Off Topic Old Guy Sports Rant from Grab Bag thread, cont.

Ehhhhhhh.... Yep, the Chiefs won (I lived in KS until I was 18, so I’ve been a fan a long time - pretty much mandatory if you live in Kansas). And the Houston Texans is still a dumb team name IMO.

Kansas City is in Missouri, if you'd like to know. HTH. and all that.

My wife kept calling them "Kansas" through the whole game, even though I kept telling her they're not a Kansas team. It's "Kansas City." Or "the Chiefs," or "KC." But not "Kansas." Never "Kansas." So annoying. Like calling the 49ers "San." Or the Saints "New." So annoying. It's "Kansas City.' Nothing to do with Kansas. Totally different states. Why is that so hard to understand?

And Texans is an awesome name. There's nothing better than a Texan. I should know. I've tried being the other things, and they're just not as good. Not even Ohioans, who are totally awesome, but think Tabasco is hot. They lose a lot of points for that. (If they'd learn to do Cajun, Texas BBQ, Tex-Mex, and Tru-Mex, they could totally hang.)

Anyway, when the Dallas Texans moved and forfeited the right to use the name, what were they going to call themselves, the Missourians? Nobody wants to be a Missourian. Everybody wants to be a Texan, even if they won't admit it. Even if they deny it. Even I try to deny it sometimes, but seriously, what are the alternatives?

As Jerry would say, let's drink! :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
(Enjoying that high-octane Lagavulin 12. :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:)
 
And Kansans? Don't even get me started. They won't even call themselves Kansans. They call themselves Jayhawkers or something, so people won't know they're from Kansas. Like those freakin' Hoosiers. What the hell's a Hoosier, other than a person who doesn't want to admit he's from Indiana?

I can tell. :rolleyes:

You do know that half of Kansas City is in Kansas, correct? We sure did seem to claim the chiefs as “our team” when I lived in KS.

Houston Texans is still a lazy, mundane name for a team IMO. By the way, I was born in Texas, and I live in Houston. :/

So you know what I mean, even though you won't admit it. ;););)

(Still really enjoying that Lag. 12.:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: If you love Kansas, or the Kansas side of KC, please don't take this seriously; it's just the Scotch talking.)
