I haven't seen anything either. Chron doesn't have it and I think they would. Rotoworld doesn't have it either. Maybe he wasn't released,maybe he's just on double-secret probation.
![]() I can't help but wonder if this is all just confusion started by that Chronicle blogger last week. The one who took over for Texan's Chick. The guy is a real tool. Always claiming to have inside knowledge about things when he is just guessing or getting stuff of the internet. Like Sly used to do. Hey, maybe he IS Sly. LOL. |

Forget Charles "ittybitty" Spencer for a minute...
What the heck happened? I'm all excited about the upcoming 2008 NFL Draft and just like in 2004 or 2005, I can't find the page! Did I get banned? What should I do? Do I go to the other board where the posters complain about font size, etc? Am I in hell? Should I just give in and become friggin broncos fan? DO i just start getting into basketball? And the crying began...full blown man tears. Yet I did not give up nor give in. Persevere and you shall be rewarded I told myself! And here we are...just like a period of time with no woman in your life and you get back in THAT saddle again. Somebody tell Ric if he's ever in Colorado and needs a good azz kickin to give me a call. |

Yes, welcome (back) coloradodude. Glad you finally made it here. We had a good time posting threads on the draft.

http://blogs.chron.com/fanblogtexans...rosevel_1.html It wouldn't surprise me if he does get cut, but I think the Texans are going to wait until they have to make the cuts to get to 80 in camp....we have been waiting for two years? already. Why not wait a few more weeks. If he does get cut, maybe Maddox can put in a good word for him and hook him up with a job delivering furniture for a year or two before he makes his big comeback.

That is just a shame. A third round pick who was the LT of the future and so much promise cut short by injury. In some ways, I can understand why NFL players try to get those huge signing bonuses, one play and you could be all done. Of course, if someone gave me 10 or 15M, I could live comfortably the rest of my life.

Well shoot, hold on, I couldn't find a link either. In Navy parlance, I guess I would have to say "Belay that!" I sure don't want to pile anymore badluck on Spencer. He has certainly had enough of it already. I will keep looking, but I am dreadfully sorry for having posted any misinformation.

As hard as I've rooted for him to come back I don't see the Texans keeping Spencer much longer. It pains me to see a promising career cut short by some freak injury. Second game of his career and done. Harsh but sometimes life does that. I hope nothing but the best for him.

The guys makes $500 more than Winston. From a business POV, and only from a business pov, he needs to show that he's on track to produce. Otherwise, you make room on the roster.
Sorry to sound so cold. |

God, not only did Dayne not do anything with his career but he also ruined a promising LTs career. |

I really have trouble understanding all the Dayne hating I hear these days. Dayne is what he is, and we ought to be grateful we had him the last couple of years, because most of that time he was the best back we could put on the field. Sure, it would have been great if we could have put an all pro out there, but guess what? Nobody has an all pro at every position and nobody ever will.
We had the misfortune to lose a solid runner, DD, who went out with a career ending injury. Because he was "playing games" with the front office in order to get a bit more money before he retired, he put the team in a terrific bind. Dayne was about the best we could expect on such short notice. He definately has his limitations, but in certain situations he can actually be effective. Certainly more so than Lundy, Gado, Echiwhatever, etc. The team could have drafted a first day pick last year and gotten somebody better, but we took Okoye and Jones. Jones was a definate need because we couldn't count on Mathis, and because we needed speed on the other side of Andre Johnson. Okoye was a definate need because our pass rush was about the worst in the league. So we didn't draft a running back. Too Bad. We tried to fill the need by getting Green and unfortunately, he got a deep knee bruise after two pretty effective games, both of which we won. A deep knee bruise is a serious injury and can happen to anyone at any time, so don't try to put it off on Green's age. It had NOTHING to do with his age. Green was out, so we had to go with Dayne again. Don't hate Dayne for that. He was just a second stringer doing the best he could. We may struggle again this year at running back because Green is 31 years old, and because for all we know, Brown may not be completely healthy and is hiding it from the team. It happens all the time. It's a chance the team has to take from time to time. Taylor may not be recovered completely from his injury. If he is, I think he could be a solid runner. Slaton may surprise us, though I still have trouble believing he will be effective between the tackles. I just don't think he's the type that breaks tackles. I really don't expect much from Walker. I hope he surprises me. Maybe he's perfect for the new Gibbs attack. And as far as hating Dayne for running over a lineman, I'm not even going to comment on that. It's not worth it. |
