Texans' J.J. Watt and Arian Foster will be featured in GQ magazine

Superstars J.J. Watt and Arian Foster are perfect examples of how much the Texans have increased their popularity over the past couple years.

The duo is featured in the September NFL Kickoff issue of GQ, which describes 38 things that are making the NFL the most exciting it's ever been.

In the article on Foster, the magazine lists 10 reasons why the three-time Pro Bowler is GQ's favorite running back in the game.

In the Watt feature, which is titled "Big Tex", the defensive end talks about his rise from pizza delivery man to stardom and the NFL's 2012 Defensive Player of the Year.

Nice to see some positive stories coming out of professional sports.

Arian Foster to appear on Hawaii Five-0

Following in the footsteps of MLB player Shane Victorino, Houston Texans running back, Arian Foster will be appearing on an episode of CBS crime drama Hawaii Five-0.

Houston Texans running back Arian Foster is scheduled to appear on an episode of Hawaii Five-0 on Monday, Feb. 18 at 10 p.m. ET on the CBS Television Network. The episode appropriately is titled -- Pa'ani or Hawaiian for “The Game.”

I don't know how Foster will do in his acting debut, but hopefully he'll have more than a bit part. I'm anxious to see how he stacks up against the great gridiron actors of years past such as Bubba Smith, O.J. Simpson,  Fred Dryer and Jim Brown.

Maybe this could be a career for Foster after his playing days are over.
