  1. Granted. Don't think that'd stop the NFL from getting royally pissed about something like this though.
  2. Speaking of, are you familiar with the Appaloosa management model? Also, who does Scott Fitterer report to?
  3. As a plan, that could either be incredibly stupid or absolute genius. Giving who'd be executing it, I'd lean towards stupid. But if it works...
  4. Again, I didn't say it was the smart thing to do. Generally speaking, when there is a "smart thing to do", I expect the Texans to do the opposite.
  5. DeMaurice Smith encourages agents to collude with each other to aid player negotiations Gotta figure the NFL is not gonna be real happy about that idea, especially given that they were accused of collusion with regard to Colin Kaepernick and Eric Reid.
  6. Appreciated, but the point was that I'm actually a lot better off than I used to be There's still concerns. My mother died at age 61. My brother died just after his 62nd birthday. I'm about to turn 54 and have a pretty similar health profile to the two of them. Being romantically attached to a nurse helps though. (especially when she watches my diet like a hawk)
  7. A couple of people have pointed out that Caserio spent years spent under Belichick, a guy who pretty much never gave in on anything. Even if Caserio did ultimately relent though, he'd still have to convince McNair.
  8. If they truly are committed to not trading him, then hanging on to him long enough for interested teams to go in other directions makes sense.
  9. Whether it's actually going to turn out good for Houston? No idea. That they see him talking to them as a positive as opposed to him not even answering their calls? Probably.
  10. I definitely believe McNair's ego is heavily involved here. Caserio's might be too. He likely doesn't want his reputation to hinge on him being the guy that traded away Deshaun Watson. That's actually part of why I think he won't be traded.
  11. Well, this is actual news as opposed to just somebody saying the same thing people have already been saying a different way. From the Texans side, they might see this as progress given that prior to now he wasn't even answering their calls. But even with that said, he hasn't changed his tune.
  12. I'm deeply religious too, and while I respect my pastor, I wouldn't trust him to set my fantasy football roster, much less run an NFL team.
  13. I know the NFL was absolutely all in on Tepper. Heck, they gave Michael Rubin an inflated number and told him if he wasn't willing to pay that much he should probably just bow out. He did, and then the team didn't end up selling for anything close to the number they quoted to him.
  14. Richardson or the NFL? I ask because if I remember correctly, Richardson's son Mark was throwing support behind Ben Navarro.
  15. I'll say again what I've said elsewhere. What on God's green earth does Jack Easterby bring to the table that the Texans would be willing to keep him amidst all this when it's pretty obvious that firing him would be a huge step in the right direction? Heck, from what I've read, firing him would be a good idea even if none of this had ever happened.
  16. I'm guessing a certain someone will be along here sometime today and run with that.
  17. There's a name I'd forgotten. People thought he was gonna be a star but he didn't last very long.
  18. I honestly didn't know he'd been married before. (doesn't change anything, just something I wasn't aware of)
  19. Nah. I'm doing the thing where I'm getting a good laugh about how you have absolutely no clue
