    Simple poll. Simple question. Which of the big three are going to win a major sports championship for our beautiful city in the coming years?

    I say 'Stros.

    I'll say Astros. With a very younger core, they're already good enough to make the playoffs in baseball...and that's all it takes. Just have to get hot at the right time.

    I wanted to vote Astros, but we need more consistency in the bullpen, and Dallas Keuchel hasn't been dominant so far.

    Texans have a great defense, they just need Brock to be above average to compete for a championship.

    If only Rockets would have stopped kicking cans and invested in studs like Brooks, Budinger, and DMo they'd have won by now.

    Rockets because that's the only team playing a real sport from your list.

    The other two teams fatties could probably win a hot dog eating title.

    Astros, then probably Texans... Haha, Rockets are a cluster **** atm... Obviously offseason/FAs could change that, but... If this season or next season signings don't go well, lotto time!!

    Astros are playing like the best team in baseball. Too bad so are the rangers.

    I actually expect the Texans to win next. It's probably easier to win the Superbowl than the other championships because it's only one game, and the Texans have stellar defense.

    I think it goes Astros, Rockets, Texans

    Rockets hit a rough spot due to poor dietary guidelines, but they still have a good front office. Texans have some stud players but the front office will screw it up.

    You're smoking something fierce if you are putting the rockets above the texans.

    Texans were 9-7 last year and lost in the first round. Rockets were 41-41 and lost in the first round.

    Texans front office is pretty terrible.

    I picked Astros but it's really difficult to predict considering we have a completely new offensive core with the Texans. At least with the Astros we know what we have, a young team with a lot of potential.

    I don't egg ball and both front offices are terrible but Rockets have a star in Harden as opposed to Texans who have zero stars or good players.
