I'm sure what he meant was that the people of Houston are so friendly and welcoming that if you are there for more than a week, it feels like you've always lived there.

I have to say that Simmons has really gone downhill. I realize that he is churning out blog entries twice or thrice daily, but c'mon, can't you think of a more original schtick than "Houston sucks," or "I hate Clemens?" Gee, no one has ever ripped Houston before.
I realize that I'm probably being overly defensive, since I went to undergrad there, but it was like 55 degrees for a high in Houston today (chilly, for there), and Simmons acts as if hell hath frozen over. Shouldn't a straight-up Bahston guy handle such temps with aplomb? And maybe the dipshit should mention at least once that Houston hosted a prior Super Bowl, in 1974 at Rice Stadium. So it isn't as if this is completely uncharted territory.
Fuck, I went to the 1992 SB in Minneapolis... now that was cold, brother! But it was still fun.
