    Or Todd Blacklege who was actually drafted ahead of Dan Marino. In fact, for every Terry Bradshaw you name, I can probably come up with about 10 guys like Dan Pastorini...

    I don't think you have anything to fear on that point. The Texans have more than conclusively shown that they are quite capable of screwing things up all by their lonesome...They don't need any advice from a third party to do that.

    I see your point but all the bleating for Vince Young simply has no effect on me anymore. I just think it's pointless to get all worked up over this any more.

    LOL, I don't have "fear" of Vince Young. I just don't think we should print his ticket to the Hall of Fame until he throws more TD's than INT's in a season. He hasn't done that yet.

    I've asked gr8-1 to come up with one example in this thread of anyone "hating" Vince Young and he hasn't. So can we stop with the "hater" nonsense? Just because some people choose not to fall to their knees and praise the almighty Vince Young 4 times a day doesn't mean they "hate" him.

    Wow, you can't be serious. Do you have any idea how ridiculous this sounds? There's no such thing as a "once in a lifetime player" so quit throwing around that term. I guess Earl Campbell was a once in a life time player as well? He played like 30 years ago so these must be some short lifetimes we are dealing with.

    And yeah, I'm sure Kubiak and Smith are going to be so stunned from passing over Vince Young last year that they won't be able to make any good moves within the next 10 years to field a good team. :rolleyes:

    P.S. How many super bowls did Campbell win for the Oilers again?

    Well I'm not the one that is worked up. It's the people who want to get rid of Carr right now for nothing in return that are worked up. It's the people who say "I can't not take a another year of Carr" even though we might get some other great signings and picks who are worked up.

    But when I see a post that says "Go Titans, beat the Texans" I might have something to tell them. :)

    no...i'm just having a hard time understanding where the "kick them in the the teeth" passion is coming from.

    So, if you didn't care, why does it matter?

    No, I got the point. I've heard it a bunch from more than one person. That's why it annoys some of us (and I'm not saying you do). If you barely cared about the Texans to begin with and choose to root for VY/Titans over the Texans, fine. I just don't understand the point of sticking around to remind Texans' fans that you (and I'm not talking specifically to you) think they made a mistake.

    A lot of us cared about the Texans before they even had a name. So, to those of us that have, it's the same thing as this board being overrun with Dirk supporters since the Titans are not only a division rival, they're owned by a guy that moved the Oilers from Houston.

    no...you're missing the point entirely. read my posts with meowgi over the last 2 pages or so. it has nothing to do with what you're talking about. it's not about whether or not i cared about the texans before...it's about whether he did...and where all the related venom comes from.

    I have always cared. I just wasn't gung ho. Relationships take time. All of this somehow made me more of a fan, not less. It's like someone picking on your dorky little brother. Yeah, he's a dork but he's still your brother, and he just might surprise you one day.
