Eight years later, another feel-good story is taking shape down in Tennessee. This one also involves a team called the Titans, but they play in the NFL. Last Sunday, the Titans became the 15th team since the 1970 merger to start a season 8-0. Perhaps this accomplishment didn't attract the attention it deserved because of a little thing called the presidential election. But frankly, while the Titans have been a scrappy "yes we can" kind of team, they've never really been the people's choice, at least for people who live outside of Nashville.
