Houston, Dallas police get in Twitter beef over NFL game

The police departments of Houston and Dallas have started a Twitter battle in the lead up to the Sunday game between the Texans and the Cowboys.

While also patrolling the streets, and serving & protecting, the law enforcement agencies have decided to have a little social media fun as the faceoff between the 3-1 teams at AT&T Stadium draws near, with the Dallas PD firing the opening salvo.

If you have learned nothing else this week, know that police officers are just as obsessed with sports as everyone else.
