The Cowboys have the history, and there are a heckuva lot of people in the Houston area from other parts of the state. Because of that history, they've got the fans that don't live right in the Houston area. I was always a fan of the Cowboys when they weren't playing Houston until the Jerry Jones regime started. Before that, the team handled itself like Tom Landry. The arrogance really seemed to me to show up later. I guess there are a lot of Houston fans nowadays that hate the Cowboys, but they can remember the disappointment of the Ice Bowl game in Green Bay. I'm one of them. When the Texans win the big games, their fan base outside of Houston will grow. They sure didn't do anything yesterday to grow that base. All they did yesterday was raise my blood pressure.
