Fck them haters.


Nah, I can't get on board with this. I respect the law, or the licensing or trademark or whatever is relevant here.

I realize and fully accept that my burning desire that the Houston NFL football team someday wear Columbia blue and have that fantastic oil derrick logo is based 100% in nothing but emotion and nostalgia and I have not one shred of legal basis for expecting it to happen. But man I wish it would.
So, change the colors to the Columbia Blue. Rename Texans something oil related like Roughnecks, Roustabouts, etc. and instead of the old derrick use a pump jack!

So if this vindictive family owns the name "Oilers" (not sure, do they?) then how do we account for Edmonton Oilers or Pearland Oilers?

I've never had an issue with the "Texans" nickname for the current NFL franchise in Houston (Dallas Texans in the early 60s eventually became the Kansas City Chiefs, I believe), but the Oilers nickname is what probably all long-time Texans think of when they think of professional football in Houston. I'd love to see that nickname, logo, and color combo return to where it rightfully belongs.

I understand that the titans own the name but do they really own the color scheme as well? Seems like a stretch that UofH would not be able to wear columbia blue.

I searched the internets and surprisingly could not find any shirts or stickers that said "**** ya Bud" in the Luv ya Blue style.

Million dollar idea up for grabs here.

The ONLY reason this is happening is because Bud Adams and now his sex trophy spawn said and continue to say F*** YOU to the city of Houston.

This isn't about respecting the law.

I remember my dad had a shirt just like that in the mid 90's. Every now and then I tell him he should have kept it.

I wonder if Mattress Mac could help Houston get our Oliers' name & colors back. If anyone could, it'd be him.

Titans are 5-8? Yeah, that does bring back old Oilers memories.

Would love a few Texans show up in the stadium and start singing the Houston Oilers number one song…

I'm not a big Texans fan but I do like the HC and QB. I hope they beat the dog **** out of the Titans because I hate that the Adams family kept the Oilers identity and didn't leave it with the city.

I read the Texans are making uniform changes for 2024. Someone did these mockups which are sweet.

If you call them and ask for a local connection kit, they'll send you one for free. Basically an antenna that connects to your receiver. You can also get a $20 bill credit.

Adams Family and NFL already asked UH to cease and desist with their version of the uniform. I don't think the NFL would allow the Texans do adopt a color near the luv ya blue without the Adams owner lady acting like her father.

Pro sports fandom is all about cheering for the laundry that runs out on the field in your city. I never gathered why Titans fans would get much out of the aesthetics of something that never happened for them. The NFL got it right with the Browns/Ravens situation.

Who was going to stop him- and how. He owned the team and the rights to everything associated with the team. Same is true for KC, Colts, chargers, etc., etc.

Good call on your part, because an Attena probably would not help to solve your problem. Now an antenna on the other hand should work wonders!

Adams should have never been allowed to keep the rights to the Oilers name and colors...Texans should be the Oilers. How did Cleveland manage to keep theirs?
As big of an a**hole as Art Modell was, he did agree to leave the Browns name, colors, and history in their city.
So clearly was a bigger *******. Yeah, hope that guy is enjoying watching that Bills playoff game on loop.


Fitting entertainment for a stove side seat in hell.

Amy Adams just landed at West Houston Executive Airport if anyone wants to meet her at her car and yell at her.

I think John has been playing both sides of this. As I understand it, he does Titans stuff on the side. I can see why he wouldn't want to take too much time on old grievances.

You know, since the Texans have existed, I just have never been able to quite like the Texans logo.

It seems like I should, but there is something about it. Just feels cheesy with the name Texans, like, they don't really go with each other.
