I remember when they asked Troy Aikman if Dallas was a football town. He said " no Dallas is a winners town" he couldn't be more right. If our teams are winning, the fans show up, every game is a sellout.If they have no chance at the playoffs, people leave em for dead. I think it is a bandwagon town. Nobody better call me one tho, I've watched at least 100 games a year since 1995. Probably more than the average fan.
I have to disagree with you - The Rangers have basically sucked for 3/4 of the years they've been in existence. The Mavericks had some decent years in the 1980's and some good years the 2000's, but the 90's were awful. The Cowboys have been the most successful, but they have their share of down years lately, especially since 1995. These teams are all still in Big D and thriving. I wuold argue Dallas fans are quite loyal.

Felix is 12-19 career vs Texas. Wow...

Thank you for the info. And I had no idea it was this good. That's amazing really. Who doubts how good this guy is? And yet, he has this record against the Rangers. Truly amazing.

I agree with ya except on the friggin Cowpaddies. They have about a .500 record, with only 1 playoff win in damn near 20 years. That my friend, is beyond anything which could be considered an anomaly or drought. Jerry sucks, and it's the trickle down theory in it's finest hour.

Totally agree with you. Try getting a ticket to Cowboy home games. Hard to go to all the ranger games because of the numbers played. And many people would like to go and for many reasons can not. I suppose Mav's and Stars may be similar. Don't think many are band wagon fans.
