All I can say is that I am surprised that some of you seem to be content to be fans of a team that occasionally elevates itself to the lofty heights of mediocrity. VERY occasionally, actually.
Maybe if I used Texans football as a three hour weekly foil for my real passion - watching fat people eat purple cotton candy on the Food Network - I'd be more sanguine. Or maybe if I were a fan of another NFL team and used the Texans to guinea pig my ideas and emotions I'd be a lot less hostile to the fact that the franchise clearly has no purpose, leadership, vision or future.
But I'm not.

I hope you don't fall off of that high horse Chuck.
I am also glad you have decided not to get into all of those things...oh wait...you do...immediately after you said you wouldn't.
Your PSL and your financial committment mean nothing in regards to you verses any other fan. I am lucky to attend one game a year in person, and yet I proudly follow the team with as much committment as anyone. I feel the exact same way you do about this team and I agree it is pathetic we are at this point, and doubly pathetic that some people are ok with it.
But give us a break on the "I spend money so I am a better fan" routine.
