	San Diego Chargers?

	Steelers and Chargers. Chargers have a horse in their old logo, because it's a calvary charge. But if you have the Texans, who use a longhorn as a mascot, you have to include the Chargers.

	Gotta include the Chargers. Original logo or not, they are not named after an animal.

	what about the Bills? Buffalo is the city. I may be wrong, but I always thought the name was a play on Buffalo Bill. If I'm wrong I apologize in advanced.

	Way too much time. Chop off at least 2 or 3 minutes.

	thanks for the suggestions guys, i added the bills and chargers, even though no one really knows where the chargers name came from. It is thought that they are named for Barron Hilton's new credit card that he created.

	The Chargers came from the cheer that the owner of the Chargers would here at the LA Coliseum when the Chargers were in LA. Its the duh-duh, duh, duh, duh-duh...Charge! cheer. Very stupid way to come up with a nickname, but that's what it is.

	I always thought the Chargers had something to do with a Horse. Not the same things Philip Rivers would do to a horse, but something to do with them.

Comment below threshold: show it

	Bills aren't named after the animal. They're named after a Barbershop Quartet (No lie).

	chargers, bills, and cardinals are not named after animals

	Jules brings up a good point on Cardinals. They were originally named after the color, but I guess they are associated with the bird now. But Buffalo is associated with a bison because its in their logo. Where to draw the line, I don't know...

	both the cardinals and bills were not named after animals...however over time they became associated with said animals.

	the bills were named because of buffalo bill...

	nut:	Jan 24th, 2010 at 21:40 GMT		2 points
	the bills are weird because the animal is in the name of the city and not the team. there isn't really anything called "a bill" in their case, they just wanted the play on words like the guy above me said
