But I am all Texans fan and then the Patriots after that (from Massachussetts, but arrived in Houston via Fresno the year before the Texans started and fell in love with the Texans 100x more than any team in any sport. And I haven't even started to grow bitter about a decade of losing yet. In Boston that is like an appetizer).
Funny you should mention being from Mass, because while watching the Pats-Jets game last night I told my wife, a Texas native who's lived multiple times in Boston and tells me her impression was that basketball & hockey were the big sports up there, it's a shame that such a great NFL franchise was wasted on an area that's really not a football hotbed. And before coming down here years ago, I'm from around the KC, Mo area where nothing ever compared to the popularity of the Chiefs and you know how people feel about football here.
I mean there's little doubt the Texans have aroused the most interest, the most passion, been the most popular sports team since since the other pro football team, the Oilers, and yet they've just barely sniffed some success with last years first winning record.
