There's some truth to what he said. It's true that the Cowboys will always be #1 in DFW. It's true that the Rangers bandwagon picked up some passengers as they won two pennants and made a Wild Card appearance after years of doing jack . It's bad form to say it, though, and it came across as a shot against the fanbase. If this were a "real" baseball town, he would have gotten booed more for checking out the way he did. Does he really think fans in a "real" baseball town like New York, Boston, Detroit or Chicago wouldn't have given him for the way he quit down the stretch last year?
If anything he bought himself quite a bit of goodwill here with his Jesus routine. That won't go as far with his new team. Church attendance isn't nearly as high in Southern California as it is in North Texas. Next time he gets drunk and bangs some chick in a bar that's not his wife, hiding behind a Bible won't help him.
