The Facts:
The Texans will not be playing their home opener against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night at Reliant Stadium. The game was supposed to have been played at 7:30 p.m., but Hurricane Ike has caused damage to the stadium that has made it unsuitable for hosting the game. "The facility will not be usable," said Shey Guinn, president of SMG, the company that manages Reliant Park.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Texans and Ravens will have no comment until they hear from the league. Conference calls among three are scheduled for later today. The NFL will determine where and when the Texans play the Ravens. According to Chronicle staffer John McClain, the Texans' bye week (Oct. 26) is a possibility. That would obviously cause some issues for Fantasy owners. We'll have more when a plan of action is announced.
