They came back to win when down by 17(the Rosencopter game) and still beat them without Manning. The Texans are the Colts punching bag.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Houston Texans: Mediocrity since 2002

Seems like Manning&#039;s neck injury and loss of a season tied in rather nicely with the Texans only divisional title and playoff game. Listen to a Texans&#039; fan though and they&#039;ll tell you it was their &quot;great defense&quot;. Newsflash fans:that &quot;great&quot; defense still lost to a Manning-less Colts team.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Seems like just yesterday Dominick williams or w/e his last name is now, was the only offensive weapon on the team. I&#039;m happy that 10 years ago was my first year of starting to enjoy football because picking the brand new expansion texans to be my team of choice was a great idea. Through the ups and the downs i&#039;m very pleased with where they are now. I think Kubiak and Phillips will be a great tandem for several more years and wanna thank Mr. McNair for being a great owner.

Now just make it to the playoffs next year and I won&#039;t be stupid and decide to buy tickets too late.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s fascinating how the futility of the first ten should contrast sharply with what appears to be the stability of the next ten.  Stable ownership with focused, consistent management and a coaching staff that garners respect amongst the players from within the Texans locker room, as well as throughout the league are the keys to this  team&#039;s longevity.  It will have been well worth it to develop such a strong foundation as one of the NFL&#039;s most stable and respected franchises.

Well done Mr. McNair, and thank you.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As the most logical tie in to commemorate the Texans becoming the NFL&#039;s all time record holder for being sacks allowed (David Carr / 2002 / 76 sacks), the team will be hosting a Red Cross blood drive before the second home game. 

From the website--

&quot;All blood donors will be rewarded with signed Davd Carr jerseys (we&#039;ve got plenty!) and one lucky winner of the accompanying raffle will get to have lunch with former team mastermind Charley Casserly*. Charley will give you the insight into the game as only a man who drafted Carr (as well as other busts such as Travis Johnson, Jason Babin, and Bennie Joppru) possesses. As a bonus (and if time permits) Mr. Casserly will discuss how Shannon Sharpe still has a job on network TV.&quot;

* Winner agrees to pay all applicable taxes and tips involved. Winner agrees to not discuss what Mr Casserly may or may not say about reaming Bill Belichick &quot;a new one&quot;.]]></description>
