    I bet.

    Closest I've ever come to that is seeing Lebron getting a standing ovation at Cleveland Browns stadium. Doesn't compare to it happening with your two favorite teams, though.

    Harrison on Titans: 'They're dirty, they're cheap'

    Once again, the Texans provided fodder for the network postgame shows in the wake of the Andre Johnson-Cortland Finnegan fight.

    On NBC's Football Night in America, Tony Dungy described Johnson as "one of the nicest guys in the league" and said he warned his players each year before playing the Titans to beware of Finnegan.

    "When I was at Indy, we played against Tennessee twice a year. I always warned my players, 'You have to keep your cool, especially against Cortland Finnegan. He's going to try to get on your nerves,'" Dungy said.

    Rodney Harrison, characteristically, was more to the point.

    "This is no surprise to me," Harrison said. "This team (the Titans), this is their personality. They're dirty, they're cheap. And whenever we played this team, the coaches would say before (the game), 'Guys, beware. They're going to tape a cheap shot at you, they're going to try to provoke you (into) doing something."

    On CBS, Shannon Sharpe expressed similar sentiments.

    "Why is it I can close my eyes, and if there's a team involved in a fight, I know it's the Tennessee Titans? And if I keep my eyes closed, I know another guy is going to be involved, and it's always Cortland Finnegan," Sharpe said.

    "I understand that (Titans coach) Jeff Fisher says we don't coach this, we don't condone this, but why is his team always involved in stuff like this?"

    "They are the constant," replied CBS colleague Bill Cowher.

    Harrison last year made similar comments about the Titans; he continues to harbor ill feelings toward Tennessee for a 2006 incident in which he said Titans receiver Bobby Wade cut-block him and injured his knee. He said he saw Fisher and several Titans players laughing on the sideline after he was hurt.

    See, you are trolling right here because that is 100% absolutely a punch. You can't help yourself can you?

    Yes, it is.

    He hit AJ in the head (while AJ had his helmet on, lol).

    You can see him throw a short right hook, and AJ's helmet/head cocks to the side.

    After that, it was on...

    Cortland #finnegan is now named Cortland Innegan, because #andre Johnson beat the F out of him.

    Damn. I think Andre decided against giving him knees to the ribs.

    Oh please. It's supposed to be a punch. He just realized he was messing with a beast when he tried to throw it, and got scared and couldn't connect.

    I watched the video a few times in slow motion. It's a punch.

    I like how Finnegan just holds his hands up indicating he's had enough. LOL.

    It's really different seeing the players without pads. I know our corners are young, but Quinn looks like a little kid. And he's the most experienced corner we have.

    What were our coaches thinking?

    On a side note, Andre still looks like a beast in the locker room. That man is just raw.

    to say andre got an ovation is an understatement. that was my third rox game of the year and that ovation was the loudest ive heard the toyota center fans all year, although when we held on to win they did get ALMOST as loud lol. AJ barely acknowledged the camera and didnt even crack a smile.
