And that makes sense because people here in Houston absolutely LOVE the teams from Dallas and San Antonio.

Heck, I bet at least 0.02% of Houston residents can name one player from the Dallas Stars. And with Dallas just a quick 4 to 5 hour drive away, people here really feel involved with them.

I'm just surprised that Canada was completely left out of the NHL playoffs this year. I figured that, at least, Montreal with their large French-speaking population would make the playoffs because of the Paris attacks. But the script-writers are obviously more concerned about a half-dozen or so people getting shot in a church in rural North Carolina. Makes sense.

That, and the 2 people that we're shot at the Air Force Base in San Antonio (the REAL reason Houston got the Final Four and Super Bowl 51).
