We have the lowest amount of replys... is this for lack of fans support? ... I dont think thats the reason , but it makes us look bad.

They shortened the rounds to 10 mins a pick and "day 1" is only two rounds instead of 3. They started it a bit later in the day so that teams have all morning to finalize their trades and negotiations right before the bell rings. The first round should go by quite a bit faster than in the past.

Because the draft has become a hot TV property and it moves the first round into the prime afternoon sports slot.

TV money can dictate whatever it wants.

Does anyone know a link that I can connect to on my laptop to "WATCH" the draft? I don't want radio if possible. I want to hook into ESPN if possible but I cannot find a website for that... Thanks in advance... :D

It's not due to fan support. I would say it's more in line with the fact that the Texans have not won more than 8 games in 7 seasons.

The Cleveland Browns were able to manage getting over .500 in 4 seasons, Jacksonville and Carolina managed to get to their conference championship games after 3 seasons. Hell, even the Buccaneers and Seahawks managed to get over .500 after 4 and 3 seasons, respectively.

I guess it's true what they say, If you pick the wrong player (esp. QB) # 1 overall, It'll mess you up for half a decade. Hopefully we can turn the corner and get respect.

That has nothing to do with us going in our war room. We now have over 1000 post but are well below the rest of the teams... click on the link you will see what I mean.

We do not look bad as a fan base just because we don't post on a message board for the draft... Jeezus!!!

It doesn't matter if THEY know we are strong fans, because WE know that we are strong fans.

It could be that no one really gives a **** and has BETTER things to do on a Saturday night. Me personally, I'm not in Houston so I really have nothing better to do and MOST fans are on their teams website. NOT NFL.com
