Name spelling

edit

Shouldn't this page be titled Houston Buffalos, with no "e"? 49242guy (talk) 13:53, 22 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Possibly, but there have been two spellings. The one for Wikipedia should probably be the spelling most strongly associated with the team. I have added the alternate spelling to the lead and have added a redirect from Houston Buffalos. —Danorton (talk) 18:32, 23 November 2014 (UTC)Reply

Allen Russell

No mention of Allen Russell in the history of the Buffs??? Please research/review and add his contributions.

Thank you,

Astros' name

edit

The article says the Astros were named after the Astrodome; isn't that the other way around? The Colt .45s became the Astros because of NASA being headquartered in Houston, and thus when the new stadium was beingn built it was called the Astrodome. The article makes no mention of the basic fact that having NASA come to Houston was behind the team name change and stadium name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skellyf (talkcontribs) 16:48, 16 February 2022 (UTC)Reply
