Wife Not a Happy Camper!

Well ya see my wife Pat is a true blue Dallas Cowboy fan as she was born in Odessa, Texas! Well last night they had the Dallas Cowboys vs Houston Texans and the expansion team beat her beloved Cowboys 19-10!
She has not got out of bed yet but I don't know if I want to be in the same apartment with her when she rises! I kinda gave her some grief that if the Cowboys could not beat an expansion team(which at the time the Texans were ahead 10-0) they should go across the border to Mexico!
This may not be a good thing! Johnny

LOL Johnny; haven't you learned yet? When dealing with a Texan, don't ever disparage their mother, their state or the Cowboys....and not necessarily in that order!

I apologize to any Texans who are offended by this, I'm only going from my own personal experience with a few very fine old Texan families. "The Alamo? Isn't that a car rental place?"

Two words: HA HA

The Texans went out and beat them fair and square. When you live in Texas you were either a Cowboys Fan or an Oilers Fan....one or the other...

I just happen to come from the right side of the tracks. Woohooo that game deserves a new avatar!

I lived in Thousand Oaks CA for years while the 'Boys practiced at CLU so I have a natural bias for Dallas. Sunday was a sad night at my house, Cowboys downed by an expansion team, and the Dodgers beaten by the Astros.

btw, fwiw, ime etc. Tony Dorsett, not a friendly guy. Tom Landry, always smiled for the kids when giving autographs.

The Redskins and whoever is playing Dallas!!!

Made my day!!

Tom Landry smiled??

I only saw him on TV, when he was coaching, and I think I remember seeing him smile once; all business!

Back in the hey-days...when Dallas was the big gun to shoot for and the Raiders were still in Oakland

Best of luck Johnnie.
Being from Tulsa, All we would hear is (How Bout Them Cowboys) I have to admit I learned to hate that.. The other thing I don't care for is the part of Oklahoma that lies South of the Red River.. And to be honest I don't think the Texans care to much for the part of the state above the Red River.. P.S. I would not show this post to the wife..

GO Pats!

While you Texans fight over which team will have the worste record in the NFL, we'll bring home another Super Bowl.
