I keep thinking of these local teams with so much talent and regular season success and either gut punches in the first round or more severe kicks to the balls deeper in playoff contention:
2017 - SMU early exit from NCAA tournament (after AAC champ run)
2017 - Dallas Cowboys early exit from NFL playoffs (after top conference seed)
2016- Texas Rangers early exit from playoffs (after top league seed)
2016 - Dallas Stars exit from playoffs (after top conference seed)
2015 - Texas Rangers early exit from playoffs
2015 - Dallas Cowboys exit from playoffs on end of game shady call on Dez
2015 - SMU early exit from playoffs on end of game shady goaltending call
2011 Texas Rangers one out away from World Series (twice) and still lose
2010 Texas Rangers World Series loss
The list goes on, feel free to add like 10 first round playoff eliminations by the Mavs in there and the 2008 Dallas Stars loss to the Red Wings in the WCF.
2016 - FC Dallas finishes top of the league, star player gets hurt, loses in first round of the playoffs
