Anyway, i'm a realist I know we have falling on hard times theres no sugar coating that fact. but I wouldnt be a fan if I tucked tail and ran when the going got tough. You of all fans should know that, you gotta defend your teams. The only reason I brought up the past was in repsonse to "sucking the talent and life force out of the best players" I think the raiders have made more hall of fame careers than wasted. And as a organization I stand behind the top people they made the franchise into one of the best in the NFL. If you compare bodies of work to most any other franchise. Just remember nobody stays on top forever and everything comes full circle, with the exception of a few organizations! Oh yeah, I went to one Reign game it sucked! i'm kidding it was cool. Viva ECHL!

And I think the Raiders have been one of the best clubs in football. But live in the now man. Even you have to admitt you are going no where untill Davis no longer controls your team this years draft should be the icing on the cake. As for my beloved hockey and the ECHL. That was a joke between Cheep Seats and I. Where do you think he got that story. I have been a season ticket holder for the ECHL Las Vegas Wranglers for 4 years.

Al is putting you in a bad mood? You wake up in a bad mood! When you say a positive thing about anything (besides philly teams) I'll go in shock. Even with your beloved hockey you cant say anything good about the ECHL.But thats good, gives us something to discuss. Its so easy to kick a team when they are down but if you look at 3/4 of the nfl teams I know the raiders have more super bowls and Hall of Fame players up until Tim Brown who retired what 4 years ago? But its good to know out of all the teams the Raiders and relevant to you and in your head that much, you could have easily said the same thing about any team besides the Steelers. And I know why, 1981 was a long time ago let it go. But in the mean time keep posting your unbiased views and keep reaching for you goal of those NFC championship games, I mean who needs 1 superbowl victory. Its overrated anyway, right?

The plague that is the Oakland Raiders organization is worst then cancer. What once was a first class organization that demanded and delivered excellence now sucks the talent and life force out of even the best players. Warren Sapp, Randy Moss, Jamarcus Russel, Javon Walker, Robert Gallery. I go on for ever. Great players go to the Raiders and seem to play like JV Girls Highschool players. Often times the media makes them out to be washed up or to have personality problems. Funny thing is most of these players return to their previous greatness after they get free from the cript keepers grasp. I am convinsed that Al Davis died in 1985 and has been kept alive by machines and heavy chemicals. How do you build a team or choose a direction with the draft when you go through 5 coaches in 5 years? I have to stop. I am acctually putting myself in a bad mood and I won't let Al Davis ruin my day. OUT It doesn’t matter who they pick, where in the order they pick, or what position they think they need.
