Good team, but it&rsquo;s always easy to have a healthful mistrust of anything swaggering out of the State of Tejas. It&rsquo;s filled with the likes of John Ross Ewing and James Richard Perry. Though that&rsquo;s stereotypical.<\/p>\n<p>Can think of only one Tejas team that was worth supporting. That was this year&rsquo;s Dalhart Maverix. That was because Miami had already declared itself a Dream Team. Had to be done. <\/p>\n<p>In short, geographical underdogs are preferred, unless the team itself is a self-proclaimed new messiah.
