What the hell is everyone so upset about?

So Jerry Jones apparently made some sort of statement about something:

"The Cowboys have never been about checkered tablecloths and boots and hats," Jones says. "They've been about glitz and glitter. Leave the other stuff to the Houston Texans."

You know, he's right. And it's an accurate description of the difference between Dallas and Houston.

Dallas is a city of hicks with money. More money than they know what to do with, in fact. And, thus, they spend their money as you'd expect a bunch of hicks with money to spend - rented BMW's, crappy "designer" shit, etc. And the Jerry Dome.

Houston is more working class. The "checkered tablecloths and boots and hats" and all that crap are a reflection of our nature. It's better than being a bunch of fake assholes. We're a city of working people - rednecks, immigrants, and executives. It's a great place.

But here's the kicker: we're more sophisticated than they are. All the things that makes a city "sophisticated" - the arts, universities, museums, etc. - better in Houston than they are in Dallas. We have a better symphony, opera, art museums, all that crap. Our universities are clearly superior - Rice beats SMU (no fucking shit), and Cougar High is a legitimate institution and the superior of UNT. We're just better with how we spend our money.

So the old claim that Dallas was somehow more "cultured" is false, too. So, if you're scoring at home, points go to Houston for culture, diversity, economy, politics, baseball, basketball, football players who aren't rapists, and history. Oh, and soccer. Dallas gets points for hockey (who cares?) and football teams made up of felons.

Seriously, thank you Jerry. Thank you for pointing out that Houston is better than Dallas. Texans didn't really need reminding of that fact, but all those Yankees might need to be updated on the situation (as it has stood for the last thirty years).

Oh, and fuck Dallas for just reinforcing the typical Texas stereotype. Go to fucking hell, you stupid assholes. Fuck Dallas.
