H-Town Down

It's a great time to be a Houston sports fan

The Astros have nowhere to go but up, and they're starting off fresh in a new League and with a new look



We've got some promising fun young guys to watch in Jose Altuve, Jed Lowrie, Justin Maxwell, Lucas Harrell and Bud Norris.



The Houston Texans are 7-1, widely commented as the best team in football, and J.J. Watt leads the league in sacks



And the ROCKETS made a deadline-blockbuster trade to bring JAMES HARDEN to town. This has been HUGE.



With Jeremy Lin and Chandler Parsons, we knew it would be fun to watch, but a rebuilding year and no shot at the playoffs. Now with Harden leading the team, dropping 40 points a night, we've suddenly become a force in the West and are looking at a 5 or 6 seed come playoff time.

And suddenly it's exciting to be a sports fan in Houston again.

  1. You're right--the Astros can only go up because their feet are firmly planted on rock bottom. I really hope the league change will be a new begining!
    Not really a Texans fan--I can't get past their name (the Houston Texans? Really?) I followed the Oilers to Tennesse, and will stick with them.
    I haven't paid much attention to the Rockets since Yao retired, but I am excited about this year!
