Thread: Houston Game

Anyone else going to Houston to watch the vikes? I am so lucky to be going... reliant stadium is supposed to be amazing.

Thats awesome Italian. You gonna fly or are you gonna take the amazing long drive by car.

What made you decide to go to that game its so much further. You could have tried to catch them at home or at another nfc north rival it would a lot shorter of a journey. Either way Thats sweet man have fun and cheer loud.

It's a f#$king far way, but it is impossible to get tickets "easily" to the Packers or Vikings. I used to go to Seattle, but they are not hosting the vikings this year. I'm Flying luckily. What better way to spend thanksgiving but watching a viking game.

Thinking of making the trip with Chuck Foreman this year.

Do you really know Mr. Foreman?

Yep. He's a very close personal friend of mine. Lives about 2 minutes up the street and I see him about 4-5 times a week and speak to him almost daily. I do PR for him as well. His son Jay is a LB for the Texans. Here's a pic of Chuck and my son at my house ( long hair like his old man lol ) in June at my sons 8th B-day.

Fantastic! You know, he is my all time favorite Viking, favorite fooball player of any team really.
I didn't even realize Jay was with an NFL team although I remember seeing him play in college.
Chuck was an amazing talent and a very cool player to watch.
I idolized him as well as many other Vikings like Alan Page, Carl Eller, John Gilliam, Sammy White, Ahmad Rashad, Matt Blair and of course ... Fran Tarkenton. Chuck though was my all time fave. I remember when I played football in 8th grade and then high school, always trying to emulate his moves
How is he these days? Thanks for posting the pic!

He's doing very well. He's doing a pregame show with KFAN up here before Vikes home games. Taking good care of himself as well. Does alot of appearances. Doing the Ryder cup this week http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/040901/dew032_1.html in fact. Yeah Jay's in his 6th year already. 3 in Buffalo and 3rd now in Houston. Had over 100 tackles each of the past 2 seasons. His website is still being finished up and should be done by the end of the week, but take a look at it. It's http://chuckforeman44.com

Thanks Jeff. I'll have to listen to the pre-game shows online.
Site looks good. I WANT A #44 JERSEY OR A HELMET!
E-mail me sometime if you please.

Hey, I know a team right now that could use Jay's skills at linebacker:
The Minnesota Vikings!

Yeah they spoke with him before his new contract with Houston but they were REALLY tight with the $$. It'd be awesome to see Jay playing with Minnesota. It's really weird to watch a Vikings game with Chuck and have him be cheering against the Vikes. lol
