most comments w0uld be about his play on the field, either bad or good.

    What happened with Moon was going on in the 90's as well and what happened in Jasper didn't happen in the 80's. And I'm sure you seen the tape of the gang of police officers beating the **** out of a black guy in Houston. The good ol boy mentality hasn't completely died off yet. But you could be right.

    By my math, we currently have about $95M on the book for 2015 (not including Fitzpatrick). Cut JJo, Foster, and Meyers and that brings it down to $76.5M, $56.5M under the current cap . But also keep in mind that we still need to fill out a roster this year and that Watt will have a new deal by then.

    This signing makes me feel like we are taking a QB # 1, Fitzpatrick is going to be there to compete with the young guy and eventually back him up.

    So what are they going to do with Keenum and Yates? Let them duke it out for #3? Is Yates a goner as well?
