    McClain is a IDIOT. Even somebody with a below average IQ could have at least been able to surmise that maybe Andre is working out this morning in Miami and then getting on a jet right after to Indy. These are private jets for a reason, you can leave when you want.

    It's not apparent that Pancakes thought of that when he tweeted this post, it sounded more like a denial of the plane report because he is in Miami working out.

    He's a buffoon.

    Can we have a no-pancakes rule on this BBS henceforth?

    Kind of like the hoopsworld embargo or whatever in the Rockets forum.

    It's so frustrating because 95% of fans assume he's the guy when it comes to Texans news (thanks 610am!!!!). You almost feel sorry for them but I guess ignorance is bliss.

    I don't want to ignore him, ignore the problem. He needs to be exposed so people understand what he really is. I wish there was something that could be done. It's one thing to manufacture headlines but another thing completely to just be a flatout bad reporter.

    After the colts embarrass the texans for years to come with Andre it won't matter to Texans management as long as their selling out games. We never even beat the titans with Vince Young they didn't care it's all about the money I don't blame Andre at all.

    So they'll continue to do what they've done the past 13 years, only with Andre Johnson? :)

    They're 4-22 against the Colts, lowest win % among teams they've beaten.
    They've yet to beat Philadelphia(0-4) or Minnesota(0-3).

    I'm going to be sick if Dre goes to Indy. But how fitting will it be when we finally beat the Colts on their turf, going against Andre? Or they just continue to beat us there lol

    He'd be better off in Indy, but I don't think he's winning anything in either place. Going to the Colts is basically a big "F YOU" to Houston and I think that is what he's about.

    Agreed. Unfortunately they broke the mold.

    Nah Dre is too classy for that. He's going to Indy because he wants to play with an elite qb and a team that has a legit shot at winning the afc. 2 things he never had here.

    He's going to Indy because it's his best chance to make a lot of money, win a lot of games, and catch a lot of balls.

    Well he'll have a legit shot to win the division, I don't know that they have a legit shot at the AFC given that they still won't have a defense and they are spending a ton of cash on more offense.

    Can't blame him for its.

    It's a business and he got cut for the same reasons.

    Makes me really wish we had shipped him out of the division/conference last year, Patriot style.

    Would have caused a minor shartstorm for BOB/McNair, but better for the franchise.

    They couldn't have gotten anything for him given his contract situation.

    I don't believe this.

    Someone would have given up something for a one year rental.

    Those of you that say screw you AJ.... Why don't you look at the management and say screw you?! AJ has done nothing but great things for our team and our city. I hope he does well with the Colts or wherever he goes. I truly hope wherever he goes, has a damn good QB. I wouldn't mind him going to the Patriots.

    Good luck AJ. Hope you retire with a ring.

    Maybe you're right, it's possible there could have been a sucker out there willing to pay 16 mil for an aging WR, but I don't think it is a given. Either way, it's not really a big deal....or rather it shouldn't be. If Andre Johnson was going to the Colts 3 years ago, different story.
