    Why not? Everyone knew this was an inevitability anyway. I just jumped on to see how many folks would kick some more dirt on his grave. I don't feel bad for him at all - he has millions of $$$ to help make him feel better but I honestly don't think he really cares that much to feel bad. Just be prepared for seeing him on someone else's roster next season.

    Hmm.. maybe I can pick him up for my flag football team for $5. Put him on the other team and watch him still get sacked.

    You really believe someone will take a flyer on him? After getting Testaverde out of retirement over playing him, I dont think anyone will give him a shot. He and Tim Couch are going to go play golf together or something.

    Just for the record, I was one of the Carr apologists. Crow is tasty. Not as tasty as the crow I ate over the Mario/Reggie debate, but this is good nonetheless... :p

    Yeah its hard to be in someones head, but I think this is probably an accurate assessment. Seemed like every time I would look up there was some article about Carr not wanting to spend time in the film room because it took time away from his family.

    Maybe that makes him a good man..it sure makes him a crappy QB.

    Oh yeah! If there's one thing that's in short supply in the NFL, it's bodies that can suit up at QB. The reasoning will be that he's still young and has been mishandled throughout his "career".

    i think it's pretty difficult to make that argument now. that argument didn't get tim couch very far, either.

    If our backup QB had sucked, you, my friend, would be whistling a different tune.

    wow...

    I remember wanting the Texans to draft Bryant McKinnie or Julius Peppers with their first-ever pick. I was OK with Carr as far as quarterbacks in that draft, though. I knew Joey Harrington wasn't going to amount to a hill of beans. God, what a weak-ass draft for QBs. David Garrard is the lone semi-standout -- taken in Round 4???

    Because Matt was out due to illegal hits etc? You aren't making much sense.
