	New York Jets (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Harry Wismer, who purchased the original AFL New York franchise, had initially named the team the "Titans." He chose this name with the rationale that a titan was larger than a giant and his new team would have to compete for the spectator dollar with the well established New York Giants of the rival NFL.
