If Texas Secedes, they won't be "America's Team"

Hey, if Texas actually does secede from the US, then the stinkin' Cowboys will no longer be dubbed "America's Team." That might be a favorable side-effect!

True, but if any state could succeed on its own, it's Texas.

The Yankees won the civil war and it wasn't by luck. Ya'herd?

Honestly though, I like the Cowboys rivalry.

Wow I'm shocked? The richest conservative state in the country isn't happy that their oil buddies aren't running the show in Washington anymore(the same people who put us in this mess) and now they are threatening to secede when they don't like how the new government is trying to fix this awful mess. Good luck with that Texas.


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAAH!!!

Re: If Texas Secedes, they won't be "America's Team"

Secession was feasible during the Civil War era when everyone had muskets that could fire an unaccurate bullet once every 4 and half minutes. To think of a state seceding from a country that has one of the most advanced military forces on earth is laughable.

Imagine the magnitude of military might could be wrought upon the lone star state by the federal government if they chose to sucede.

In addition, mere talk of suceding by any state or government official should be grounds for dismissal from office and they should be subject to imprisonment.

If you can go to jail for not paying your taxes and impeached for an oval office BJ, imagine what would happen to you if headed a sucession from one of the most powerful nations on earth?

I forgot about Chuck Norris.

I think he said he would run for President of Texas.

What a true patriot.

I'm I wrong in thinking that this thread no longer meets the Locker Room standards?
