Time running out to vote for Houston's name

Maybe you've heard, Houston has a, new to them, Major League Soccer team and they are looking for a name. Okay, they are not really looking for a name, but they are allowing you to vote on the name. They have 13 lucky choices up on their website. You can pick the one that you like best (or if you are from San Jose, the one you hate the most) and enter to win two 2006 season tickets.

Here are the names

Apollos
Americans
Bulls
Buffalos
Eagles
Generals
Gatos
Houston 1836
Lonestars
Mustangs
Stallions
Stars
Toros

My favorite, the Houston Mercury, did not make the extra long, short list. I thought the name tied both the space program (the first part of NASA's to the moon strategy was called Mercury) as well as the overwhelming heat in which they will play.
