Thats like saying a 7 year old should already have a house,car,and a job at the same level as the 49 year old.

Whatever the Oilers did with Moon in the 90's has absolutely zero impact on the Titans of today. It's coincidence. By your logic it stands to reason that the Texans will never be anything because the Oilers never were and the town of Houston is cursed. Doesn't that just sound half baked?

I wish that there was a younger alternative to get as a FA. As a fan, I'd love to send a pair of 1st rounders and whatever else it would take to get Matt Cassell and Randy Moss but that ain't gonna happen... I really don't know what I want.. I'm pretty sure of what I'm going to get but I'm not thrilled at the prospect of Collins getting a new deal. Maybe Chris Simms will shock us all.

Why not keep Collins and make VY a receiver? I don't know if VY can catch but we all know he is dangerous in the open field. Honestly IMO that is the only way he is going to make it in the NFL. However I know due to his pride he would never admit he is not an NFL calibre QB and accept another postion.

However it was confirmed again a couple of weeks ago that it is not the town that is cursed, it is the franchise.

oh, and I guess that's evidenced by Houston's playoff appearance and subsequent post season win? I may believe in an occasional jinx or be careful what I brag about but sports curses are stupid and I don't believe in them.

all I have to say is that you answered your own question.

I have one of those right here in my desk drawer. It's not like the Titans are the only team that had a conference championship ticket pre-printed. There can only be 1 conference champion. I'm sick of being a perpetual bridesmaid, don't get me wrong but I'm happy to at least be in the wedding party.

[Bulluck53]

For the record, I don't believe in said curse, I just like messing with you guys.

I would think all no. 1 seeds would pre-print both home games. That is standard protocol.

However, you are the only team that put a picture of that fat turd on your AFC Championship game ticket.

You don't have to believe in a curse for it to be real. The results speak for themselves at the end of the day.

Why would other teams put "that fat turd" on their tickets???

[Blazing Arrow]

The curse was slain when the Titans made the Super Bowl. No Houston football team ever made it that far.

Red couldnt convince them to build a stadium there and he is a car salesman and deal stalled because he couldnt use SA as a barganing chip. Jerry made it clear to him that would not be an option. So without the revenue of a new stadium and leverage to have a new one built he sold the team. He bought the team to move it here, but was blocked another owner. The owners are a collusive bunch. Once a stadium is built in LA and they start offering money to owners to move...which one do you think is greedy enough to move?

Wow, Bipolar...

Use your noggin. You are implying that the Texans organization has a lot of history. We have been in the league for 7 years now.

The Titans/Oilers are choke artists and THAT my friend is etched in stone. The Texans are still on a fairly clean slate.

Someone has got to win and someone has got to lose. Are you really disrespecting that Rams team? They would put up 50 on any Texans D to date so I really so no reason why you would.

Man, you really don't understand the Bud Curse do you? The Bud Curse is all about fooling you into thinking your team is about to achieve something great and then crushing you in the end.

Falling one yard short (of tying not winning, many seem to conveniently forget that) in the last second was classic Bud Curse, actually it was the Bud Curse's finest moment. Your UP then you are way DOOOOWWWWN. The Curse can cause a fan to yell "YEAAAAHHHHHH!!! .... AHHHHHHHH HELL NOOOOO!! ... HOLY CRAP!!! ... *&#**@&#**@ !!!!".

If that were the Oilers in that Super Bowl and it ended like that I think I would have jumped out a window or at least had to be committed for a while. However instead I sat back, shockingly took it all in (thinking my gawd, I am SOOOO glad I am not a fan of that team anymore), and then busted up laughing.

Why, thank you for opening that door!



btw, this image was provided by google when you type "Titans Super Bowl" into the image search. There is a whole page of them, too, different sizes and angles, so...uhhh...yeah.

Exactly! Wasn't that the same year as the so-called "Music City miracle"? I remember Bruce Mathews getting all giddy that this incident somehow erased the comeback from hell. Yeah, riiiiiight, Bruce. Just give it a couple more weeks.

See, Titans fans though they had "FATE" in their corner that year. The Curse set them up, only to knock 'em down hard. Fate was definitely waiting in the wings for the Tits, and it wanted to make sure Slug could almost taste the Lombardi before it pulled the proverbial football out from his Charlie Brown fat ass.

Y'all forgot the broken remote controls. Flying shoes. Kicking dogs. Punching walls...

*feels blood boiling*

[Blazing Arrow]

You can turn your back on it but it still makes your stomach turn.

[Shaft75]

This is how the Baltimore Ravens feel about the Titans, their fans and OWNER.
