Jeff Luhnow is just jealous because he doesn’t have the budget to spend like a drunken sailor.

Houston needs to start spending on any young talent period and the pressure is on him with a 2.5x allotment increase allowed to them, as to how much they spent in 2011 in the 2012 draft.
Doubt Texas will return the jab at him, but he knows the pressure is all on him and the fanbase knows the draft/expenditures track record of the previous ownership.

You have to wonder where that old cliche statement even came from.. “drunken sailors”.. Maybe from 17-18th century and when ships almost never came into port?
Even when I was in the USN and 1 ship was out to see for 90 days before coming in, most of the crew IMO didn’t go out and get toasted (a sub tender btw) and that was at the time one of the places (subic bay, Philippines) where the local population made most of it’s money from the military.
Anyway.. One of those nearly meaningless terms of speech that must have been true centuries ago.

Sailors take offense to this comment. They can’t spend like the Rangers can.
