    I just noticed there is no Houston Thunderbears anymore? Did they move or fold?

    It was all downhill after changing the name from the Texas Terror.

    They actually dissolved after the 2001 season.

    After Les sold the organization back to the league, they actually barnstormed around the country for a season, despite nominally still being the "Houston Thunderbears."

    The entire league (the Continental Indoor Soccer League [CISL]) folded after the 1997 season. There are no Texas franchises in the current existing Major Indoor Soccer League.

    My bad. I thought Dallas disbanded after its league ("World Indoor Soccer League") fell apart. Did they get picked up by the MISL?

    Incidentally, I don't know ANY of this stuff...just have a couple friends who have all these URLs bookmarked...
