    Next thing you know, the NBA will input a rule that makes the step back a travel.

    Texans were up 24-0 after the 1st quarter, and then were down 28-24 by halftime...they deserve all the slander

    They really should’ve lost the 1st game against the Bills going down 16-0 in embarrassing fashion. They pulled that one out, but was all the fckery and malarkey done? Nope.

    God’s been ignoring my Houston Rockets related prayers for years

    We got one in 2017 and are still paying dearly for it to this day.

    CP3 injured and 0-27 in 2018
    Bill O'Brien playoff disappointments/chokes in 2019 and 2020 (and still Texans head coach)
    Astros lose WS in 2019 in historic fashion and get caught cheating

    Rumor has it Bill O'Brien or Tilman Fertitta is the Houston sports God and they're trying to bring the other two franchises down the drain with them. ;)

    Honestly I would take Houston sports over at least half the other sports cities in the US. I would probably guess Houston sports success of this decade to be in the top-10ish.

    Fans think we're in a bad situation because we're not like Boston and there's a champion every other year, but there are plenty of cities who would love to discuss how their teams just lost the WS/lost in the 2nd round of the NFL and NBA playoffs. To have the chance to root for a James Harden and DeShaun Watson and Justin Verlander. Fans never think any success is enough because people remember and feel more strongly towards failures than they do successes. No one remembers winning the games before the game they ultimately lost.

    And as for coverage, the Rockets always get tons of national games and the Astros always get favorable coverage in any national media and games they appear in. The Texans not so much but then what do you expect from a team that can't even make the conference finals ever.

    Dude, it’s been like this for atleast 43 years. I’ve lived thru all 43 years (im older than 43 years old) of horror. I was numb to everything in the last 24...because I lived it over and over.

    Lack of accountability and professionalism brings in all sorts of problems.

    -Warriors came back from behind to win in 2017 conference finals.

    -Nationals came back from behind to win World Series.

    -Chiefs came back after being down 0-24 to Texans to advance.

    Sigh...God, I sincerely hope you bless Houston’s heart and help teams win championship soon. We deserve happiness and excitement...we have been through a lot...
