Uniform changes....
With respect, if your argument is that who owns the name, brand, colors of a franchise isn't relevant - and maybe I've misunderstood your position...

To answer the former: because there isn't a knife in existence capable of splitting the hair necessary to draw a distinction between "shades" of...

I mean this sincerely: your response is a (perfectly rational & understandable) emotional reaction. But the facts of the matter are the Titans own...

This simply isn't true. The NFL owns the Oilers name, brand, colors, logo... Think of it from this perspective: if an NFL team left the league to...

Correct. The Titans have a very reasonable claim that they "own" Oiler blue. I think they have every right to protect their brand - and that...

The Titans trotting out anything Oiler is 100% petty af. But I don't view objecting to the new Houston team trying to steal some of that Oiler...

I would wager there are often uniform approval issues & objections, as teams are *very* protective of their brand. But I think the vast majority...

The report states Nike designed a uniform that more prominently featured Oiler blue. I'm assuming here - but that would almost certainly be in...

Exactly. This is the point I think people are too-quickly speeding by: that history, from an NFL perspective, belongs in Tennessee. You can be as...

I agree with every word of this. But I keep going back to the fact the NFL, per reports, *agreed* with Tennessee, and limited how much Oiler blue...

They very clearly didn't stop them. That's not the argument being made. This is objectively wrong. They own 36 years of history that occurred in...

Oh, to be very clear... breaking out the Oilers uniforms last year was very clearly petty. Yeah, **** them for doing that. It was gross. I am in...

I think it's splitting hairs to draw some distinction between the shades of blue. Let me ask you a very simple question: why did the Texans want...

To be clear, I did not imply they would/could "stop" it nor that their radar would be set on *any* team. The issue here is the connection between...
