I think the uniform of Houston Texas is one of the most beautifull on NFL! Never saw a game of them, tough...
 
Growing up down there, that is the most fickle sports town I've ever seen.  Of course shunning your own team for one that is winning is also fickle.  I'm quick to remind them that every Houston sports accomplishment has an * by it.  It took the Texans 10 years to make the playoffs, and a case can be made a healthy Manning would have had them at 8-8, and no playoffs.  They were swept in a World Series lead by Roger Clemens who was juicing.  It's never been proven in a court of law but refer to O.J. and Casey Anthony if a court judgement means anything.  Their 2 NBA championships were won the years Jordan didn't play though he won the 3 previous and 3 after.  All I heard last year from Texans fans was how Wade Phillips sucked.  Now he's coaching for them, its a different story.

My favorite real life Houston sports joke:
Q:  How do you get Houston to the Superbowl?
A:  Move the team to Tennessee.

meh, it's only took 10 yrs. the cowpies have sucked now for nearly 20...Do the math. I'll always be a cowboys fan, but right now I'm a houston fan... :icon_biggrin:
 
It didn't take the Cowboys 10 years into existence to make the playoffs.  For the last 16 years of Cowboy suckage, they've managed playoff appearances, a 1st round bye, and a win.  But being Cowboys fans, losing isn't acceptable.  BTW, aren't the Chiefs the DALLAS Texans?

A quote from a fickle Texans fan, "I'll be a fan as long as they keep winning."

I'll be a Cowboys fan until the day I die, and yes we are fickle. And no loosing isn't acceptable, we have a reputation to uphold..After all for phuks sake, we are "America's Team"

And yes the KC Chiefs are the orig. Dallas Cowboy's(Texans as they were known)...

And the Kansas City Chiefs are the old Dallas Texans, and Houston is still a Johnny Come Lately wannabe sports town.  ZZ Top and 13th Floor Elevator are the only good things to come out of Houston.  Their most famous celebrities are a dead newscaster (Marvin Zindler) and a furniture salesman.

I've never liked the phrase "America's Team".  It's the example of repeating a lie so much, everyone believes it.  I like the Stones very much, but I don't believe they're the world's best rock n roll band, nor do I believe MJ is the King of Pop.

And the Kansas City Chiefs are not the original Dallas Cowboys, they were the Texans.  Both teams cohabitated the Cotton Bowl.  The Texans had a better win percentage and drew more people, but the NFL would not grant Lamar Hunt an expansion franchise in Dallas because the Cowboys were already here.

Well the KC Chief's franchise isn't, true. But the "original" Dallas Texans actually came from New York in 1951 and folded in '52 and were NFL. Then in 1960, the league made a second venture into Dallas and established what would become a more successful team, the Dallas Cowboys. Also in that year, the American Football League began with its own Dallas Texans; that team moved after winning the 1962 AFL Championship and became the Kansas City Chiefs. The "Texans" name has since been revived by the NFL for the current Houston Texans, which started play in 2002.

And the term "America's Team" was coined by an announcer, not from us here in Texas. And it's not saying the Cowboy's are  the "best" just the most popular team, and according to NFL.com the Cowboy's are the most popular team, at least the last 5 yrs running..

Doug, who are you fan of now?  1 playoff win, out in the 2nd round?  Hell, the Cowboys did that 2 years ago.
Well it ain't the Ravens, I'll tell you that...Imma go with the Patriots... :icon_biggrin:
 
Definitely the Patriots. That way I can at least say my Broncos got the shit beat out of them by the Super Bowl champs.
