While commenting on a recent post " Texans down N' Dirty: Ricky Hatton Edition" I became involved in an interesting (to me at least) conversation regarding Travis Johnson and thought I'd touch on the topic again briefly here. A lot of fans are unhappy with Johnson's performance on the field for the Texans so far, so it's natural to just assume that he's "terrible", has no talent,...

Trent Green Learns From The Master: Well, we couldn’t let this go unnoticed during our week off. “You may have heard I recently decided to retire.” I did? Didn’t Travis Johnson retire you two years ago, champ? “If you’re going to St. Louis for the MLB All-Star Game you have to [...]

As curtisdisco mentioned in a fanpost , Xavier Adibi has bulked up to 240 pounds in an attempt to beat out Zac Diles for the starting weakside linebacker spot . One of the issues with Adibi coming out of college was his lack of size and it didn't help that he suffered a major illness before last season that caused him to lose even more weight. Before his season ending injury, Adibi's game weight was...

Travis Johnson started the blog and he is busy with another project to help unite Progressive Republicans, so he asked me to oversee the day-to-operations of the Blog. Don't worry, I will still blog here and will probably do crossposting to the...

So I've been trying to keep this under wraps to surprise you all ninja-style, but there have been a few leaks here and there . If it seems like I've been preoccupied and not posting as much the past few months, it's because I've been busy as the editor of We Are Penn State , a 2009 Penn State football preview magazine being published by Maple Street Press that is due to hit book shelves this July....

The day after DelJuan Robinson was lauded as a possible starter by Gary Kubiak, Travis Johnson miraculously makes his OTA's debut for the team. Very little was said about his performance on the field, but I would say in this situation no news equals bad news for the former first round pick. Hopefully Frank Bush continues giving Robinson reps with the first team despite the presence of Johnson; a trend...
