Jackson Michael has brought the Luv ya Blue Oilers back to life.
Michael's new audio book Red, White and Columbia Blue: Chasing the Dream with the 1979 Houston Oilers takes a look back at one of Houston's most beloved teams.
Michael's work features stories and interviews from some of the key members of the team, including Dan Pastorini, Elvin Bethea, Curley Culp, Robert Brazile and more.
Red, White and Columbia Blue takes the reader through each game of the 1979 season, including the climactic 1979 AFC Championship game at Pittsburgh that featured one of the most controversial calls in NFL history – the Mike Renfro play.
The book combines magical moments with insights into many of the players on the legendary Pittsburgh Steelers in addition to the Oilers.
The audio book is a must for any fan of the Oilers and gift card options are available.
Red, White and Columbia Blue: Chasing the Dream with the 1979 Houston Oilers can be purchased at Houston79.com

The Texans defense came through once again on Sunday, as they were able to hold the Dolphins to just twelve points, helping to secure a 20-12 win for Houston.
Sunday's victory, paired with a Colts loss, also clinched another division title for Houston, which guarantees they'll host a home playoff game. This is significant because Houston has played much better at home, and given some of the NFL's best quarterbacks fits.
However, the offense just hasn't clicked consistently this year, for a variety of reasons.
With all this in mind, how far can this defense take the Texans?
