    i can honestly say that if the titans gave up the oilers history and record books, i'd cheer for whoever got them.

    when i started liking football, it was because i thought the houston oilers were cool. and i stuck with them, and love the titans too. and it really really annoys me to see nashville folks not give two s**ts about it.

    but i also wear minnesota north stars jerseys to dallas stars games, so maybe i'm just insane.



    doesn't hurt that the titans uniforms are pretty gross, where the oilers ones were simplistic and clean.

    FWIW the old Oilers don't want much too do with Nashville either.

    Good point but i can see why because when Bud honors them during a game, most of the fans show their annoyance.

    Like I said in my OP, I have grown to love and appreciate the Oilers. Earl Campbell is my son's favorite player of all time. When he's bored, he pulls up that run of his where he escaped all those tackles vs. the Rams with his jersey torn and hanging off his back

    I grew up a Chargers fan...being from SD....however, time and circumstances landed me in Knoxville, TN. When TN got a team, I swore my undying loyalty. Chargers remained my "2nd favorite" team. Well, the other day, I was watching one of those old America's Game shows...but about losers who SHOULD HAVE made the SB. The Chargers season was highlighted.

    During the show, they had a moment about the Oilers beating SD 17-14. My son and I looked at each other, smiled, and then did the CJ/Lendale hand slap. LOL. And I adore Foutsy...so so so much.

    That speaks volumes about how much I love the Oilers history.

    LOL. My kiddo got so peeved during the Seattle pre-season game because Warren Moon was calling for the Seahawks.

    I told him that Titans fans prefer Eddie George in the booth

    That was weird to me too but it was pre-season so I let it go.
