So apparently the Texans lost
another game on Sunday. Apparently people who should know better
are surprised by this. And I see the standard
excuses are coming out to excuse the loss.
But frankly, I did some checking around, and came up with some other
ways to explain the loss.
10. The Buffalo Wild
Wings people told the official to throw the game.
9. Bob McNair didn’t
want his buddy Drayton McLane thinking the Astros were all alone in
their suckitude.
8. Hey, why are you people
bitching? At least the Jaguars didn’t get away with an obvious
fake punt this time around.
7. Look on the bright
side. Gary Kubiak actually won a replay challenge. It was
Jack Del Rio who looked like the idiot on the replay challenges this
time around.
6. This was all part
of a grander plan to make the Oakland Raiders feel overconfident next
weekend.
5. Dunta Robinson wrote
“Pay Me Rick” on his shoes. Oh, wait, that was the excuse
the last time.
4. It’s still hard
to believe. Who would think that the Jacksonville Jaguars would
run the same running play as the Tennessee Titans, the New York Jets,
the Minnesota Vikings, and the New Orleans Saints?
3. The coaches are trying
to make sure the Texans have a good spot in the Colt McCoy/Case Keenum
draft lottery this off-season.
2. So they can blow the
pick on another defensive lineman.
1. The Texans didn’t
want to detract from the joy and excitement of the Cougars win on Saturday.
