That looks pretty cool..really tempted to steal that avatar...
Yeah, but unlike others...I'm just keeping it old school.
Resurrecting the old Clutch City spirits to wreak havoc upon our opponents.
Time to clinch playoffs.
Not feeling Clutch City. Too many negative connotations. Like Rockets and stuff.
Didn't they win a couple of Championships with that name? How's that negative connotation?
Speaking of Championships though... does anyone think we're a little premature wanting to name our defense? We haven't won a division championship yet much less a conference or league championship.

Clutch City is a nickname given to the city of Houston, Texas after the Houston Rockets won two NBA Championships in 1994 and 1995. The name was given as a response to a front-page headline by The Houston Chronicle declaring Houston as "Choke City," It also refers to the clutch performance showed by the Rockets during their championship years.
------------------------------
The Rockets recovered from being two games down to the Phoenix Suns in the second round of the playoffs, to advance to the finals. Houston once again went down by three games to two to the New York Knicks, but they managed to win the last two games on their home court, and claim their first championship in franchise history.

I always thought the term "Clutch City" as it related to the Rockets was because they were put into positions where they had to win games or their season was over.
And those plays came at the last second.

With us being down to our third QB, and still winning and having a chance to clinch playoffs, I dont think it's too far out to suggest we can borrow some positive history from the only Houston pro team to have won a championship.
It's nostalgia (in my mind). We had Stros in the WS but got humiliated by getting swept in 4. So bringing back the only positive vibe we've had (Clutch City) doesn't have to be over analyzed.
Clutch City indicates preseverance and being clutch when it counts. Sounds like the 2011 Texans to me.

I'm with you GP, I like Clutch City a lot better than Bulls on Parade.
I just thought we were talking about the origin of "Clutch City"

With the rash of injuries this team has suffered we should be called Crutch City
Dynamo won two back-to-back mls cups
I think a bump is in order here, don't you?
Clutch. City.
It's back...
Do we need to use basketball fanisms ..... these guys deserve their own footballisms, we just need to get creative.
