The '''Houston Texans''' are a [[National Football League]] [[franchise]] based in [[Houston]], [[Texas]]. Many fans tend to be in east Texas and are likely conservative as most of southeast Texas is on the right. They are part of the [[American Football Conference]] (AFC) and play in the AFC South Division. The Texans were formed as an expansion team in 2002 and enabled the [[NFL]] to split the AFC into four equally divided divisions instead of three (part of that move included moving the [[Seattle Seahawks]] from the AFC West to the NFC West Division). In the short history of the franchise, the Texans never had a winning season until 2011- 2012.

They are part of the [[American Football Conference]] (AFC) and play in the AFC South Division. The Texans were formed as an expansion team in 2002 (they are the youngest of the current franchises) and enabled the [[NFL]] to split the AFC into four equally divided divisions instead of three (part of that move included moving the [[Seattle Seahawks]] from the AFC West to the NFC West Division).

The original plan was for this franchise to be awarded to Los Angeles; however, several competing groups refused to cooperate on getting a team, and therefore Houston (which wanted a team after the Houston Oilers, an original AFC team, relocated to Nashville) was awarded the team.
The original plan was for this franchise to be awarded to Los Angeles (the second largest media market, which lost two franchises previously); however, several competing groups refused to cooperate on getting a team nor could any of them snooker public entities into paying for a new stadium, and therefore Houston (which wanted a team after the Houston Oilers, an original AFC team, relocated to Nashville) was awarded the team.
