Bob McNair/the Texans are finally putting digital video boards into Reliant.  They're both going to be bigger than Jerry's stupid thing, except that they're just replacing what is already in the stadium and are over the endzones instead of the middle of the field.  The dimensions are also going to be pretty different.  Here's some pictures:

The current things:



What the new ones are going to look like:



And a comparison so you can see the size/shape:

They're only going to be partially used for video, with the rest going to advertisements, etc.  Also, if the Texans win tomorrow, they get home field throughout, so that would be good.

I will not support the dog munchers Gambling addiction.

Poor Lions.  They should ask for a secondary for Xmas.

[CountDeMoney]

At least Megatron got the record.

The good news: RGIII will play against the Eagles

The bad news: the game is on the same time as the cowgirls game so I will not be watching it

How can he have only 5 touchdowns with those stats?

He gets tackled before he runs into the end zone.  It isn't uncommon for receivers to have skewed stats like that. 

The first year I ever did fantasy football was 1991 I think.  You only got points for TDs, no yardage or anything else; 6 points or 0.  I had Al Toon on my team and that bastard caught 70+ passes for almost 1,000 yards but didn't score a single TD.  He got caught from behind inside the 5 yard line every goddamn game.  I hated that piece of shit.

If it makes you feel any better he got so many concussions that year he retired the next season.  Dude made his living over the middle.

Excessive celebration?  Isn't that the same thing that whatshisname in Minnesota does every time he gets a sack?

[derspiess]

Ha-- fuck you Big Ben.

[Neil]

Ouch.  I guess that's what's you get for gloating.

Forbath sets the record for consecutive made FGs to start a NFL career 

Ok now that that is over with maybe the Skins can score a few TDs.
