The term “Metroplex” is just more proof of Dallas inferiority complex. I guess it makes them feel better - and somehow superior!

If you ask me, Dallas folks have a superiority complex, not an inferiority complex. They are an arrogant bunch.

typical of inferior types, need to puff up with a sense of arrogance to make them selves feel better by trying to tear down others…pretty much sums up Dallas vs the rest of the state.

Both of my parents were born and raised in Dallas, and I was born there. My parents moved to Houston when Dad went to UH law school, fell in love with Houston and never moved back.
Mom and Dad used to always say that “You have to dress up to take out the garbage in Dallas…”

Correct…the Cowboys and Rangers play in Arlington. (Arlington Cowboys and Arlington Rangers, anyone). The Mavericks actually play in Dallas.
Yeah, and the New York Giants and New York Jets both play and have headquarters in New Jersey. The Cowboys have headquarters in Frisco, TX.
BTW, what is WHA?
World Hockey Association. Gordie Howe years with the Aeros 2 championships

World Hockey Association. A rival major professional hockey league to the NHL that sprung up in the 70s.
The original Houston Aeros with Gordon Howe won the league title twice.
It’s a shame that the original 1970s WHA Aeros folded one year too soon.
Had they lasted one more year, they might have been added to the NHL, as several other WHA teams were. Some of those teams (N.Y. Islanders, Edmonton, etc) later went on to win multiple Stanley Cups as NHL franchises. Just imagine what COULD have been!

I went to an Aeros hockey game about 10 or so years ago because a friend’s daughter was one of the dancers. I couldn’t get into it.
I miss the Aeros. Went to games in the late 90s and it was so much fun.
