    Eventually, this city will get to the point that it doesn't really care about what the Titans do week-in/week-out. Probably will be some time after VY gets cut (or traded or retires early...whatever).

    Hell, I wanted to watch the Vikings-Dolphins game today (like most of the country was), but the local channel put on VY vs. Steelers b/c they presumed the local interest was enough.

    On the flipside, the Texans game was NOT shown in Dallas (even though we were playing their division rival). They got to watch Pats-Jets (which was the "national" game, but an AFC game nonetheless).

    Some day... Texans games will be on in Dallas, and Titans games won't be on in Houston... and the world will be right.

    Nick must not have NFL Redzone. It's like crack for those of us who can't get the NFL package as we don't have Direct TV.

    Miami at Minnesota would have been the national game, but I think Pittsburgh has a solid following in Houston, and Tennessee is Tennessee.

    I rather have received Pittsburgh at Tennessee than Miami at Minnesota.






    You guys think were getting the number 1 play by play guys on FOX next Sunday?

    Pissed me off when I didn't find the Texans game on. I had to go to a birthday party and was going to DVR it, but oh well...

    I have it... but would have liked to watch the Vikings-Fins in its entirety (or at least more of that game than the awful Titans-Steelers snoozefest). In the end, I just kept it on RZ and ended up seeing most of the key moments of Vikings-Fins anyways.

    I would be curious if the Titans ratings here really justify them being shown as much as they do. Houston is full of transplants. I bet there are tons of Jets, Pats, and Bears fans here too.

    Probably... only because its not a double-header week for Fox, the Cowboys are still their most popular team, and it'll likely be a more entertaining game than Falcons-Saints (even though that will actually be more of an even matchup).

    Regardless, Texans-Cowboys is more of an interesting game than Jets-Dolphins (which is the national night game).

    Why would I like a team who ripped the city of Houston hearts out?

    HOUSTON TEXANS is my love!

    Titans and their fans(especially the ones in Houston) annoy me very much.

    So, you are seriously saying that your allegiance lies with Bud Adams...no matter what, through thick and thin. Hell, you'd follow him to Toronto if he chose to move his business there.

    Nice.

    Being a Titan's fan is like talking about how pretty your ex-girlfriend is right after she dumped you for another man.
