Barbaro has risen! It’s a miracle!

Not since Barbaro, the most amazing race horse. human, and goldfish in history, managed to survive a brush with death and return to win the 2008 presidency have we seen a miracle of such magnitude.  After being cut, the Texans’ own version of Barbaro, Charles Spencer, was…..*sobs*

…..was……*keyboard blows up from tears*

…..saw….*lousy fuckin’ replacement dyslexic keyboard*

…..was….

…SIGNED BY THE CAROLINA PANTHERS TODAY! One can only imagine the stirring tribute that Dee Mirich is penning as I type.

Outside of being a total and complete asshole, I have two thoughts:

1. Other teams are now feasting on our scraps, which is a mighty damn good feeling.  As depressing as it was to look at the draft picks in our history, it’s pretty awesome to see where we are today.

2. To Charles, aka “Big Nasty”: My best, and most sincere wishes of good luck to you.  I can’t tell you how jealous I am that you are continuing to pursue your dream.  I hoped against the odds that you’d be back, and I hope the Panthers give you another year to heal.  I know I’m no Dee Mirich, but I really do hope you have a long and successful career.

    Yes, Mr. Quick Draw McGraw, it sad he had to leave us but, I wish him the best! We should warn him, when we go to play the Panthers, we’ll line up Dayne opposite from him, chop block and all.
    Depth is a bitch….and I’m liking the feel of it!

    @Eric: Dayne is no longer a Texan, but a good scenario otherwise.

    @Eric: Even though “That’s what she said” Day is on February 15, ummmm….

    Yes, Mr. Quick Draw McGraw

    That’s what she said! And it’s a little embarrassing, so let’s never talk about that again, mmmmkay?

    @GlassHalfFull: I think that, when he said “Dayne,” he actually meant anybody with the middle name of “Wayne.” Cuz they’re all psycho mass murders. And stuff. I think.

    @GlassHalfFull: Wow, I’ve been looking for a video or something on what happened, but it was Ron Dayne who broke Barbaro’s leg:

    @bigfatdrunk: I know, I need to work on my humor/sarcasm skills in posting comments. They never come off as funny as they are in my head. Be patient with me.

    @Matt: Perhaps Stacy could show BFD a few tricks of the trade. I’m sure he would be more than happy to do so.

    @Foomey: Nope, he can’t. Stacy is far too efficient.
