It's time for another installment of "We're as good as Dallas!"

From time to time -- usually around sporting events -- the Houston daily runs one of those insipid articles on the presumed "Houston-Dallas" rivalry. Typically, comparisons are made across several categories, and we are advised that Houston really does compare favorably with Dallas!

With the preseason Texans-Cowboys NFL game coming up tonight, the Chronicle's latest effort to boost our municipal self-esteem is posted here.

It's not clear that Dallas residents or journalists ever give so much thought to their alleged Houston "rival." But it's nice of the editors at the Houston daily to try to make us (or maybe themselves?) all feel better about things from time to time.

PREVIOUSLY: We may not be world class, but we're as good as Dallas, Houston elites: We're not inferior to Dallas! Really!
