It seems like it would be a massive distraction and I hope the Texans don't do it.

The Texans are one of three teams still being considered and are considered favorites. Bills and Redskins are the other two.

Said earlier that the preseason game with the Saints has the Katrina angle to it... made for a tv show like Hard Knocks.

Seems the Bills and Redskins want out, so the Texans may be the pick this season.

Redskins:

A team source said the Redskins did not want to appear on the show – a stance they have long taken – and were not one of the finalists.

Bills:

Bills source confirms that the team is still not interested in doing Hard Knocks this summer.

I wonder how many teams would beg out of this if there were some legit cash compensation for the hassle? Would think cash-poor teams like the Bills and attention-loving teams like the Redskins would whore themselves out if that were the case.

Yep, been hearing this on the radio (Texans are the favorites).

I don't think the Texans want it but if the NFL points the bony finger in their direction, they have to accept. Gotta say if they get it, I'll be glued to the tube for every episode....

Me too, love to watch more on Texans.

Except, I don't want to see when they cut players. Just show me who made it.

I think it would become The J.J. Watt Show. He's starting to become something of an attention whore. We can learn just how foul-mouthed Bill O'Brien is and we will find out stuff the rest of us would really rather not know like which players like to pee in the shower, which one pukes before his first pre-season game, which players talk smack incessantly to hide an inner insecurity and how much hazing goes on to rookies.
