As a kid, I'd always use something like "Houston Heat" or heatwave as a team, and then somewhere along the line (before city connect jerseys), I started using city nicknames (Gateway City, Emerald City, Empire City, Queen City, Charm City, Motor City, etc) and Space City stuck. Adding in Sky Captains was a fit, but likely not as great as what I thought it was initially. Tribute to the Houston Oilers with the color scheme.
