They still love football in Texas, perhaps as much as any place on the planet.
But they may not love it in quite the same way as they used to.
According to a University of Texas/Texas Tribune Poll, nearly half of the state’s registered voters have an unfavorable opinion of the NFL in particular.
The NFL drew an unfavorable opinion from 47 percent of voters (including 28 percent who went all the way to “very unfavorable”), while 27 percent had a favorable opinion of the league. The survey included 1,200 registered voters and was conducted from June 8-17, and has a margin of error of less than 3 percent.

Of course they blame it all on the "hoopla" going on....But what they don't realize is a lot of these football fans don't like Jerry Jones....And even Bob McNair made some unpopular comments......And when was the last time the Cowboys won a Super Bowl(a lot of their fans are band wagon jumpers you dont bring in the trophies they do lose interest)....and the Texans haven't come near the Super Bowl either...If it wasn't for JJ Watt there would be a WHOLE LOT LESS interest......
And why wasn't I asked to compete the poll!!!!!
