Not sure who is cheering louder - raider fans or the other NFL owners.

I don't follow football but that link sure does list a string of accomplishments, many of which I would think Raiders fans would appreciate?

Fans from which city? He left Oakland after the city spent money on upgrading the stadium, then did something similar to LA when he went back to Oakland.

He was part of a special era of the NFL .

In related news, the Oakland Raiders will finally have a decent and sensible draft in 2012.

Maybe crazy lately, but a true pioneer. He helped bring in the modern era of NFL football. One of the greats and always thought differently.

then did something similar to LA when he went back to Oakland.

And was threatening to move to LA again.

He cost Alameda County a lot of money, but at least Sheriff's deputies make good money arresting troublemakers.

Big business screwing over the public? It didn't begin or end with Al Davis. He was a football powerhouse. Go Raiders.
