    So you found that older, masculine encouragement increased your sexual fulfillment, above that of just being with a female. That might be a sign.

    It did. He was offended I attacked his qb.

    Gone silver.

    Off to the patriots board for you. I hear that organization likes murderers and spies.

    Phew, Bullock and Marciano still have a job. I was getting worried for a minute.

    DOH! forgot about Hop and OD. Duane Brown has been hit or missed this season also but he has not been 100% HEALTHY lately so I'll give him a pass.

    i think this is a tactic to get the fans thinking and discussing this, instead of
    thinking of the sorry coaching staff... I hope fans chant fire marciano at the Home
    Game This weekend :)

    If the Texans were in contention I would be kind of mad, but in actuality this is sort of funny.

    No prob. He'll just go to another team that actually wins games.

    You think he will play another snap in the NFL this season huh? Ed Reed was a bottom of the barrel safety.

    Wow. This speaks volumes of the Texans organization.

    Ed Reed speaks the truth against the coaching and gets released. (He probably wanted that)

    Not a good sign. Rick Smith and Gary Kubiak will probably be here next season.

    But to also be fair to the Texans a guy to the caliber of an Ed Reed speaks out against the organization like that can really permeate a locker room because their words can hold a lot of weight and further divide a locker room.

    Ed Reed = Derek Fisher

    Just that he played in a few games so that he can go sign with a contender.

    Things aren't going quite as well as we'd hoped.

    One thing is for sure...Ed Reed is one smart mofo...

    He knew what buttons to push to get the pink slip on this team. Poor performance doesnt really matter. Rip the coaches, and you get axed...Some how i think the man knew what he was doing when he said what he did...

    Hoping he goes back to that $hti hole called Baltimore...

    Thanks for the memories...

    So the Texans will say this was performance and will cite his per game bonuses and stuff to the media, but I was told this was completely about his comments.

    I'm not so sure his comments were the reason for him being released, but it certainly didn't help.

    The season is all but over and he was here to make plays in the playoffs. He hasn't played well, and barely at all for that matter so you might as well cut your losses and let the young guys get the younger backups play and prep for next season.

    Meh. If Andre Johnson makes those comments, he's not getting released. Maybe a one quarter or one half suspension. This had everything to do with Reed's performance. The comments just made it easy for them to kick his ass out the door.

    Well considering he totally sucked, you are right that if he didn't complain he could have hung around and earned his bonus.

    But it was about performance first, malcontent second, money last.
