It's been unofficially known for quite some time now that the San Jose Earthquakes are staying put, but I haven't heard of an official announcement yet.
In any case, the inclusion of the upcoming Houston MLS expansion team (Houston Apollos?) will make for a great intra-state rivalry with FC Dallas. :cool:

As far as getting a team in Houston...I'll beleive it once I hear it. :cool:
Either way, I hope San Jose will have a certain hatred towards Houston now,that way when we get a team, we might have a rivalry. It would be good for the MLS. Houston Vs Dallas is a given.

It's actually the other way around: Until there's an official confirmation that the Earthquakes are moving, the Earthquakes aren't moving.
