Around SBN: Jeff Sullivan's MLB Trade Deadline Primer

Dear Bud: Please FOAD

Joining the kick-you-in-the-nutz bandwagon is your always accommodating Houston Comicle, whose website features this outstanding lead article and pic:

Die_bud_die2_medium

This on top of the fact the BE-SFs will be wearing Oiler throw-back uniforms?  Are you f*cking kidding me?

I mentioned this on the air with the incredibly hawt David Nuno on Wednesday, but this is a direct insult to you, your football team, and your man/woman-hood.  The NFL gods are kicking you directly in the jimmies, and the local fish-wrap is aiding and abetting in this mental assault on your football sensibilities.

Remember this when you're at a game and boo just a little more lustily and loudly when the BE-SFs are in town.  Bud's earned the hate.

That WAS classy

in all honesty.

I was residing in Cleveland, OH when Art Modell, who must’ve been Bud Adams’ long lost twin brother pulled the Browns out of Cleveland, however, to Cleveland’s credit, having learned from what happened to other cities, re: Houston, they were able to pre-empt the bastard and they retained the team name, colors and history. So, thankfully, that depressed area of the country doesn’t have to relive the slap in the face quite the way Houston has to. But, because of the city’s resilience and because they deserved it, much like Houston, Cleveland got another team. Both expansion teams seem to be stuck trying to get out of the bottom, but in Houston’s case, the top is getting nearer. We need to thank Bob McNair at this time, as a quality owner of the Texans franchise!

yep

Growing up in Houston in the 70s and 80s, there was no more despised human being than Adams…and I include the Ayatollah. He was widely ridiculed, worried more about the size of his dick than actually fielding winning teams. Whenever he felt threatened, he’d fire/demote that person (see Bum Phillips). He literally held the city of Houston hostage at the end, and then did the same to the NFL. He’s a joke of a person with all the morals and attitude of your common pick-pocket.

He is what he is: a weak, pathetic human being, always striving to stroke his own ego at the cost of others and unafraid of the consequences of his actions because….well, he’s rich, and fuck you. That’s why.

Bud Said FOAD To The Taxpayers

The taxpayers of Harris county still owe $25 million on the Astrodome refurbishment performed back in the 1980s to keep the Oilers from moving to Jacksonville. We all know how that story ended in 1997. It costs another $2.5-3 million a year to operate the dome, as it is. It will cost another $5-8 million to fix problems with the dome, just to maintain it as-is.

yeah, really... thank you Mr. McNair!

A win-win situation, if you ask me. We showed Pud the door, and now we’ve moved on, with what is truly a class organization.

By the way, maybe we’re better off keeping this on the down low, but has anyone else ever noticed the “A” in the Texans’ script logo? Yeah, the oil derrick STILL resides, full time, on HOUSTON’s unis!

Confused Houston people

This so cracks me up that their are still MORONS in Houston who feel like they were wronged somehow because the “Titans” who basically were the “oilers” wear there throwbacks. What NERVE! First off, You complainers are the same fairweather LOSERS who turned your backs on this team back in 95’ and lost any right to complain about anything pertaining to them. You’re lucky that you even got a team after the fact. After backstabbing the team Houston should never have been awarded anything.Worry about your pathetic Texans who SUCK and get their asses kicked twice a year by your former team! What did you think the NFL was gonna do let the Texans wear “OUR” throwbacks?! Don’t make us laugh!! LOL!!!The Texans are NOTHING with zero history and zero accomplishments. How appropriate for a town filled with ZEROES!!!!!

by oilzwell on Aug 10, 2009 9:41 AM CDT reply actions  

If we were that bad

oilzwell, if we were really as moronic as you say so thoughtfully, why would you spend so much time here trying to make a point. The city of Houston never turned its back on the Oilers, we just wanted the used car salesman Bud out. Losing the team was the lowpoint of the cities sports history and seeing the uniforms on Tennessee players was a strange feeling, not unlike seeing your old girlfriend/wife with another man 15 years later. You don’t hate them as much as just resent the time wasted with them. Besides, we like our new chick better now anyways and would never resort to calling our old flame names, because what would that really accomplish. Not much.

The actual mythological story about the titans is pretty twisted stuff. Check it out!

by DisplacedTexan on Aug 11, 2009 4:19 AM CDT up reply actions  

Thanks!

I think it’s difficult for many fans to understand. As I mentioned, when I was young, the Oilers WERE my religion…for four months, anyway. Life on Sundays revolved around the games, whether that was getting chores done early or heading to games or whatever. Sports are, to a large extent, an emotional investment, and when the rich evil villain robs you of that, something is taken.

by bigfatdrunk on Aug 11, 2009 8:27 AM CDT up reply actions  

This is it exactly, being a sports fan is an emotional investment first and foremost

I am lucky enough to be able to afford my season tickets as well, but should the day come that I can no longer afford to attend the games, I will still ride the emotional rollercoaster during each and every game. I have followed the Astros, Oilers/Texans and Rockets since their respective inceptions. To rip the Oilers from the collective hearts of their many fans in Houston was a soulless act by Bud. It’s all about ego & $$$ to him. I don’t think he can comprehend emotional investment.

I watched the recent Hall of Fame induction ceremonies and I now admire Bills’ owner Ralph Wilson more than ever. Chis Berman pointed out that Ralph has voted AGAINST EVERY PROPOSED FRANCHISE RELOCATION (in which he had a vote of course). A man with his integrity would never have moved the Oilers to Tampa Bay, Wahington DC or Tennessee. The Bills fans can be very thankful that they will likely never have to fret about losing their beloved Bills. I think (hope) Bob McNair was cut from the same cord of cloth as Ralph Wilson.

It took the Astros 44 years to get to the Series, the Oilers-Texans are due to get to the big dance...Go Texans!!!!!

Sorry you ain’t the “oilers” so calling them Oilers/Texans makes no sense

by oilzwell on Aug 11, 2009 3:52 PM CDT up reply actions  

I grew up watching Houston's professional football team, the Oilers

and followed them faithfully for 3+ decades. Circumstances beyond all Oiler fans’ control ripped them from us. I now faithfully follow Houston’s professional football team, the Texans. Makes perfect sense to me to call our team the Oiler/Texans. They would be called the Oilers, but BeezelBud displayed the depth of his egocentric hatred of Houston by purchasing the rights to all things Oiler related. Bud’s money is central to his evil character. If he lives long enough, you will eventually be victimized by his lack of a moral center. Not wishing that he defecates on Music City, but beware of his legacy. It is not kind.

Wait you didn’t turn your back on the oilers? Is that what you said? Oh I guess not showing up to a rally to save the oilers , so called fans barely attending games the last 3 years they were in Houston, and voting against a new stadium for "oilers"which you ended up paying for anyway for that embarrassment of a team (the texans) isn’t turning your back? Then you got these phony fairweather houston crybabies who supposedly have moved on and love their new team but continue to bitch and moan about The Titans wearing their own throwbacks.

Turned our backs Huh?

Ok my first question is do you live in Houston? Have you ever lived in Houston? I would assume no from your mindless blogging. As a Houston Homer which means yes I used to live and die Oiler football even in the those three years that you speak about that we turned our back on the Oilers. First and foremost those teams were undermanned by NFL standards. Bud Adams had made it clear that he wanted to move the team and did not put much talent out on the field at that time. The only good moves he really made in those years were Jeff Fisher which I still respect and drafting Eddie George who yall crapped on at the end of his career. As well as Steven “Air” Mcnair god rest his soul who Bud also crapped on at the end of his career. Bud Adams held this city up a ramsom wanting a new Stadium the biggest problem taxpayers had with it was not 6 years before he asked us to put money into the dome to make it better which we did. Then he asked for us to build him a new stadium we were not ready to move on at that time. As for the getting beaten up twice a year part of the conversation well we will just have to see how you look this year. Your pass rush is gonna be worse with out Phat Albert. I hope to see Chris Johnson’s maybe one time not run out of bounds and take a hit. But he is more concerned about his hits of YouStream these days. Can you say overated? Also there is one thing from Texas that you can keep we are glad that he is no longer with us you the next HOF superbowl winning quarterback VY. By the way dont forward this to him he might quit on his team and go missing if he hears another BOO. All in all get your facts straight before you post my family had season tickets from the day the Oilers started in Houston til the day they left. I am proud of the real Oilers but look to be more proud of my Houston Texans.

Yep turned your backs! NEXT

Let’s end the suspense shall we? No don’t live in Houston thank God! I’ve been there plenty of times and attended Oilers games in the astrodome,Rocket games in the summit etc. If by undermanned you mean the NFL fan attendance you had ,yes I agree wholeheartedly.First off,Bud Adams didn’t hold the city at ransom it was that stupid mayor of yours Lanier who held the city ransom and eventually drove B.A. to move the team with his threats and posturing! Happily, It worked out in our favor because now we got a" REAL"city that has sold out every preseason,regular season,and playoff games since getting our"NEW" stadium in 1999 and now have “REAL” supportive fans. and what do you have? Appropriately enough a team that hasn’t done squat in 7 years of existence. Lets see what else? Mcnair and George were not crapped on but they stubbornly demanded top dollar following declining years performances and were at the end as we saw with their new teams. Technically you crapped on them as they were oilers early in their career remember when you refused to support the team.? Aha there is the expected aboutface on VY now! Only two years ago he was the hero of Houston that stung you and everyone wanted him and loved him. Now that he’s struggling you want nothing to do with him how convenient. Just like the Oilers. Maybe it’s you who needs to get the facts straight shcmucko!! These are the facts!

how funny is it that here in houston, it takes like 3 to 5 minutes for them to do the sports… but in nashville after they talk about the titans it’s on to pig racin! ummmm….. im sorry… was it nashville where the superbowl was held? or the all star game?!?! im a little confused… besides the BE-SF squad, are there any other professional sports in tennessee?

And what makes Houston think they are less inbred hillbilly than Tennessee? LOL

Don't Feed It, Fellas

The commenter clearly gets off on the dialogue. This clever purveyor of scathing social commentary and mom jokes appears to be gunning for the honor of being the first user ever banned at BRB and doesn’t need anyone’s help getting there at this point.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to remind everyone of the No. 1 Rule here at BRB: Take issue or disagree with what’s said all you want, but no personal attacks. Thanks in advance for your consideration.

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

I think you meant “support” there, Bartle.

*smh*

the craziest part about this entire rant by oilzwell… is that it’s typical of tennessee fans. it’s not enough that we gave you guys a “HALL OF FAME” quarterback (his words, not mine!) and a team (how bout baseball and basketball?) but you country bumpkins never learn…. a true case of “biting the hand that feeds….” you tenneseans or tennaseans or whatever it is u call yourselves should be on your knees thanking us! oh wait… you will probably just come a yard short again….. so no thanks.

Oh a yard short ha ha how funny, That must’ve been the greenest envy day in Houston as every homer was glued to the set and rooting for us because why?? They had no team!! And wanted to be a part of of what they lost. We don’t need to thank you for anything, You blew it all on your own and gift wrapped this team for us stupid.

GENE POLICE!

Out of the pool you!
The premise of your attacks is that somehow we made a mistake and lost something….

We Lost: Bud Adams, A football team
We Gained: Bob McNair, A football team
Advantage: Houston

Rant and Rave all you like……we win.

I have to say on more thing on this subject, although the feelings of anger and great obfuscation will linger for several more games this season because the NFL deems that the unis will be worn again

The reason for the use of the retro uniforms is TRULY lost in this situation. There ARE NO Houston Oilers on that Tennessee Titans team. The only constant about the Tennessee Titans from the days of the Houston Oilers is the owner, who for every intent and purpose has completely disowned the city of Houston and in return the city of Houston has deservedly disowned that owner. But the HISTORY of that team ONLY means something to the FANS from the city of Houston. So, the purpose of doing the retro uniforms is TRULY LOST. It really is. What a shame… To even further pinpoint the err on the part of the NFL, too little time has passed since the Houston Oilers left the city. There are still many, many fans who remember too well what happened. I’m going to say that the NFL has made an awful mistake with this decision.

How is it possible to get the message to them? I am open to reasonable ideas and I think we should do something to express this message to Commissioner Modell….ooops, I mean Goodell.

Well, to be fair

Their head coach was around with the Oilers as well.

by tehGrindCrusher on Aug 12, 2009 12:44 AM CDT up reply actions  

That's fair. He was here a few years and he was respected by the fans

But, to please two men, Bud Adams and Coach Fisher is not a good reason to do what the NFL did.

Did the fans in Nashville really appreciate this? Did the fans around the country? If they did, then the fans in Houston weren’t LOUD enough!!!

Why are we JUST residing here on this fanblog, harping sorrowfully? Shouldn’t we do something to make our displeasure more widely known to the NFL? Why are the Irsays, Modells and Adams’ of this league being honored like this? LIKE THIS? This is a mud pie in the face of Houston and we are just TAKING IT! Are their any true fans here reading this? If their are, they better put their heads together and do something, SOMETHING!

Let’s let the world know that BRB is too proud to put up with this total disregard to the true fans of the Houston Oilers. It is OUR history! It was OUR team! Not Nashville’s and certainly no longer Bud Adams’!

It will happen

No disrespect to bfd for his valiant blog effort to foil the NFL's self-pleasure

But, I still don’t think that was enough to send the right message to the NFL and Adams. Something else has to be done. SOMETHING!

What is it?

It will happen

by Rip Jersey on Aug 12, 2009 7:00 AM CDT up reply actions  

I am not originally from Houston

As a matter of fact I didn’t get here until after the Oilers were gone. But even I feel the angst in the face of this incredible insult. I FEEL IT!

I saw a “MOVE” happen in Cleveland, first hand, shortly after relocating there. They are lucky. They were smart enough to retain the history, uniforms and name. They won the battle!

Houston is getting dumped-on on the national stage right now, on national TV, in the national news and even right here in our own fanblog by Titan interlopers. Houston needs to get their history back. They need their retro-unis, and not Nashville. Yes, we have our Texans and that is our present and our future, but our history is the Oilers and belongs here!

I’m out….

It will happen

by Rip Jersey on Aug 12, 2009 7:07 AM CDT up reply actions  

Ok, I really have to get going

We need to start by filing a lawsuit. We need to get an injunction from a court of law forbidding the NFL from allowing the unis to be worn. It has to be part of a bigger lawsuit suing the NFL to get our history back. This is just the start. No time to discuss right now. Going to be late.

It will happen

If only we knew an unscrupulous plaintiff's attorney...

Tim, can you help us find one among the BRB community? I’m sure it won’t take much effort.
