Sorry ketch. I thought my comments answered your question.
Let me be specific. No, I have never heard you discuss the Cowboys. Not in person. You are correct. I have never had the pleasure of pmeeting you.
However , I have been reading your '10 thoughts" for years. There can be no doubt that you have spent FAR more time discussing the Cowboys than the Texans.
Reading over the years consistently shows a MUCH greater focus on the Cowboys than the Texans.
I also get the strong sense that the comments on the Texans are afterthoughts. Then the comments in today's 10 thoughts just cemented that view.
So, I believe my comments still stand.
I am just asking you to recognize that not everybody cares about the Cowboys. If you are going to talk so much about them or focus so much on them each week on a site dedicated to the Longhorns, please try at least to give equal time to the Texans. Maybe, every once in a while you can talk about them first instead of just as an afterthought.
Some honest introspection would really be appreciated.
a. My point is that you've tried to paint me as some sort of Cowboys homer when you'll find that I'm as reasonable and realistic as anyone can be with their team. I always assume the worst with Dallas.. always. If you've read me talk about the Cowboys, you'd have to know that.
b. I spend time talking more about the Cowboys than the Texans for two reasons. First, more people care about the Cowboys. You don't have to like it, but it's the truth. Second, I do care more about Dallas than the Texans and I write about things I care about. I do try to write about the Texans in an effort to please the Texans. I write about how great JJ Watt is. Same with Deandre Hopkins, who I have said all season is a better player than Dez Bryant.
c. The Texans aren't really all that good, they just play on the right division that is rewarding average play. There's no getting around that. I don't know that I find their season all that interesting and there's a good chance that they are one and done as soon as the playoffs start. Regardless, this is not a true Super Bowl contending team, which means I can only write the same thing about this team so many times.
d. You're complaining about how much love I give Dallas, but I barely mentioned the team this week other than a slam about how boring its game was. You might not have liked what I wrote, but I gave the Texans an entire section and did not do that for the Cowboys.
Your emotions on this subject have clouded that gigantic piece of irony.
"Maybe, every once in a while you can talk about them first instead of just as an afterthought."
What Dallas was this weekend was an afterthought... what Houston received was some focus for an entire section. It just so happens that THE story right now is the play of a Dallas castoff at quarterback.
e. Some honest introspection would really be appreciated, indeed.
