Bud was a cock from Day One, and not in a good way. - Edit 1

I mean...of course I'll still care about my Broncos...you know, in that way you still care about an old friend you never talk to anymore because he's dating your ex-wife...but until Tebow is gone I'll be happy to root for the Texans.
Though ol' Bud was a jerk for not letting them use the "Oilers" name.
I fail to see why the team, fans and city had to suffer for that, but then, I always have. Harris County GUTTED the Dome multiple times to placate him and keep a team that rarely sold out the additional seating he demanded, so it's not surprising they finally called his bluff on taking his team and going home. Also, he doesn't know jack about football but, far worse, he THINKS he does, so I got to see Warren Moon blindsided as he was cocking to throw more times than I can count, then listen to equally clueless people tell me Moon sucked for fumbling. WTF DESIGNS their team to be UNABLE to run out the clock with a 32 point lead in a playoff game?
The Oilers are dead; their abusive father killed them, and calling another team the Titans doesn't change that. It is fitting they went to Tennessee, I concede; seemingly every original Texan (including Sam Houston, the only man in US history to be Governor of two different states) was from there anyway. Meanwhile, it goes Broncos>Texans>Cowboys, with a bit of Vikings thrown in for m'ladys sake (after all, the Vikings are the NFCs answer to the Oilers perennial choking despite exceptional talent. )
