    Any latest updates?

    Only thing I saw was that Texans were working out LB's yesterday... not a good sign.

    Cushing is actually the most indispensable player on this team.... offense and defense. Their replacements for him simply cannot do the things he does. Additionally, he makes the defensive calls, he's a captain, and likely is this team's emotional leader.

    I don't expect any wins as long as he's out.

    I heard someone on the radio yesterday saying they talked to him and he's good to go this Sunday.

    He said he could have returned Sunday after passing a concussion test but they would not let him.

    I think that's a NFL rule. If you're taken out for possible concussion eval, you can't come back in.

    I heard he shot crystal meth into his thigh and was seen dragging the team bus up and down Reliant's parking lot at 3 am last night.

    Agree with both of these statements. Forget any Schaub stuff...Cush is the important one for the rest of the season

    Did anyone watch the Channel 13 Sunday night Texans show? Spencer Tillman showed Daryl Sharpton on several of the long running plays after Cushing left and he was PATHETIC. He was getting blocked with one hand and wasn't even trying to make a play.

    Seriously, I'm not a knee-jerk guy, but what has Sharpton ever done since being a Texan besides play bad and sit on the IR? He is Antwaun Molden Part II. Put Dobbins in. At least he'll try to make a play.

    Him and Watt are monsters, that absolutely have to stay healthy. Our Corners haven't gotten the hype, but they too have been pretty freaking good.

    Our defense other than the 1st half of the San Diego Game has been utterly dominant.

    His relative is al sharpton and bobby doesn't want to get sued.


    First two rounds, I want them to draft a quarterback and 34 inside linebacker.

    I'm waiting for Buddy Ryan to punch Kevin Gilbride. Draft some 46 inside linebackers! :grin:
