Got my jersey . Maryland fan here !

Been a Texans fan since inception. Always had a fascination growing up for the oiler logo and uniform combo . Used to have all the playing cards of the likes of warren moon and all the legends . Once they became the titans I was completely turned off by the name change and logo , I resorted rooting for the hometown ravens but quickly disliked the local fan base and constant perception of the team . Once the Texans became a team for Houston I thought why not , I sacrificed watching David carr become a trophy for defensive sack numbers … watched Andre Johnson get the megatron treatment , Schaub lose his psyche over night … JJ watt carry somehow an entire football team to playoff victories and important season games that gave us the opportunity to be where we were . All this culminated in one of the most fascinating years of being a Houston fan .. a home playoff game for the ravens with rookie cj stroud and Texans legend Ryan’s at the helm . What a special moment despite the loss . I knew with the wind being how it is here in Baltimore it would be tough to throw the ball , not having tank dell , 12? O lineman on IR last year , the lack of a punchy running game to get tough yards for manageable short passing downs … anyway .

Being a Houston fan in maryland has been interesting for many years. Hell even when Ed reed left the local ravens for Houston despite his performance it was still a cool moment . Yet the future is now and I’m more than excited, I’m not a super bowl or bust fan. I realize this team on paper is good but paper doesn’t win games. Excited to wear my new texans gear and finally not be called a patriot fan by ignorant local fans who see the jersey from a few feet away and assume it could only be a New England jersey .
