    The Houston Texans have what, 53 players on their roster?

    The youngest is probably 22 years old...? Most are between 25 and 35, right?

    THEY ARE NOT "KIDS". I hate that cloying, wanna-be paternalistic bull****. I can tolerate it in reference to college football, but for Chrissakes, NFL players are grown men. Calling them kids is stupid.

    Hey, at least one of them (can't remember who) apologized to Carr after calling him a kid in the first quarter. he retracted the statement saying "i'm sorry, he's not a kid, he's a man. i'm sorry david."

    i thought that was pretty classy.

    Wow, you were really looking for something to get upset about, huh?

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking. it's not really a big deal. Hard to be upset when your team wins its first ever game.

    Boselli and Glenn are 30. Everyone else on the team is under 30. That makes them the youngest team in the NFL. Relatively speaking, they are kids.
