Support the independent voice of Houston and help keep the future of Houston Press free.
Houstonians have long been aware of the class and dignity that comes in the package we know as Bud Adams.
Adams has demonstrated once again his nuanced understanding of the social mores of our time, and it has resulted in some pain to his pocketbook.
The NFL has fined Adams a quarter-million dollars for giving the middle finger to Buffalo Bills fans from his Nashville superbox during a game Sunday.
Boy: $250K is one expensive middle finger. We're talking Janet Jackson's nipple, in terms of expensive body parts.
Keep the Houston Press Free... Since we started the Houston Press, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Houston, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Houston with no paywalls.
