Merry Christmas!

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL, Site Announcements

I hope everyone has a great Christmas this year. Let’s all make sure we especially take a minute to think about our troops in Afghanistan, Iraq, and all over the world. They’re giving up a lot to keep us safe, and here I am – complaining about a football team. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays [...]

Bart Scott hates everybody. I love Bart Scott.

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL, Site Announcements

Ravens LB Bart Scott: “I hate everybody on every other team than mine. I don’t give a [expletive] about anybody on any other team – period. I don’t speak to them during the game. I’m not high-fiving guys. And I’m talking about guys who have been here and left, too. It doesn’t matter. You’re trying [...]

Steppin’ out, gonna see a football game

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL, Site Announcements

What exactly is John McCain doing here? Dancing? Being punched in the stomach by an invisible gnome? Dry-heaving? Heart attack? Whatever it is, It disturbs me deeply. Anyway… I’ll be out for the weekend. I’m attending the Lions/Texans game – and dammit, I’m taking my camera! So late Sunday night or sometime Monday, I’ll post [...]

Podcast update, Texans notes

Author: Chris | Files under Houston Texans & NFL, Site Announcements

Injury notes from today’s post-practice presser: Looks like DT Travis Johnson might miss Sunday’s game. Gary Kubiak says that Jeff Zgonina would “definitely” start in place of TJ if he can’t go… much to the chagrin of most of the voters on the current HDH Poll. Jacoby Jones was mentioned as one of the players [...]

Welcome to the NEW HoustonDiehards.com

Author: Chris | Files under Site Announcements

After many long nights testing and tweaking down to the smallest detail, I’m finally happy (enough) to launch the new-look HoustonDiehards.com website. The content hasn’t much changed, but the look certainly has. I’ll still be making little changes and adjustments here and there – probably for a long time – but I think it’s stable [...]

For the long weekend, I’m going to leave some site announcements up while I prep for what should be a very busy week on HoustonDiehards.com. I want this to stay at the top of the page for a couple of days, so if the Texans make any roster moves in the next couple of days, [...]

SOS FROM BEHIND ENEMY LINES

Author: Chris | Files under Site Announcements

I’m crossing the country, headed back to the comforts of the Great State of Texas in a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis. Right now, I’m huddled in a corner sending out this distress signal – if you don’t hear from me in a few days, it will mean that I was overrun. See, I’m in Crossville, [...]

Listen to this, unless you hate Johnny Cash

Author: Chris | Files under Site Announcements

…and if you do, I feel bad for you. The site’s been a little jacked-up tonight, as I’ve been relentlessly testing the podcast interface-to-be. As a test track – and with apologies to Matt and BFD for ripping their Saturday Night Tunes idea – check out my all-time favorite Cash song while I continue this [...]
