[edit] Improvement drive

National Football League is currently a candidate on WP:IDRIVE. Vote for it if you are interested!--Fenice 20:39, 10 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Name of the new team

The article should answer: When the team moved and changed their name to the Titans, why was the expansion team named the Texans instead of naming it the new Oilers? (That is, why didn't they mirror what happened after the Browns moved and became the Ravens, and the new Cleveland team became the new Browns.) Tempshill 05:28, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] LA's indifference a "mystery"?

This sentence was minor, but a laugher: For reasons unknown and unexplained, Los Angeles seemed to be indifferent with the prospect of being awarded an NFL franchise. No real progress seemed to be made toward securing a suitable stadium (both the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and the Rose Bowl are aging facilities). --uh, there was a lot written in the LA Times and many other major media sources about the LA area's issue with taxes and public funds for the stadium (as well as the less interest in the average LA resident). I'll have to dig up an article and remove this humously uniformed statement. -- Bobak 21:21, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New name Vs. New Oilers

1. The Oilers name has been "retired" by The NFL to keep the winning traditions in Houston 2.Texans was chosen after an name contest 3.The Titans still old the name and records of the Oilers 4.Most people hate bud adams in houston.

[edit] Reloaction to Los Angeles
