A timestamp of slovenliness

Peruse the list of teams here: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players. At first blush, they appear to be in alphabetical order. Then you find the anomaly of the Tennessee Titans between the Denver Broncos and Indianapolis Colts. Likewise the Oakland Raiders between the Kansas City Chiefs and Miami Dolphins. Then the ludicry of the Baltimore Ravens being the second team from the bottom, followed by the Houston Texans. A similar pattern of absurdities can be found in the NFC's column.

Those who know NFL history know where I'm going with this. This list hasn't been updated since 1994, when the Raiders and Rams were in Los Angeles, the Titans were the Houston Oilers, and the Jaguars, Panthers, Ravens and Texans didn't exist. It seems a ridiculous way to date oneself.
