This made me throw up....and made my hatred for Bud Adams even more intense.
|
Bud. Adams. Is. Evil.:mad:
|
I stopped caring about them in 1995.
|
This doesn't bother me so long as the Chiefs are wearing Dallas Texans uniforms.
|
I guess Lamar Hunt and then Bud Adams more or less started the AFL, so, there were some early good memories. definitely quit caring in early 90s and 95.
|
Yes Bud and Lamar together used to pay every player in the league. Not many people realize that, but the AFL would not have survived had Bud not been willing to help the other teams out.
Lamar is in the HOF, and Bud is not. As much as it pains me, Bud does deserve to be in the HOF along with Lamar. |

I dont really care about them anymore.... The Jets also wear their New York Titans uniform... that evens it out.

The 0nly Hall Bud Adams belongs in is a pool hall.

I want to pee in Bud Adams' flowerbed

That's what the original uniforms looked like back in their AFL Championship days. I've always thought the numerals looked weird but that's how they looked.

Meh...it's history.
Think that's bad? Imagine being the Broncos and having to don again those San Diego Padres' brown-and-mustard color combination unis with vertical socks. as shown here. And here's a rare color photo of an Oilers at Broncos game from 1960 or 1961: http://endzonesportscharities.org/60h_act.jpg |

Yeah, the Oilers are history, but damn if it isn't MY history. |
That's the point with me! I do go back to the very beginning, with Adams signing Billy Cannon under the Sugar Bowl goalpost in 1958! I don't care if he did help fund the AFL, he screwed over this city big time for a long time. I don't forget and I sure as hell don't forgive.

And that uniform is the uniform of Earl Campbell, Bum Phillips and Luv a Blue. And it is the uniform of Run N Shoot, House of Pain, 35-3. It is my cities sports history, and that man stole it. As a fan I was told we do not matter, and that we where bad fans by the former commissioner. The league did everything it could to bypass the Houston fans. Well screw that man. |
