New ways to lose

Posted on December 12, 2005 by Charles Kuffner

You have to admit, the Texans do have more entertainment value than your ordinary 1-12 team. They give you a reason to tune in every week, and that reason is to find out what new way to lose they’ll use. Any other team, given new life by a defensive penalty at the end of a kickoff return that was just long enough to run out the clock, would kick the prosaic tying field goal and send the game into a tedious overtime period. Not our boys, who did their best to ensure that the rest of KHOU’s Sunday schedule would run on time. Say what you want about every other aspect of their game, the Texans are efficient and innovative when it comes to losing.

    Eh, maybe not ANY other team. The Giants topped this week’s Texans effort a few weeks ago, in their fiasco against Seattle. The Texans can’t even come up with the BEST ways to lose games in this dismal season. But we can at least credit them for trying. 🙂
