After Houston was awarded the NFL's 32nd franchise on October 6, 1999, a series
of focus groups were formed to help come up with a nickname for the team.
On March 2, 2000, the team announced five choices, the Apollos, Bobcats,
Stallions, Texans and Wildcatters. The list was then shaved to the Apollos,
Stallions and Texans a month later. After careful deliberation, the team
unveiled the Texans' name, colors, and logo at a rally held in downtown Houston
on September 6, 2000.
