Didn’t the Texans beat them last time they played dress up?

But what will they be wearing while clearing out their lockers on Monday?

Its theirs to wear. That said, I wish both sides would just let the Oilers rest in peace.

Tenn has a team. They need to embrace it and be quiet.

Houston has a team. No sense in wishing your new spouse to dress up like your deceased spouse. Its creepy.

Tell that to the Browns.

The Browns history and colors remained in Cleveland though. The Ravens weren’t the Browns rebranded.

And the Oilers could have, and SHOULD have remained in Houston, but Adams and his family were too chicken**** to do it, like the Cleveland owners did.

The Ravens are just a REAL football team unlike the Browns…

Yup. That’s what I said in my post.

I would get this gear if any of it said Houston on it

Beat them an understatement.

If they really want to troll, they should come out in Texans colors.

Copy Cats! Should UH sue? LOL!
Go Coogs !

adams family message to Houston.
FU
There is no other possible explanation for the adams family behavior.
The nfl is 100% responsible for this and obviously they could care less about the Houston Oilers fans.
When the San Diego Chargers were no longer many pushed for the Chargers colors and name to stay in San Diego. The nfl did not lift a finger.
The city of Cleveland was able to keep its colors and name. Art Modell might have helped I can’t remember.

Lots of $5 tickets available for this one so the gimmick doesn’t seem to do much to ignite the fanbase.

I wish we’d let that blue go, as soon as that team moved it was done. There’s no reason for us to wear it and the Texans H-Town garb is clownish and sad. My opinion, I know some of you like it .

Thank you for saving me the trouble of stating this.

It was pretty weird when Emperor Nero did it.

I am sure the motivation for Tennessee to wear the Oiler tribute unis is the same as UH’s motivation to wear the Houston Blue unis…sell more merchandise. If you’ve noticed around the NFL and college football, alternate uniforms are now common.

Being a lifelong Houston Oilers fan, when the Titans wear the Oiler tribute uniform, it feels like a punch in the gut. As any sports fan knows, you invest a lot of yourself and your emotions following one of your favorite teams.

Yeah, hell with that school color crap, traditions, past and present dedicated fans, those stupid statues that need “later” colors on them, and all that other dumb stuff. Lets get in the groove and go sell some merch!!
