The Rockets won a couple of Titles, if I am not mistaken

Yes, we did. '94 and '95. And the city celebrated wildly, madly, but in a civilized fashion as the valve of pent-up, repeated sports heartbreaks was opened.

The Astros have frustrated us for years on end. Getting to the playoffs so many times only to {hack! coff! gag!} choke. Why, they did it again just last year.

Houston has never appeared in a Super Bowl or a World Series, but year after year, we faithfully hope and support. Maybe they'll do it sometime this century.

If we're lucky.

I kow the Bills have been frustrating too, but at least they've gotten to the Super Bowl. (What was it...four times in a row?)
