Kickoff

How NOT to blog.  From–surprise!–a Baby-eating Sisterfuckers’ fan blog comes a fantastic example of why old media thinks blogs are a ridiculous exercise.  Sweeping generalizations about other teams?  Check.  A pollyanna-esque assumption that all the players on your team will be healthy and uber-productive?  Check.  A conclusion that does not follow logically from anything you have written?  Check.

Know thy enemyPetey Faggins turns 29 today, making him the worst 29-year-old CB in the league and opening the door for someone else to claim the title of Worst 28-year-old CB.  Congrats! (He also allows me to link to one of my favorite posts.  Woot!)

Um…what?  Article from RealFootball365, suggesting that we should sign LaMont Jordan because our RB roster is currently Ahman Green, Vonta Leach, Admichinobi Echemandu, and Samkon Gado.  Way to research your premises, guys.  Fo’ real.

That’s about it…not much Texans news floating around the ether today.  Hopefully, I’ll be back with something later today.  No promises, though.

    LaMont Jordan killed my 2006 FFL season. Fuck him. Right in the ear.

    What gives me giggles is when I see people suggest we should pick up Cedric Benson.

    Puto - depending on its usage, can mean either:
    -A gay male
    -A male slut
    -A gay male slut
    -Good friend from the ‘hood.

    Since it’s your birthday, I’ll let you choose. The interpretation is all yours!

    I was unaware of the fourth meaning. But, since the Texans blogosphere is kind of like a hood (full of dweebs), I’ll go with that.

    Speaking of which, the divorce lawyer asks Mickey, Now you say you’re divorcing Minnie cause she’s crazy? No says Mickey, I’m divorcing her cause she’s fucking Goofy.
    Happy Birthday!

    Puta can mean…
    - A bitch
    - A fucking bitch
    - A bitch with sunburns on the bottom of her feet
    - A friendly blogger
    Your call…

    LOL - the best thing about that 365 blogger’s entry is that - it’s an Oakland Raiders entry - and Echemandu is currently on the roster for………………THE FUCKING RAIDERS! They re-signed him after they dropped him, then after WE cut him. Wow. What an idiot. That entry could also fit the criteria for #1 on today’s Kickoff.

    Happy birthday, Matt. I hope it’s a great one.

    … and there’s a comment from a Raider fan that calls it an ‘excellent article’. WTF. Are these people not as bored as Texan fans in the off-season to where they don’t even know who’s on their own roster??

    @chris: That is awesome on so many levels. And people think Raiders fans are dumb?

    @everyone: Thanks. I plan on kicking my wife’s ass on the go-kart track this pm and then drinking until I nearly die.
