    Oh people will. They're known as idiots.

    He wanted to stay and was cut. He's going to a playoff team. Nothing wrong with the decision.

    No one is claiming that, least of all Andre.

    Funny to see the haters (not you necessarily) come out now that good teams are showing interest in him

    LOL, the point of trolling is to try and make me angry not to make me laugh at you, I can tell that's your goal so I suggest you word harder on it.

    The Texans cutting him WAS just business, but him making his very first trip to the Texans biggest division rival is clearly an FU.

    Also, for the millionth time, I'm not a Fitz fan simply because I pointed out to you that you didn't know what you were talking about a few times when you were inaccurately describing his performance.

    He stated he wanted to go to a contender with a good QB. Most likely they contacted him.

    Your whole campaign is silly.

    Not as silly as the Fitz one

    C"mon guy, you're embarrassing yourself. I'm fairly sure you aren't as stupid as you are pretending to be. I know that you are a super big fan of Andre Johnson and that puts you at odds with Texans fans but you need to let it go.

    Let what go? I'm happy for him.

    It obviously upsets you he might go to the colts. So frustrating that good teams want him, right?

    Colts are good but have terrible management. Grigson had Luck fall into his lap and has done a pretty awful job putting together a squad around him (Hilton and Vontae Davis are really the only great players he has acquired).

    Fair enough, I never accused you of being a Texans fan so it makes sense that you are happy for him.

    Uh.. you haven't heard anybody complain about how we "done AJ wrong"? Because that is about 1/2 of what I've heard.

    I did put that last little bit in after, but it is interesting how the most polarized tend to feel the need to be most reductionist - putting everybody into an AJOF or an AJOH bin. There is space in between the two far corners of the room.

    Nuance is your word for the day.

    About Andre being a doey eyed country girl. I don't think people are saying Are is just naive.

    But yes I agree with your overall point. Really it just made sense for both aides to part ways at this time.

    Yes because being a Texans fan requires wishing the worst on all other players

    I totally agree with you. :cool:

    Hopefully he doesn't rip us a new one no matter with which team he goes. :(

    The Texans were better off trading him last year. I, for one, faulted him for his little no-show show last year. Especially if he was complaining about a new coach and new QB. IMO, they shouldn't have come out with the whole "retire a Texan" and future with the team talk. But, when the dust settles, bottom line is he is no longer a Texan. I don't think anyone is complaining about him not being here.

    Welp. He's a Colt.

    He has the right to play where he wants to play, but man this is cold. He was my favorite player for years but last year he seemed to uninterested the whole year, it's too bad he had to go out sulking. I hope he has nothing but failure in Indy.

    Seriously we've gotta do something about fixing the graphic on the Texans forum.

    Wow seriously...It's kinda like Berkman going to the Cards I guess. Best of luck (literally) to him. I've seen him drop too many passes in key moments to think he can make a true impact on the receiving end, but run blocking for Gore is a different story.
