With all of your talk of how long both teams have been around think about this one boy wonder. Last year alone the Titans accomplished more then the Texans organization has in its existence. A .500 season ..... Side step that one.
What's to explain? We had one of the worst head coach/GM combos in the history of the NFL as a new team with a very stingy expansion deal. Surely football history is not something a man of your stunning educational pedigree should forget...especially after only five years.
With your pride on the line for a .500 season, mediocrity is the hallmark of your franchise. Including your owner's rug.
So now Texans fans are too poor to afford seats but they sell out every game?
Far be it from me to defend Houston fans. The majority of this city are front-running bandwagon fans. There is a hardcore group of rabid Texans fans, but we are a minority. So a lot of Texans fans sold out and made a profit on a very popular game. UT fans have money and could afford the inflated prices. What can I say? It's the nature of a city with many transient people of origins outside the state.
When it comes down to it these season ticket holders are truly UT fans and the Texans get them by on Sunday, they like Vince Young more then the Texans team, or you are just full of BS and when the actual play happened you were to busy throwing up in your beer cup and having tunnel vision from regret that you could not see or hear the chears echoing through your stadium.
I don't drink, so no beer spilt on my part.
And no regret. I never wanted Young. I was a trade down for defense person, because I never bought into the Reggie Bush hype, either.
When you speak out of your assumption, you reveal your true nature, and it belies your superior educational background.
Leaders show emotion, losers accept defeat. Just me but I will take emotion and heart over a paycheck man any day of the week.
If you say so. Keep telling yourself that 100 times and it becomes your reality. (We jettisoned our paycheck man, btw.)
"Leaders show emotion"...hmmmm....that's not really supported by historical fact...so it must be a sports thing.
Let's just take football history:
I guess all that emotion is why Montana was named "Joe Cool"?
And I like the way Manning runs around our stadium after beating us, too! So much fire and emotion!
Oh wait, these guys are professionals who have let their college draft disappear into the past, so maybe my examples are not applicable.
Hopefully next year your boy can learn how to win with professionalism, because his outburst would have led me to believe he just won a big, shiny trophy. Dude is going to spoil himself if he should ever get that far...so much emotion!
And if I were lucky enough to live where my team played, I sure as h*ll would not let the mayor ship the team off over a grudge.
You have a team where you live, and one with a glorious history of actually winning something. I find it strange that someone would bandwagon outside of their hometown, especially to a team of futility. But hey, to each his own! No sweat off my back.
And really, what
exactly would you do when a billionaire owner decides to take his team and leave? Hold on to his leg? Beg him? Honestly, you would have been as powerless as the rest of us to stop him from doing what he wants (not that it matters to you, since you'll blindly follow him wherever he goes).
Am I missing something here? What the heck does your little soccer story have to do with endzone celebrations?
