Yeah, I'm not trying to create two tiers of fans, have alums look down noses, or anything like that.
I'm just a recovering Houston Oilers fan, is all. Bum Phillips and Dan Pastorini and of course Earl moving the pile, but never quite getting there. Moses Malone and the Rockets almost making it, despite a losing record. And wishing for the 'stros to get some bats to match their pitching (which was never gonna happen since they played in the 'dome). The Warren Moon years. And then Bud Adams' decision. Other than Hakeem & Clyde's achievements, there weren't any championships, and suddenly "your" players are now playing for the Titans. And then my leaving that area to live in ATX and become a Longhorn. So, yeah, my interest in pro sports was replaced by all things burnt orange. Maybe some of you can relate.
