The Texans can’t get home, and with flooding in Houston from Hurricane Harvey, they don’t know when they will return. The Texans are in Dallas and will practice at The Star, the Cowboys’ indoor practice facility, on Monday morning. The Texans are taking a day-by-day approach, waiting to see what happens in Houston.

They're going to play the game at AT&T. They're expecting 50 inches of rain in Houston and they've only received about 20. They won't be able to host a game by Thursday.

Poor South and East Texas... My heart goes out to them. Yes, I am donating to the Red Cross. Of course I am! Who isn't?

They might as well start planning to play Thursday's game in Arlington -- it's not going to stop raining in Houston For several more days, and the flooding will get worse.

Att stadium for sure. That rain forecast is unpredictable. Not to mention fan safety and not too mention fans busy with property damage and emotional stress. Pretty sure attending a Texans preseason game is the last thing on their mind. Maybe do a fund raiser for Houston with that game in att stadium.

The people that believe the Red Cross is government controlled/owned and the money disappears to other areas other then where it should go.

Is that practice also free for us? I'd take tomorrow off just to go troll Texans players while they practice in a heart beat. Lol.

I'm going to the afternoon Cowboys practice, regardless.

Mmmm... I can get their concerns, but what well-known organization is not compromised by larger interests? This is our reality, but they do- they do good work. I've been there. I've worked with them and they do with what they can and it's money from us that gets them the resources, no matter how allocated, to do their job.

I only care about innocent humans, who are praying and trying to stay alive til the help they hope is coming comes. I will help and advocate help for those actions to have the ability to happen.

I know and I care too but as we seen with Katrina it is more BS than we all think and know about.

I follow you, but they are an organization and those people on ground zero care more than anyone and are willing to do anything to help their fellow man and I, for one, am willing to promote them and try to give them everything possible to get what needs to be done. Even if some of it goes to fat cats and whatnot. I'd field a trip down there myself, except for the fact I know I'd cause more trouble than I'd alleviate.

Much love, brother. I know we're on the same wavelength.

Either play the game in Arlington or just scrimmage each other. I don't really care, to be honest. Houston has much bigger problems.

I'm shocked that they haven't made the decision already unless they are weighing the idea of just concealing the game entirely.

Looks like the game is coming to Jerry world. The company that hires all the AT&T stadium vendors is telling us to expect to be able to work the game.

Those poor Houston players are now going to see how awesome it is to be a Cowboy player first-hand. They won't even want to go back to their old haunts.
maybe we can swing a coup with their defense and send ours back to h town with them.

Absolutely no way this should be played in Houston. They can't spare police and emergency personnel for a freaking preseason football game when they have all the stuff going on that they do. The game should either be cancelled or moved.

I think they need to look at where the Rangers - Astros will play too. No word if it will be moved to Arlington or not.
