I remember the Glory Days of Raider nation with Madden, Stabler, Biletnikoff and Blanda. The old stadium that used to sway when the fans got excited. Those were the days.  Al was always a wild card, you never knew what he was going to do and that was one of the reasons I was a Raiders fan.

Just win, Baby!

As a life-long Raiders fan, all I can say is....

MAYBE NOW WE CAN ACTUALLY GET A TEAM PUT TOGETHER WITHOUT THAT NUTJOB SCREWING IT UP.

There, now that that's out of the way, RIP Al.

Even though I'm a die-hard Broncos fan, I'm gonna miss ol' Al.  There's very few owners that are as involved with their teams as he was.  That guy LIVED football.  I hope every team gives him a big  :salute this weekend.  He deserves it.

It has not been easy to be a Raiders fan in recent years.  But it was glorious when we were winning.  Al Davis made that happen and we should not forget that. 

Last play of the game today and the Raiders "Just Win Baby" pulled it off!  I yelled in happiness that we won it in the final moments and not lost it in which was sadly accustomed to in recent years.

Let this be a new beginning for the Raiders.

RIP Mr. Davis.  :pray

OMG Raider... I'm an official Raider Hater. Grew up in San Diego and remember when the Chargers first moved to San Diego back in 63. Never forget that game that year with the Raiders, 2:15 to go in the Fourth with the Chargers down by 20. The Raiders LOST it Raider  :t. Been a Raider Hater ever since that day.

Later,
KayBay   :cool:

Although I was never a fan of his, respectfully I send my condolences to the family of Al Davis and may he RIP.
