    Some of my obnoxious Dallas area friends are bragging b/c Dallas is beating Houston on questions 1 and 7. Time to rock the vote!! Just yesterday the Rockets and Hakeem were winning in these two poll questions.

    http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/sportsnation/fiftyfifty/polling?event_id=1456

    1) Most memorable sports moment?


    39.9% Dallas Cowboys beats Pittsburgh in Super Bowl XXX, fifth overall and third in four years (1996)

    39.7% Houston Rockets win Games 6 and 7 vs. Knicks to win NBA Finals and city's first title in any sport (1994)

    7) Best in-state pro career?


    37.5% Emmitt Smith, Dallas Cowboys

    36.1% Hakeem Olajuwon, Houston Rockets

    The fact that the best homegrown athlete is Babe Didrikson Zaharias (track, golf) right now, and winning with 46.6% of the vote tells me this thing is rigged all over the place.

    Hmmmm. I guess it's just a coincidence that Texas Western used to be the name of another school. A school which is now part of a certain poster's signature. Now, what might that school be????? Could it be....

    UTEP??????
