I wish there was an easy way to point you to the video on the Houston Chronicle website, but their navigation is killing me. If you go to chron.com/sports and scroll down, you’ll find video under the “Sights & Sounds” heading. Use their horrible scroll bar to scroll to the video titled “Texans OTA Report” [...]
I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend. I’m still going to be a bit scarce this week, but quickly I wanted to chime in on a few things now that week 2 of OTAs has kicked off. Jacoby Jones fell down and hurt himself I guess he wasn’t taking walking around his own home [...]
If I live to be 200 years old, I will never be able to comprehend the courage and valor it takes for a soldier to take a step forward in the face of something so terrifying. Memorial Day is about honoring those who have died serving and defending our country. Unfortunately, all we can do [...]
The first week of flag football OTAs is over, so let’s look back on some of the stuff that came out of the sessions. CB Glover Quin has been impressive – and for the first time, the coaches admitted that if necessary, they’d take a look at him as a safety… something that was always [...]
Here are some quotes from Gary Kubiak on day two of OTAs, with my thoughts following: (on DE Antonio Smith’s injury) “He’s had a hamstring issue for about the last two weeks, and instead of pushing him through this—we thought he might do something yesterday, but watching him work, to me it didn’t look like [...]
The Texans signed two camp bodies today. If you don’t know who, click here. Day one of OTAs is in the books.

She did a chat about day one of OTAs, and here are [...]
I caught up with Nick Bishop to talk about the Titans draft (and of course Vince Young). Nick is a Titans blogger from TitanSized.com. He has some good insights into the hated Titans, and I recommend checking out his site if you want to keep up with the competition. Which Titans’ draft pick were fans [...]

Round 5 – TE James Casey As I continue to drag out the post-draft coverage as long as possible – let’s hit on what was arguably the biggest surprise of the Texans 2009 Draft Class – Rice product James Casey. Pretty much everything under the Sun has been said about him already, so I’m not [...]
Apparently free agent WR D.J. Hackett was supposed to visit with the Baltimore Ravens today, but instead he ended up paying a visit to Houston instead. Interesting. You’d think with the solid returning receiver corps of Andre Johnson, Kevin Walter, Andre Davis, David Anderson, Jacoby Jones, Darnell Jenkins PLUS the offseason/undrafted free agent acquisitions of [...]
