Uhh maybe because he is from Houston, played for Texas, & was drafted to Houston's old team, the Houston Oilers, now called the Tennessee Titans.

The rules for free agency and expansion drafts have hardly changed since the Panthers and Jaguars came into the league in 1995.
Quit making excuses.
The Texans made countless bad draft choices (David Carr), expansion draft picks (Toni Boseli) and free agent picks (Ahman Green) to get to the level of ineptitude and mediocrity that they have experienced up until this season.

Are you kidding me? I've been streaming Houston sports radio online this week, and the number one topic, easily, is the Texans. Vick is hardly discussing and there have only been a couple of VY fans calling in that are saying they are warming up to the Texans. No need to lie on the Internet buddy. You're not the only one listening to sports radio in Houston.

WOW! You need to do some research buddy. That's the funniest thing I've ever heard.

Yes, the Texans did, but that's because of Charlie Casserly and Dom Capers. Both were horrible (and I love how Casserly tries to take credit for the Mario Williams pick). Once Kubiak and Rick Smith came in, the Texans have drafted a lot better. In fact, they've built almost the entire team through the draft (which is a reason why they're the youngest team in the league).

Does Vince Young deserved to get pulled out of the game like that?

Please clue me in on how the rules for free agency have drastically changed since then.
I can guarantee you're wrong.

I'll be waiting......

Don't care about VY, but I think he should have been able to finish out the game.

Go look up the expansion draft rules and amount of money in free agency that Carolina and Jacksonville had compared to Houston, and hell, even the new Cleveland Browns. Then come back.

Win a game this season (you know, the present day, current day, etc.) and then you can have a seat at the table. Hell, score more than two offensive TDs in two games (while putting up almost 800 yards of offense), while you're at it.
