A Reddit user has put forward an interesting theory suggesting that less adult content might lead to more victories for sports teams in Texas.
Recent success for Texas-based teams, such as the Dallas Mavericks and Houston Rockets, has coincided with the banning of a well-known adult website in the state.
Since the ban, both teams have remained undefeated, boasting a combined 11-0 record.
The Dallas Mavericks have enjoyed a five-game winning streak following the ban, while the Houston Rockets have soared with a 6-0 record. It’s worth noting that the Rockets had already secured four consecutive victories before the ban was enforced, and their winning streak has now extended to 10 games after defeating the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys, currently in the offseason, may be rueing their absence from the action, particularly after a disappointing playoff exit. Conversely, the Houston Texans, while perhaps envious of the Mavericks and Rockets’ success, have reason to be content with their respectable season, which included a playoff victory under a new head coach and rookie quarterback.
The banned website has restricted access to its platform in Texas due to the state’s age verification laws, which aim to protect minors from harmful content. Users in Texas attempting to access the site are met with a letter explaining the inaccessibility, as the platform complies with the law by implementing stricter age verification measures.
The correlation between the ban and the teams’ victories is intriguing, and as the Mavericks and Rockets continue their winning streaks, it lends credence to the Reddit user’s theory.
