Unlike,say,the red & gold of the 49ers which have become almost invisible recently,Raiderfans are not following a trend or jumping on a bandwagon of a successful period for our team(R.E. New England Patriots)we are committed for life,through good times or bad.<BR/>These ignorant fools who would brush all the glorious history of this team of ours(not Thomas Howards,OURS)under the carpet are idiots,IMO.The wonderful history of the Raiders is what makes this team so special and Al Davis led,financed and sometimes coached our team through all of it.Lets make it clear,I LOVE Al Davis,he is a living legend,one of a kind,a true football guy and if Al ever needs a carer to wipe his arse i would gladly volunteer to do it for free as a thankyou.Without Al there would probably be no Raiders for these bitches to moan about,he CREATED this great team from a tin pot AFL team playing in front of 5-10,000 fans on tiny Frank Yuell Field and we should ALL be forever gratefull.There ,i feel better now!kigleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13964118720076422354noreply@blogger.com
