Why I hate the chron, reason #467
Jul 24, 2008 Dancing With the 'Tards, Fuck the Cowboys
So, I have been obsessive-compulsively refreshing the chron and Texans home page looking for any sign of a Duane Brown signing. Instead, this is what I am treated to:
To the chron: Seriously, if you guys are so obsessed over the assholes to our north, move there. Go. You’ve repeatedly shown a lack of interest covering the Texans. Just go. Get it over with. And don’t come back.

Wait…you mean the Dallas CreditCard Millionaire or whatever it is called doesn’t regularly run Texans updates?!

Ha, wow. Pretty blatant there. I guess you could justify it in the Houston-area athlete makes it to the big time angle, but there’s plenty of Houston-area athletes that have made it to the big time. I remember them having a separate section for Kevin Kolb stuff for a while last year.

@socctty: I know I’m mostly being an asshole, but this is a pattern that has been repeated the comicle. It really bothers me, as well.

BTW, if I am anywhere near accurate, that’s about the 6th time I’ve called myself an asshole today. Not necessarily a record but indicative of my day.

I’m glad that the internet has phased out the Chronicle for me.

I’ve decided that John McClain was the inspiration for “Chubby Fat Ass” in The Shawshank Redemption. I’m sure he’s intimate with several bull queers that just love that big mushy butt of his.

According to Rotoworld, Mr Mittens suffered a foot injury. Obviously, he was injured while desperately clinging to the ankles of Jeremy Shockey as he attempted to board his flight to New Orleans.

…still nothing on Comical.
@Tyler, from the previous post (Important Update!), Paul Khuharsky is the AFC South writer/blogger for ESPiN. He left his postion at the Tennessean when he took his current job. He previously was the local writer here and I hear him 3 times a week and Jabba McHutt here on local radio. Khuharsky will be in Houston on Sunday and Monday to report on the Texans for ESPiN. He was just talking about it on 104.5 The Zone (Nashville radio station).
Just wanted to clarify his current employer and yes, he’s an asshat.
