Training camp/Preseason not that far off

[Arky]

Well, it's just about 5-6 weeks till training camp starts. First preseason game is Aug 11. Not much longer to go....

I'm not a season ticket holder, but I usually buy seats for a game once a year from a guy who is. Anyway so what's the date for the Texans to distribute tickets to season ticket holders ?

It's usually in mid-July.

Father's Day weekend is usually the time when I start to get a real itch for the next season. Quiet summer this year with no CBA issues.

This is the time of year I reach for some DVDs of great games of the past, particularly cold-weather games so I can "feel" January when it is friggin hot outside. The problem is most of my favorites I've watched so many times I can almost remember what happens before they snap the ball.

Got the playoff win over the Bagels. Maybe that would be a good one to watch.

yeah, i think they usually mail them out about a month before the first pre-season game.

I recorded the Saints game from last year when I was out of town and never got around to watching it because we lost. Anyway watched it yesterday for the first time - dang, talk about a game we should have won, what a batch of blown, wasted opportunities in the red zone. But we really played very well (well for most of the game), the offense was extremely impressive and I hope that that's the Andre we see this season, he was awesome.
Anyway, it definitely got me pumped for the upcoming season.

Anyone know when the tickets for fans to attend training camp usually become available?

Man, talk radio can't stop talking about basketball/NBA/Rockets/Howard. I've been turning off the radio and turning on the TV... You'd think this was a one sport town....

What else is there to talk about? The Astros suck and were coming off All-Star break and there isn't anything at all going with the Texans.
