Two months ago, just before the Week Two game between the Texans and Titans, I wrote that the rivalry had the potential to build into one of the great rivalries in the NFL.After what transpired in that game, and what each team has gone through since, the game on Monday night may just bring my prediction to bear.The history between these two teams goes back beyond the seven years the Texans have existed in the NFL, and even beyond the 13 years since the Oilers moved to Nashville.At the root of the rivalry is Bud Adams a man whose ethical equivalent is a pile of steaming dog (poop) and whose class was once again on display when he flicked off the Buffalo Bills last week.In 1987, Adams threatened to move the Oilers to Jacksonville if the city of Houston did not upgrade the Astrodome.Houstonians responded by contributing $67 million in public funds to upgrade the dome, showing their love for the Oilers.Unappeased, however, Adams continued to demand additional public funds for further improvements and ultimately a new stadium while simultaneously dismantling the 1993 team, which finished a franchise-best 12-4 but failed to win in the playoffs.So let’s recap:He threatened the city, dismantled the team, and then made more threats.Yeah, that sounds like the basis for a solid relationship.Naturally, the city of Houston told him where to stick his demands, and he essentially took his ball and ran home.Rumor has it that trees were spontaneously combusting as he made his way out of Houston.Since then, the team thankfully shed itself of the revered Oiler label, and, regrettably, has developed in the mold of its owner.From head-stomping linemen to law-breaking cornerbacks to whining quarterbacks to Terrible Towel-stomping running backs, the Titans have come to emulate the class of their owner.Houston has since rebounded with the establishment of the Texans, and provided the team's new and respected owner with the fancy new stadium that Adams always wanted but never got.But, as with most expansion teams, the Texans’ lack of on-field success precluded the rivalry with Houston's former team from really gaining legs.Sure, the Texans swept the series in 2004, but while many games were close, Houston couldn’t break through with another victory against the Titans until last season.That’s when things started changing.With the Titans needing a win to secure home field advantage in the playoffs, the Texans came through and beat them in Houston late last year.Ultimately, the Titans were still able to win the following week in Pittsburgh to secure that home field advantage, but at the time it looked like it may have been a big blow.The Titan players tried to brush off the game saying it meant nothing to them and trying to poke fun at the Texans for celebrating a big victory, but you could tell it was more than just another loss.In Week Two this year, the Texans made it two in a row and things got personal.Cortland Finnegan and Andre Johnson got after each other because Johnson felt Finnegan was taking some cheap shots.(Let’s face it: This was the second game in-a-row against the Texans in which Cortland Finnegan proved himself nothing but an overrated cornerback with a penchant for cheap shots who should change the nameplate on his jersey to read “Andre Johnson’s Btch.”)Kyle Vanden Bosch and Eric Winston nearly came to blows after Winston felt Vanden Bosch was intentionally trying to hurt Joel Dreesen.Now, Keith Bulluck talks about not even acknowledging the Texans.Bernard Pollard just wants to knock the piss out of someone.The players now feel the same intensity as the fans, and with that, the fan rivalry grows stronger.It was pushed further this year when the Titans pretended to honor the AFC by wearing the old Oiler uniforms.But how many Titan fans had to suffer the indignities of the Bud Adams eraHow many bled Columbia blue through the playoff loss against BuffaloNo, this was an insult to the great fans of Houston and the Oiler franchise one Houston fans won’t soon forget (and I mean real Houston fans, not those that followed Bud to Tennessee or those who still root for Vince Young).And if you think I’m being harsh, remember that great rivalries aren’t built on respect and mutual admiration; they’re built on passion and emotion.Anyone who says otherwise is selling something.Whatever happens tonight, there is little doubt that emotions will be high and this seedling rivalry will continue to grow.. Bill Madden wrote an article talking about how the Mets are focused on tier 2 free agents due to the amount of money they have available and trying to fill the needs.This is just another chapter in the folly that is the Mets organization. Spend the money on the pivotal positions like a quality starting pitcher or a linchpin player in left field. Then fill the rest of the holes with the support players that you need.To focus on tier 2 players is moronic. The focus should be on a quality 2 starter and a young talent at either first base of left field.
