    Random Question: What is installed that allows you to have those settings at the top of your notifications center? Thanks!

    You have to jailbreak your phone. Then install SBSettings. The newest one lets you put it in that drop down menu for easy access. One of the best mods for the iphone.

    That doesn't mean we're letting him go. We still have a shot at signing him.

    Yeah we would have to restructure deals probably and offer him less money but if he wants to stay and get to next level with us then it won't be for as much as he expects.

    He won't be with us next season. He'd have to take a lot less than what others offer to stay here.

    The Franchise Tag seems to piss players off more than anything

    I'd rather get two young recievers in the draft. We can afford Mario, Myers, Dressen and Brisiel if we cut Jacoby and Leinart and then restructure DeMeco, Cody, Smith, Walter, Joseph etc. and just give them the money through a signing bonus.

    Got to remember Schaub, Barwin, D Brown, Casey are all FA's next year too.

    Texans wouldn't have front loaded Arian's deal if they thought they could sign Mario.

    Unless they are seriously back loading it, and that's the way they've figured out how to keep both Arian and Mario. :cool:

    Is Mario Williams banging REO Speedwagon, or the two brothers guys recording this? If it's Mario I say give him Haynesworth money.
