I know @peaygolf is laughing at me that I found a way to drag the Oilers pin into it.

Wtf is this pin? I think Adams is the idiot. Did she order this guy to wear it or is the vibe in the office that it's the way to keep your job?

I didn't like it either.......but I've been told that they are planning on wearing Oiler throwbacks vs Houston this season...........
I think it is more of a "slap in the face" towards Houston........than paying homage to the past.

IDK??

I was just thinking that too when I saw:

....
I honestly feel like the Houston Texans have more right to continue using the Oilers name/logo. It really belonged to the city ....

Which I disagree with, MoCo, but interesting point.

Did she actually think Houston would try to make a legal claim to the name?

Yep. Now if someone could marry the solunar fishing times to a phones alarm app, what a wonderful world it would be.

No Disputing. Houston is recognized as the oil capitol of the world!

Second look at throwbacks.

I've never been a fan of wearing Oilers unis, but if it pisses Texas off...

Can we get a side of "Hey, Texas, who's your daddy?"

It doesn't matter where you start, it matters where you finish.

Judging by updates so far

QB - Merklinger 4*
RB - Lewis 4*
WR - JJ 4*/ Matthews 5*/ Jefferson 4*/ Wingo 5*
TE - Echols 4*/ Okoye 4*
OL - Ginther 3*/ Perry 3*/ Anderson 4*/ Ronan 3*

DL - Gentle 3*/ Franklin 5*/ Heard 3*
Edge - Lindstrom 4*/ Fountain 4*/ Ross 5*
LB - Spillman 4*/ Burns 3*
Secondary - Beasley 4*/ Goree 4*/ Carter 4*/ Farooq 3*

So another RB, OL, maybe 1-2 DL, and 2 secondary. Be interesting to see who we prioritize later

I just disputed it. And I dispute it again. Doesn't give them the right to the name.

But I can see why no one would want to be called the Texans.

(Disclaimer: I have a BIL in the biz in Houston and he loves it.)

RedBull puts out the absolutely coolest shiz. This isn't quite up there with the insane snowboarding video from a year or two ago or the antics of skiing down K2, but another fantastic video. Love how they include the fails. And the soundtrack pairing is

Uhmm.. amazing

Houston Oilers from 1960-1996
Tennessee Oilers from 1997-1998

Houston is the oil capitol of the world so "Oilers" as a mascot made sense. But to me if you're the owners and you decide to move AND rebrand the team then why wouldn't the original team mascot/logo stay with the founding city.

Ravens didn't keep the Browns from Cleveland they relocated with their new branding and that's when the franchise essentially began. Titans did the same thing, except rather than be ready to rebrand before starting the first season in the new city they were too cheap/lazy and waited a couple seasons to see if Nashville would be profitable for them.

I figure Bud did it deliberately to spite them, now that you put it that way. But I don't claim to know.

Peay, give us a Konica-Minolta swing analysis of Kramer’s golf swing.

Maybe I'm just slow this morning, but what is funny about this? Help me out.

He’s not the Master of his Domain…or his swing

His "reverse C" finish is simply poetic – if only he had the man hands necessary to release properly.
