One of my coworkers who knows I'm a big fan offered to take my shift last minute. I would've just been following the scoreboard on my phone. I definitely owe them lunch on Monday.
It's football time in Houston! Seriously, they need a new song to play before the game. Clay walker does not get me hyped.

Clowney out? Whatever. Texans should be use to playing without him. Anyway, hoping for the best today. Expectations for this team are low so team should just go out there, play loose, and let it fly.
