Kickoff
Jun 12, 2008 Anna-Megan is retarded, Bloggerating, Bob McNair, DeMeco Ryans, Football 101, Kickoff, Winstonsaurus
Your balls are shaped funny. As the U.S. Open kicks off today, you might notice one duffer, Bobby Collins, with a Texans logo on his hat and bag. That’s the kind of thing you do when Bob McNair agrees to sponsor you in the Gateway tour, brining you back from the verge of early retirement. Hey, maybe he’d like to sponsor a couple ne’er-do-well bloggers…
Winstonsaurus smash puny baseball! Grr! Texans players hit the field at the Juice Box yesterday for the 6th annual charity homerun derby thingy. Contestants included DeMeco Ryans, Mario Williams, and Captain Tradebait, among others, but the big bat of the night belonged to Eric Winston. Three of Winston’s four homers even reached the upper deck, an area that Darin Erstad and Michael Bourn have only heard legend of.
Slut. It seems that Shake’s interest in the Texans extends beyond smart-assed comments and witty observations. Shake: From the defensive side of the ball, what specific improvements do you see in the O-line this offseason? DeMeco: Hey, ain’t you that dude who comments on those dumbass blogs? (One of those quotes might not be accurate.)
80=80. Chris has been doing a great job of breaking down some of the logistical concerns behind guessing who will make the 80-man roster. One thing that makes it so tough this year is that the 80-man roster really does mean 80 human beings. In years past, teams were allowed the use of up to 6 additional players through NFL Europa roster exemptions. Now, of course, Europa is dead, but the league has not increased the 80-man limit.

DeMeco interview:
Also what are your first impressions of Xavier Adibi? I watched some of his college games and was almost always involved in the play. Should we expect something similar?
DeMeco_Ryans: Adibi is very athletic and smart lineman.
Huh? This does not bode well for the namesake of this blog.

Ouch. It’s Anna-Megan’s blog, so let’s just assume she fucked up typing it.

Or, the Texans are doing something wild and crazy in their third-down packages.

Xavier and DeMeco are two wild and crazy guys!

Yes, that was an old school SNL reference. What? You wanna fight about it?
-
I think Shake died after he realized DeMeco read and responded to his question. Either that or he’s on the floor somewhere giggling to himself.

EDIT: Fixed it. And you question was in the full transcript, but not the excerpt that I linked to for some fucking reason.

Wow. That quoting thing didn’t work at all. I’m sure I’ll lose all sorts of sleep for days now, fretting about that.
