If you team wins in preseason football it's a sign of great things to come.  If your team loses, well, "No biggie.  It's just the preseason." Should we be more excited about the Cowboys or Texans right now?

Former Houston Texans wide receiver JaJuan Dawson fell into Lake Lavon on Sunday and hasn't been seen since, but the search continues.

This is a huge weekend for football fans. It's opening weekend for the NFL (after last night's kickoff between the Packers and Seahawks), there are big college games already and it's only the second week of the season, and just cuz!  Football fans don't need huge games to sit in the recliner and enjoy a bucket of wings.  We just love football.

In Major League Baseball, the Texas Rangers and LA Dodgers have made headlines over the past couple of seasons for their enormous hot dogs. Over-the-top grub is almost as much a part of the game now as the ball is!  The dogs and piles of nachos are so big they have to be shared.  Unless you're really hungry and brave. Have you heard what the Green Bay Packers are doing now?

Anyone else ready for the NFL season to start?  Every time our favorite teams win a preseason game we're convinced our team is great and in good shape for the regular season.  If they lose a preseason game we say, "oh well, it's just the preseason!" The games don't count, but it is fun to watch guys try to make the team and catch a glimpse of the team as it takes shape. There is one expe

Fans of the Houston Texans started out this NFL season started out feeling pretty optimistic after the team won its first two games, but then the rest of the season happened.  Fans were confident right up until the point that they weren't anymore!

Cowboys' fans are happy today!  Dallas managed a 36-31 win over the Giants on Sunday Night Football. The Texans play in the late game of tonight's Monday Night Football double header.  It's Texans and Chargers from San Diego.  Houston will win that one, right? The experts say if our teams don't win, we eat more junk food the next day.  So if you gain a lot of weight this football season, your team

Another NFL Draft is behind us, and today will be one of those days at work where perhaps the biggest football fans spend a little water cooler time breaking down the hits and misses. It's fun to rip to shreds the hopes and dreams of the newest NFL players, by labeling them "bust" right from the start isn't it?  I kid!  But Dallas Cowboy fans especially, seem to heartily enjoy picking ap

Ahead of Sunday's big football game, New York University PhD candidate, Sean Taylor, has published a new map based on Facebook figures that show a surprising social and geographical breakdown of NFL fans.  The map is color-coded to show which states love which teams.  Not so surprising, is the fact that Texas is predominantly blue and loves its Cowboys.   There is a pocket of red around Houston th

So, the "Boys" failed to make the playoffs, and per the usual outtakes, Jerry Jones is manifesting a witch hunt to demonize those he feels most responsible for a lackluster 2012 campaign. Yesterday, he fired defensive coordinator Rob Ryan, while he was sipping umbrella drinks on a beach in the Caicos Islands.  Nothing new here.  Personally, I would like to see the team operate without Jo

If you're a football fan, you know that the Houston Texans had a shot at the #1 seed in the playoffs, which would have given them a week off to rest and await their next opponent. But they lost to the Colts yesterday, and the cards fell in a way that drops them to the #3 seed, meaning they have to play this weekend. And oh, those Cowboys...what happened this season. Cowboy fans are in a funk tod

Texans QB Matt Schaub was hit so hard Sunday it knocked his helmet off, and with that came part of his ear. Ouch! It turned out to be an illegal hit (darn Bronco!), and Schaub lost part of his ear lobe.
