While he's at it, maybe the greedy little p r I c k will hire someone to teach him how to dress like an owner instead of a clown.

Default Crazy Ownership

Can't believe Mark would do this to the city of Oakland, this franchise is going to go down in Vegas, in 10 years he going to be broke, with no one showing up, dome team don't win Super Bowls. What with Oakland owners, Warriors leave now Raiders, only team left is the A's who don't spend money on there players and not worth seeing. Still a Raiders fan but this sucks.

I will never say Las Vegas Raiders, just say The Raiders. Was going get tickets to some games this year if they stayed, but now forget it, just watch on tv and that will still be painful, thanks Mark.

Hopefully most fans will stay away and start the hurt in Davis' pocket. Bad deal for the fans of Oakland. Not saying what he did was right, but the past mayors of Oakland treated him like crap; Jean Quan, Ron Dellums and Jerry Brown. All were non sports people and all should share the blame. Libby Schaff couldn't offer much of a deal without having any public money to play with thanks to Don Perata and friends decades ago leaving Oakland with a 200 million debt.

I feel bad for Oakland and area residents, but what was the alternative? Isn't the city broke?

No, city in good shape, just they don't want to use tax payers money again on a stadium, they got burn on last deal when Raiders came back in 95, the city still on the hook for $90 million. The city had a plan with Fortress to do a privately funded stadium, but Mark never came to table and talked, he was all in on Vegas, plus Mark Davis wanted land to himself, he wanted Oakland A's gone, can't kick the A's to the curb, there enough land to build two stadiums, there a 105 acres and A's might build in a different location, there suppose announce their intentions at the end of the year. In Vegas he going to be a billion dollars in debt, team could go under in 10 years, hope not but Vegas is not a good deal, still at least three to four years away until the stadium done.

Marshawn While not in his prime he should still be a force to be reckoned with. Da Raiders could use him. I wonder what Seattle wants in trade.

Don't bother, there are tons of RB's in the draft. This would be an Al move.

Just curious how the hardcore Raider fans will support the team now that they are on their way out. I'm not much of a sports fan but I do know the Raiders will never have the fan support they do in Oakland. The Raiders will be in Oakland for at least 2 more years and the fans have the perfect opportunity to let Mark Davis know exactly how that feel. Will most boycott the games,NOT A CHANCE,would love to see that but it won't happen.

There are lots of Raider fans living in other states. Mostly because of California's three strikes law.

Default Lynch

http://sports.yahoo.com/news/marshaw...172204007.html


Forget Lynch, only want him if we get him for a deal, if not get a RB in the draft. I thought Lynch would only play for the Raiders, guess not, or he trying to drive up the price, sorry Lynch, if you want big money not going to happen in Oakland.
