TV = NBC (channel 2 local), Saturday 3:30 pm CST

Announcers = Tom Hammond, Mike Mayock, sideline - Alex Flanagan

The line = Texans by 4.5

Texans are 0-0, not 12-4. Time for some win or go home.....

Saturday evening game of Vikes vs. Packers should be a good'un, too...

Third weekend in a row the Texans are favored ? What could that mean if anything, third time charm or a jinx ?
I'm wondering if the Chuckster has peered into his crystal-ball for the outcome of this game, or maybe that's something that works best for him post-game ? Hopefully he won't be too reticent with his forecast ? Personally I don't have a clue or a feel what the Texans are gonna do Saturday, but I'm bracing myself for the worst.

Less than 24 hours later, 3100 tix remain. Pretty interesting stuff. Folks making a quick buck I suppose. According to the main site, face value tix thru ticketmaster sold out in 15 minutes.

I'm guessing most fans thought that the Texans wouldn't be playing this weekend and made other plans. Selling an event one week's notice isn't as easy as it sounds. Even if fans had anticipated this, they wouldn't have known whether to set aside Saturday or Sunday, afternoon or evening until Dec. 30th.

And, yes, Houston fans have always been fickle. They've had their hearts crushed a few times before.

A few times? Are you kidding me? Try over and over for 50+ years I have been getting my heart crushed by Houston sports teams.
