I was gonna reserve judgment on my comment that this is why Sage has never been a successful starting QB. Now you know why. Granted our O-line sucks, but Sage Sucks too. It's a symbiotic relationship
Not really. If anything, it proves both suck. Granted, I'd still like to see a Houston QB that has a chance with a decent O-line to work with. Yet, for the time being they both really really suck.
The NFL does sellout nearly everywhere... with the exception of cities that wouldn't have a pro team if it wasn't for the power of the NFL (Jacksonville, Tennessee). Waiting lists are plentiful for season tickets as well. The Astros built Minute Maid Park perfectly... right down to the last detail. The roof + location combines to = ulitmate fan comfort. Not all new ballparks around the league were built that well. And as far as the Rockets are concerned... the NBA's downturn hasn't affected Dallas, Utah, San Antonio, Chicago, LA, or even Cleveland. And we have freaking Yao Ming + McGrady (which alone would be enough in all of the above cities), not to mention a winning team.
Was is Minnesota who wanted to give us a draft pick for Sage? 5th rounder? 6th rounders? Whatever it was, we're suckers for not making that deal.
I hope so. I love watching steelers games, cause the way that they swarm the QB and he ball, blitzing relentlessly and putting pressure causing turnovers.
