Look out football, here we come, Houston Oilers, Number One.
Houston has the Oilers, the greatest football team.

And when you say the Oilers, you're talking Super Bowl.
'Cause we're the Houston Oilers, Houston Oilers, Houston Oilers, Number One. Yes, we're the Houston Oilers, Houston Oilers, Houston Oilers, Number One.
We've got the offense,

We give the other team no hope.

35-3. Oops.
I remember I use to go to their training camps here. I got so many autographs from those guys.
Worst Fight Song Ever.
So how lame are the Dolphins that they had to steal it?
Believe it or not I still have a LUV YA BLUE original shirt from back in the day.
I used to love watching the Oilers and I guess secretly I was a fan, how could you not be? If you didn't like the Dallas Cowboys, then the Oilers were your team
My father was friends with Dan Pastorini so thats how I got into watching them by the way and then moving around to Texas I got to watch them often too.
Hey, They were hosed in the 78' AFC le game and Bud Adams is an ass for Firing Bum Phillips. I guess he got tired of winning.
Bum had the best quotes too back then
"this year we knocked on the door, next year we're gonna kick the door down"
oh yeah, Texans does stink for a name btw. It would have been better if they'd have been voted Stallions, given the choices.
'79 actually.
Mike Renfo. In bounds. No replay then.
I have a videotape of the broadcast of that game and that Renfro play was just egregious. I can remember seeing it live in January 1980 and thinking the officials just got it wrong, and seeing it again years later hasn't changed anything.

There was something about those Luv Ya Blue Oilers teams of the late 70's. They weren't flashy, but they really hung with those great Steelers teams in just about every game (other than the 1978 AFC Championship game in Pittsburgh). It was a shame that they never quite "kick[ed] that som' in," as Bum promised.
I remember Bum yelling "NO! NO!" on the sidelines when they ruled it out of bounds . . .
Just Bud's way of sticking it to Houston one last time.
The Oilers were all heartbreak, all the time. Hopefully the Texans will be able to erase that someday.
I'll never forget the headline "What a bunch of losers" in the Houston paper.
I was a huge oilers fan growing up and I still follow the ans. As far as all heartbreak, yeah you're right. Who can forget that huge meltdown in Buffalo back in '93?
Let's get it straight, so as to be able to correct the rest of the fools out there (particularly Monday Night Football commentaters) The then HOUSTON OILERS STOLE THE FIGHT SONG FROM MIAMI. CASE CLOSED_ NO DEBATE!.........There was an 45 rpm single of the Miami version 2-3 years before Houston debuted the song against us in that awful Monday night game where they ALSO stole the waving of the white hankies! they suck forever!
So how lame are the Dolphins that they had to steal it?
The Texans could do with a new logo too
The Houston football Colt .45's, like the NY Giants, STL Cardinals did

Thats right...1978 they were massacred by the Steelers in the le game.
That was absolute bull of a play, Renfro was in and that game's outcome changes there, you just knew it if you were watching it.
I think Houston would have won and gone on to play the Rams that year in the Super Bowl.
They should go with the original Houston Texans logo!The Texans could do with a new logo too
:p
It's too Packerish! But it looks good to me!They should go with the original Houston Texans logo!
:p
Miami stole the fight song?
Oh well, if we did, that's fine, cause we owned the Oilers. Baby.
The football team originally was the Chicago Cardinals. That they shared their name with the baseball team upon moving to St. Louis is coincidence.
