Mavs and Cowboys haven't even sniffed a legit title shot in years. The Mavs title was a fluke before that you have to go back to 1999 in a sport no one in Texas cares about.
Rangers had two shots at WS and chocked on a fat one which was glorious
Really sad.

Again, lies. The Mavs were literally in the conference finals just last season.
I understand why the analytics say you go for it there, but had they kicked the FG, Dallas scores and now the Texans could have kicked the FG there at the end for a win.94chem said:jr15aggie said:
It's fair to argue both sides. But I can tell you as a Cowboys fan I was nervous when they went for it. They score and the game is over.
I much preferred them to just kick it so that we'd still have a chance.
Yep. Going for it was 100% the right call. Not really even debatable. No way I give Dallas the ball at the 25 with a 6 point lead.

My thing with analytics is that you have to have a way to factor in some sort of 'success factor' based on how good or bad your offense is. Dallas going for it on 4th and goal with their offense is not the same as the Texans going for it on 4th and goal.
I think the point that you're missing is Houston's main ambition was - how do we lose this game without it being obvious that we're losing on purpose.Macarthur said:I understand why the analytics say you go for it there, but had they kicked the FG, Dallas scores and now the Texans could have kicked the FG there at the end for a win.94chem said:jr15aggie said:

Good thing it's not baseball season, bud.
Add the Rockets and the Texans wins together and they still have less than America's team. (You can even count the tie as a win!)
Sad is being in the NFL as long as Houston has and not even one Super Bowl win. Which is glorious.girlfriend_experience said:

Texans have matched the Cowboys in Super Bowl appearances since their debut in 2002.

Why did you babies (both sides) have to ruin an otherwise really fun thread today?
Sometimes Houston teams suck and sometimes Dallas teams suck. Who ****ing cares?

BURN!!! Haha, cold blooded!DannyDuberstein said:
I did check to make sure the best player in the history of the game didn't temporarily retire in his prime in 2011 which allowed them to win
Nope, Manu Ginobli was still playing.DannyDuberstein said:

Right. I mean, I happen to think the Rockets' title runs were pretty entertaining and inspiring, but I would know when to shut my trap as a fan.DannyDuberstein said:
I mean, if I'm a Houston fan, I probably just keep my mouth shut about fluke basketball championships. Just sayin

My goodness, it's been a really long time since I've seen fans trash Houston by downplaying the Rockets championships. There's a sign we are a bunch of OGs in here.
