Houston Fans: Classless - Dallas Cowboys Forum

HTownCowboysFan · 08-15-2004

I went to the game last night, and I can honestly say that I have never seen a bigger bunch of classless morons in my life.

Of course, I've yet to attend a game in Philly.

I was constantly "F-YOU'd" during the entire game just for being a Cowboys fan. And any time the Texans did anything positive--and I mean anything--these fools would go off and get into the closest Cowboy fan's face. And if I had a dollar for every time I heard "19-10," I'd be able to buy the team from Jerry Jones.

Speaking of Jerry, what's the obsession with him with Houston fan? You would have thought Bud Adams now owned the Cowboys. To breakout in a stadium-wide taunt of Jerry at the end of the game was another example of how classless this outfit is.

People had shirts on that said "If Dallas is America's Team, I want to be Canadian!" And of course the 'ol standard, "DALLAS SUCKS!" shirts were on hand.

You would have actually thought that this was a playoff game for these fools.

Living in Houston, I knew Cowboys hate was strong, but I have never witnessed it so concentrated. The level of jealousy and envy for the Cowboys is hard to put into words. Frankly, it is laughable and pathetic.

I've got bad news for Houston fans: as a Canadian myself, I feel fairly confident in saying that the Cowboys are not just America's Team; they're also North America's Team.

I think you're selling our group here at the Zone a little short.

Philly fans are beyond descrption...been there once...never again.

And Jet fans haven't exactly thrilled me either.

On the other hand, I have been to two games in Texas Stadium...and I have watched Redskin fans there actually treated well...picked on but in a good natured way.

You got that right.

HTown, funny post.

The ragging on Jerry even made the press. What's up with that?

Some concern five years from now Henson will be referred to as "the one who got away?"

It is kind of a surprise that most feel that way. After all, the Cowboys are still located in Texas.
I didn't get to attend the first meeting between Dallas and Carolina but I heard of alot of the same thing. One woman was quoted as saying that a big guy actually wanted to fight her for being a Cowboy fan and that as she was attempting to drive home, someone snatched her antenna flag off and ran. The law caught the guy and she did file charges.

People have told me over the years that they hate the Cowboys because they are tired of them winning all of the time. So to add fuel to the fire, my reply is, "So you hate them because your team hasn't won a Super Bowl yet?"
As my signature line says, five outta eight ain't bad.

On a positive note, there were A LOT of Cowboys fans at the game last night. I think that is part of the cause of the hatred--the fact that there is a huge Cowboys fanbase in Houston.

And their tailgating set up is really nice. Huge numbers of tailgaters. I'll give 'em props for that. I wish we'd do something like that at TX Stadium.

I guess they don't realize how insane this Cowboys hate looks to Cowboys fans. And they refuse to accept the fact that there is no rilvary.

It is really sad. I wanted to go to the preseason game in Houston but I knew it would be better of me not to. I have a really bad temper and I Houston fans press my buttons for some reason.

The funny thing is that they think Cowboys fans are the jealous ones. One friend of mine casually follows the Texans and she gets upset if I bring up the hate of Texan fans. For some reason, I am the one who hates on the Texans if I bring up how insane the hate for the Cowboys is down there. I mentioned to her that it was classless and immature of the Texans to put that video on their web site and I was the one being classless for talking about it.

It's not just pro teams. College teams' fans may be even worse. I rarely go to the stadium any more. The fun of the live game is usually spoiled by the jerks, drunks and degenerates anyway.

There are a lot of Cowboy's fans here in Houston. The Texan's fans have a Napolean complex.

HUH? That's weird i always thought that Houston fans kinda were former Cowboys fans because they didn't have a football team there for awhile. Now that they have one they hate us?

Tricked · 08-15-2004

try going to the raiders stadium when the cowboys are in town, i went there twice... and i wore my emmitt jersey and everytime they'd hand him the ball they'd start chanting "break his leg! break his leg!" i got in a few fights at that one, woulda been a blast had we won.. i'd do it again just to piss em off

Why do you let it bother you so much? You should actually be happy the Texans are looking better, it's good for your town.

I think it's great that they're starting their organization out with a solid foundation of hate and envy - it's the stuff of a prosperous future.

Desperate fans are great! Remember that win over Washington in 1989!? That was a great win! We were 3-1 during that preseason!!!

I am not from Houston but my wife is and I attended college at Sam Houston State University about an hour outside Houston. There are a lot of Houston fans back there but a lot of Cowboy fans to.

After being in this area for about 11 years now I finally figured out why Texans fans hate us so much.

1st while there great teams where melting down under pressure in the playoffs we where winning superbowls. They come to hate the Cowboys because they have envy of our team.

There team left the city and even though they have a new one they are jealous of everything we stand for. There team is always overlooked and never even mentioned half the time in years past.

They are the ignored bastage child of Texas pro football and they know it.

They are jealous of America teams and the winning associated with the teams while they are know for the Buffalo meltdown.

They are petty jealous and envious of the Cowboys period end of story.

You say 5 rings buddy and they say that is the past; yet they yell 19-10 even thought it is in the past. Shows that they know how stupid their argument is they just have no other comeback.
