Watching my Houston Texans snatch defeat from the jaws of certain victory again today has me in a melancholy mood.
Being a Houston sports fan is a tough gig. Houston teams have a long history of sports torture. The Oilers losing those AFC Championships to the Steelers, and then the Comeback by Buffalo. The Astros losing the NLCS after a sure chance to wrap it up, and more recently being swept in the Series. Now the Texans and their continuing ineptitude. Only the Rockets gave us any glory, and that was a brief run of just two years.
At least the Cougars won last night though.
