A Real Texan

There are some posers. Some guys who like to wear Texas on their sleeves. Some guys who think that prancing around in a pair of pointy boots is all that it takes to be Davy Crockett. Mr. Maury Maverick Jr.
Mr. Maury Maverick

There are some cheerleaders who think that spouting a bunch of rah-rah words makes them patriots.
In other words, there are some people giving Texans a bad name these days.

Then there's this guy. Mr. Maury Maverick. His grandfather made the word maverick what it is today. This guy was a real Texan. Read about his life here.
