I'm sorry for being off topic, but no one really mentions how incredible Gus Johnson is when it comes to being a commentator. This guy can get me off my seats whenever he's the commentator for the Texans game. I like his enthusiasm, excitement and emotion for the game. If you watch the game again, you could feel this guy excitement toward Andre Johnson. On every catch Andre Johnson made. Gus would say something like no other commentator dare to say. e.i "INCREDIBLE, EXTRAORDINARY, UNIMAGINABLE, UNTHINKABLE, PHENOMENAL, and etc." Man, I hope the Texans/CBS make Gus the lead commentator for every single game next year, except when it's televise on FOX.

I could've swore that if they showed a shot of the commentator booth, we would've saw Steve Tasker wearing a Lendale White jersey or something, with one of those Freakazoid flame heads Titan fans wear.
I always turn the sound off and just watch. No need to listen to all that suff they put out.

I was annoyed with Gus Johnson last year during the Carolina game when it seemed he was completely biased against us, but after listening to more of his games (last season and this year) he just gets excited over good football. I've come to enjoy listening to him, although I'm usually talking over the TV ;)

Gus was real enthusiastic over everything Andre did yesterday. Steve Tasker is a joke as a broadcaster. He was a nice special teams player but not cutting it up in the booth on gameday!

I liked the look on Schaubs face after the 4th quarter throw over Failagain.
Dude looked fierce.

I'm thinking that image might be my new background going into the 2009 season (I change it every year.)
David Anderson just might be Steve Tasker's little brother.

I did notice yesterday the announcers didn't seem biased toward the other team. Those guys last week were making me sick.

Those biased guys last week were Gus Johnson and Steve Tasker. IMO one of the worst duos in the league and the reason why CBS pawns them off on us lowely Texans. Gus' enthusiasm is just plain annoying and I usually mute him.
They are annoying. Tasker was riding the Titans jock pretty hard. It got on my danged nerves. I wish I lived in H-Town I would mute the TV and turn the radio on for commentary. "Rock and Roll Touchdown Texans!" I love that!
Can someone link a pic of Schaub's face
