May 22, 2008 Babyeating-Sisterfuckers, Bud Adams is evil, Inflamed body parts, Ron Dayne likes pie
Yes, this post is the height of laziness, so just bite me. Consider this post link free!*
The Texans made a couple of moves today, though they are about as Earth-shattering as the time I went to that all-guys shirtless party and met this wonderful lad named…..
Oops.
Sadly, the Texans won’t have a psychotic killing doll on the team as Chukky Okobi was placed on IR. This is his age 30 season, which means it’s doubtful he ever returns, which is kinda sad. Chukky was a fine prospect until his neck injury, and I would’ve loved to see his hard-nosed style lead the offensive line.
We signed Tim Carter! WHEE!!!! The WR is fast as hell, but he couldn’t catch a cold and would probably wind up on the IR if he did. I admit to having a bit of that Al Davis/speed infatuation in me, and here’s another case where I was really fucking wrong. Oh well. Carter won’t last long.
What I most want to mention is that the Babyeating-Sisterfuckers are bringing in Ron “If you cut me, do I not bleed custard?” Dayne for a little talkie talkie. In my harsh opinion, bringing Dayne back into the fold as a RB would have been an epic fail on the part of the Texans. At 452 pounds, Dayne should at least know to fall forward, but he couldn’t. I thank him for his time and effort, but he was done a couple of years ago.
In response to this news, every “House of Pies” in Houston is flying their flag at half-mast, though many kitchen workers are happy for the break.

Say what you will about the Dayne Train, but he was our leading rusher last year and I would love to have have him eat up (Ha!) some roster space. He’s been through a ton and would be good to have around Slaton for a mentor (I don’t trust Ahman Green to mentor my left nut.)
As for Tim Carter…kind of fulfills my fantasy of when Justin Gatlin gave us a workout.

Yeah, I feel kinda mean not being sad to see him go - he gave it a good try - but he just didn’t have a whole lot to give. That he’s down to trying out for the titans says quite a bit, to me, at least.
