Re: Ummm.....

Without going into details.....Houston Oilers moved to Tennessee and became  
the Tennessee Titans (or something like that).  Houston was NOT upset about  
losing that team, or should I say the owners.  Houston was tired of funding  a 
losing team that was draining funds, and not providing.   Either way, after 
the appropriate mourning period (for appearance sake  only) another pro-football 
team was put together, the name voted on by the  citizens of Houston, and 
presto......the Houston Texans were born.

Houston  Texans (didn't they used to
