Dallas Cowboys/Houston Texans

[Liam]

Ok....this is mainly for you Texans fans (Michelle...I don't think there are any others on here. ). Why are they trying to make a rivalry with the Cowboys? Don't we have enough problems with having the rest of our division PLUS having a couple of rivalries with the AFC with the Dolphins and the Steelers? If ANYTHING...I think y'all should concentrate on the Titans. After all...they took the original Houston team. Just a thought.
ANYHOO...just curious. If anyone else can answer this...please feel free to do so.

Well, I think part of it has to do with the general rivalry between the 2 cities. Plus, I think Bob McNair kind of set things up with the Texans to have more games with the Cowboys than the Oilers did. I mean, their very first game was against the Cowboys, and how did that one come out?? (J/K - you know I love ya!) Anyway, there is a rivalry with the Titans for the very reasons you stated. Also, games against Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay usually rev the fans up pretty good, too. The team is young, so I think there are still more rivalries to grow and develop. Those are just the ones I see now. Just my 2 cents.

P.S. They are ahead of Cleveland right now. Yea!!!

Ok...I can accept that. After all....do you see the intensity of the Cowboys/Redskins rivalry that ya did in the 70's/80's? It's more the Eagles for us now. Don't get me wrong...I still don't like 'em...but I can stand the 'Skins fans more that I can the Eagles. I'm not a Texans fan...but I don't HATE 'em.
Don't worry though...the Texans will gain some BIG rivalries in the AFC...ESPECIALLY in the south. I see the Jags being one in the next few years for some reason. Maybe it's because they're a rather young team as well.

ONE MORE THING, Baby....GO CLEVELAND.

Ahem. My football knowledge is limited and I essentially go where "my" quarterback happens to be and at the moment I am a Browns fan due to them signing Brady Quinn, so if you all are able to see the game I am totally jealous.

I'm stuck with my NFL radio pass and gametracker.

Which has nothing to do with Liam's question, but I just felt the need to say:

GO BROWNS!

GO CLEVELAND.

Fuck Cleveland and their lucky ass kicker.

We've always had a natural rivalry with the team in Houston. The governors cup game in preseason. That's all they get!

I just gotta ruffle Michelle's feathers during this game. They're fighting for the W/C race right now...but honestly...I don't care who wins.

GO CLEVELAND.

THAT was one weird situation! I've never seen a football cross over and then bounce back into the field. I was like, "what the hell"?

GO CLEVELAND.

LOL Niggy!!! I don't hate Cleveland, particularly, just want to see the Texans be 6-5. I think I would faint if that happened. The fact that they are .500 right now is amazing!

GO CLEVELAND.

Fuck Cleveland and their lucky ass kicker.

I remember a few weeks ago they were at about a .200. The good ole' days. Love ya dear.

GO CLEVELAND.

No, fuck Baltimore and their anemic offense. There is no luck when the ball goes over the crossbar.

Brady Quinn is a qb? Funny, I haven't seen that Notre Dame loser play a single second yet this year.

I know. So much for .500.... Speaking of the W/C, I heard one of our sports reporters mention the Texans and the playoffs in the same sentence I did a triple take. Couldn't even hope for that...
