    Damn Texans man, they always have to have the spotlight in houston. For once another Houston team is being talked about more than the texans and now this comes up.

    "The other owners tell me we're doing great. We're on the right track. And that Osweiler trade? Gosh almighty, their jaws are still hanging on the floor and can't believe we pulled it off. So yeah, while we're only 3-3, I like where we're at. Nice to catch up & hear from the fellow owners on how great we're doing."

    The company I work for does 16B annually. I've never heard that used anywhere.

    Context is everything. He said it in a meeting about black players taking a knee. LOL this ain't rocket science.

    Not saying he isnt an idiot and that was the poorest choice of words, but don't act like just because your "$16B company" doesn't use it doesn't mean it isnt a phrase that has been somewhat common.

    what the texans need to do now is stand next to each other and fight for each other and imagine every player of every opponent as bob mcnair!
    take them out, texans. 12-4. vamos texans.

    He won't be wearing a Texans jersey, and no one on the broadcast is going to care.

    Project much

    The reason he used the expression is the owners bent over backwards to meet the players halfway a couple of weeks ago.

    They are the ones concerned that the revenue keeps coming in. It is their league. It was a poor choice of words other than that the cliche does apply here.
