    The Houston Cohetes.

    Except we'd drive away even MORE of the white football-is-king crows. And we'd get too many Houston Cojones jokes.

    The word Rockets does have some positive meanings that are not violent, unlike bullets. So, though I don't see this ever becoming an issue with the PC police, I will submit a hypothetical entry.












    The Houston "Howitzers"

    That should keep PC police quiet.

    How about: The Houston Hustlers


    Double meaning, plus the alliteration as a bonus.

    Houston Hurricanes actually makes a lot of sense.

    Will make for good headlines when we steal CP3 from NO and dominate them for a decade.
