    Dude, what part of "speculation" do you not understand. Besides, it's really just become popular to say because it's funny, not because it's necessarily true. It's a running joke, I can't believe you haven't heard it mentioned before.

    From the Inside Fantasy Football section (page 118) in Sports Illustrated so take it for what it is worth:

    Coming On Strong
    1. Houston The most porous line in football not too long ago, the Texans have found a way to stop the pass rush: Their 22 sacks allowed in 2007 were less than a third of their '05 tally (68). This year the run blocking will catch up, thanks to the hiring of zone-blocking guru Alex Gibbs, who worked with coach Gary Kubiak when were both on Denver's staff. That's good news for running backs Ahman Green and Chris Brown.

    I see where AM left her email addy. While don't you email her and see how funny she thinks it is. Just because you have the ability to make classless and immature jokes in a public forum while being anonymous doesn't mean you should do it.

    Somebody else made the joke and when someone asked if it was true I replied that it was only speculation. What's your problem? The rumors/jokes (true or false) about her and John McClain get brought up every time her name appears on the BBS. That's been going on for at least a year. I chime in once to say that those rumors are just speculation and all of a sudden I'm some major prick. I notice you didn't call out the poster who actually brought it up and made the joke. I'm sure John McClain doesn't appreciate being called a "thumb" either but you didn't get pissed off about that. Get the sand out of your vagina and go b**** about something else.

    You're also a prick for posting Luther Head's stats for one bad series, making him look like he really sucks. Hey, maybe he sucks for an NBA player, but he's still in the top 99.9999th percentile. That's pretty good in my book.

    Bring it back on topic or there will be some time outs issued to both sides. If you wanna discuss stuff about McClain take it to the hang out.

    So how many snaps will Schaub, Chris Brown, and other injury prone players get? You think they will go easy with them?

    Kubiak said Schaub and the other vets will get about 10-15 snaps, he also said he wants to see a lot of Boyd. I would also bet that Walker gets the bulk of the carries on Saturday.

    Thank you so much for posting that! I was going to try and see if it was being shown somewhere downtown (Austin) but now I can watch it at home!

    Thanks again!

    Can't wait. I live in Nacogdoches, and even up here we are getting the game on CBS. Can't wait.

    Green already injured himself a little on the first offensive play. I can't say I'm surprised. :rolleyes:
