I want to preface this by saying that I used to play with the Houston Oilers a LOT on Tecmo Super Bowl.  Very high powered offense.  Fantastic video game team, and thus I've generally never had anything against Houston.

However, during a bad football season, a large and EXTREMELY vocal group of Texans fans started causing a lot of problems.  The Texans starting Quarterback Matt Schaub was injured, and the Texans fans cheered loudly!  Celebrated an injury!  That would be bad enough if it was to an opponent, but it's even worse when it's one of their own.  A month later when Schaub was put into a game, he was promptly booed loudly.

I know that this likely doesn't epitomize your entire fan base, but I think it says a lot about in that like 70,000 of your worst fans are capable of this, and your best fans(I'm sure there were a few hundred in the stadium) aren't good enough to tell them to quit embarrassing themselves.  I imagine I am not the only football fan in the country who now has a lower opinion of the Houston sports fanbase as a result of these fans actions.

I googled a pic should you be able to address with them how damaging that kind of behavior is to the city.
