Does Anyone Remember?

1993-1994 Oilers. The season after the Buffalo fiasco, which happened the day after my lovely spouse and I got hitched. I was on the plane to San Francisco and the pilot came on and said the Oilers had lost 41-38,  I remember thinking, " well at least they made a game of it". I learned the real story later.

The Oilers started the next season 1-4, and I remember Bob Allen and others just dogging them. I was a newly wed and don't really remember but how were they playing? Horribly or just unlucky? They went on to win the last 11 in a row. My wife was lucky enough to be with me on our 1st anniversary to watch them beat the Jets for the 11th win.

Let me state

I don’t think the Texans are going to win 11 in a row but, I just remember at 1-4 the Oilers got no slack and look what happened.

GO TEXANS!!!!!!!!!

Good Point

I do remember everyone giving up on that Oiler team, and they turned it around. Of course, they didn’t have Jacques Reeves, but…keep the faith!

Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...

Thanks for the memories

Don’t get me wrong, I love the Texans. But damn I miss the Oilers.
