There's a good chance that we will have one away game in an international location. Five teams (Jacksonville, Oakland, Tampa Bay, Chargers and Rams) have agreed to host an international game (i.e. London or Mexico City) in 2019 and the Texans have three (Jaguars, Chargers, Buccaneers) on their road schedule. The Raiders are on the home docket so they won't be a candidate.

Of course we all remember the Texans debacle in Mexico City a few years ago where the refs were fed tequila until they couldn't see straight. And didn't one of the Texans get robbed off the field too?

Well, you now have a passport after all these years, Buford, so maybe you can go to one of these international games and see the Texans play in person for once, after all these years, Buford.

Feliz ano, by the way.

Feliz nuevo ano to you too. I have no desire to fly to Londonabad and little reason to fly to Mexico City. Seeing a game against the Saints in New Orleans sounds interesting though. Good cajun food is always a plus.

We could always set up a Deshaun Watson Annual Bus Trip to J-ville. That would be a great promotion.

That's a damn good idea! You know, I've been to Skynyrdville to see games many times, and although it is not the liveliest of the NFL cities (nor is it the least lively...), it's not a horrible place to weekend. There are always tons of Texans fans at the game (if you care about that), and since they overhauled the stadium I have to say that it is a perfectly enjoyable facility.

If the Chargers are still playing in that soccer stadium next year that might be a trip worth taking. I'd kind of like to see an NFL game in a high school sized venue.

That's it, I knew the Chuckster would step up on this and with his Learjet (or Gulfstream, I forget what he's flying these days, he trades them nearly every year you know), but the IntheBullseye crowd could go into that rinky-dink stadium and take over as if we owned it.
