Every week i keep up with whats going on in raiderland,i keep reading blog after blog,article after article, and one thing is appearant.....non-Raider fans! Why do they trespass on our sites and try to slander the good Raider name?Why are they tracking our team better than some of us die hards?Why do NE parrot fans respond to every article with the "tuck rule"?Its not like we go on their site and call him the next tony homo!I read somewhere that even a Philly beagles fan was trying to bad talk the Raiders....and we dont even play each other!Really.....I belive deep down inside all those haters is a Silver and Black,Eyepatch wearing MOFO dying to come out!Their dying to jump on our bandwagon!Watch out this year for all the New Raiders fans when we start turning things around!Why else would they be following what we do?! Unless....their getting scared?!Scared of the fact that what Al Davis has been up to may just actually work!Scared that if we begin to succeed theres going to be More Raiders fans at Their home games....With our badboy Black and Silver,Intimidating them at their home while their with their families!Scared that this BLACKHOLE is starting to spread across the country!Thats why NASA's trying to fix the Hubble now!So NON-Raiders can keep an even closer eye on that unkown headed their way!

Im bored of no New Raider news.Nothing New being blogged,soo lets try something fun.What players,past and present,did you wish to see in silver and black?What guys out there just made you always wish he was on our squad?Personally,i've always wanted Ray Lewis in silver and black!His play screams Raider.Eddie George,big,powerful,and made for black and silver type of football.Brian Dawkins...love the guy!Would have died to see him flying around down field.Steve Young.Thats probably the only guy from across the bay I wish we would have stole!Reggie White,Bruce Smith,Derrck Thomas.All scream Raider to me.Hines Ward seems like a Cable guy type.Brian Urlacher could begin playing like he use to with a healthy dose of Cali sunshine.Ed Reed,just like Dawkins....love him.Deion Sanders!I bet Al Davis still has him on his all-time wish list for his speed.Jerry Rice,but that dream already happened.Randy Moss...that dream turned into somekind of one nightstand you wish never happened.Bo Jackson for 5 more seasons.What he could have done.   Anyways,tell me whatcha think.How do you wish was a Raider,past or present,or if your like mel kiper,future.

Police are searching for any one who witnesses the violent crimes against NFL stars of the AFC west.In 2010,star players Phillip Rivers,Ladamian Tomlinson,Antonio Gates,Brandon Marshell, and Eddie Royal were on the recieving end of violent hit and runs with serious injuries.The victims report seeing a Black shadowy figure either behind or flying to them.After the accident the suspect is reported to have stopped and removed the victim from their facemask and sped away from the scene of the crime.Police are investigating a black male,6'1 201lbs named Mike Mitchell.Police also have associated Derrick Burgess and Nmamdi Asomua.If anyone has any evidence that could help this case or provide any evidence before these guys become serial offenders,please call or email the local police.

I know im not the only raider fan who has spent most of this offseason getting prep'd for this years draft.Hours of reading and speculating,comparing stats and video clips.Blogging about who we should pick to better our team.The day comes and BAM!Surprise! I dont think anyone had those 2 projected to be Raiders!I think Alex Mack would have been less of a shocker @ #7!I admit,I was starting to see Crabtree in black and silver (and soo did he!did you see the silver suit?!),but what the Cable guy and Crazy Al did was awsome!Besides getting someone to fill a hole in our roster, they manage to avoid character issue,injury plagued players while making all those "professional"critics who do this for a living look stupid!Lets face it...the reason we all felt ashamed at the picks is because we didnt take the consensus best player.No big names.No crabtree...no macklin,no monroe.Whats that jerk holes name?Kiper?That guys soo full of himself!That jerk hole was bashing us!Everyone...bashing us!You guys read any other team blogs?Bashing us!Why?Because we dont follow trend?!Because our owner and coach KNOW what they want and got it!?Lets check the facts on the guys we were "soo stupid" to pass on.....Crabtree,charater issues on and off the field,coming off injury,played in spread offense,and no 40 time (Als favorite stat!),would command big money just to stay in oakland in the future!Was hyped form the start when all the professional had him as 6'4 (is actually just '6 and a pinch).That spread offense is set up for pass first...were a rushing team.He's a possession reciever...we have a tight end already...and the fact that he was never really happy that he might be a Raider was the nail in his coffin! Monroe....Lets be honest,a guy with a bum knee trying to zone block sounds like a season on injured reserve @ 1st round money! Macklin....I cant say much except he played in the spread also,is a step slower and a notch shorter than Bey.  After rethinking our picks....we did pretty much waht we needed to do!We got our Big Wr for JR,who I agree with the Cable guy...in the spread this kid could have put up simular numbers!Hell...I could of had 400 yds and 8 tds with 40rec as a number 3 Wr in the spread! Let the facts speak for themselves on Bey is the tallest of the 3 and the quickest!And after looking back at the combine,Cable is right,this kids got one of those double clutch 6 speed gear boxes!He's got some top end speed! And every coach will tell you,you can teach catching and route running but you cant teach a guy how to run faster!   Mike Mitchell is the shocker so far!Honestly never heard of him!I follw USC out hear in L.A. and never see the guy play till i came across some youtube highlights on him! WoW! If you havent seen him play,check him out!The guy plays like Fargas on the other side of the ball! A crash test dummy at full speed! And the kid can plain out hit! Everyone compares him to R.Lott or J.Tatum...id compare this kid to Bobby Bousche!He looked like the Waterboy in some of those highlights! And the 1 where he's fronting zone before the snap...and then you see this guy...full speed...through the line...just smash this poor Qb!Hit him soo hard the kid ends up like 6 yds behind the hit! Mike...I never heard of ya,but if you play like this in the pro's,I think you just made me a fan of yours!   Soo relax Raider faithful! We passed on Crabman,but we got some much needed picks,and a couple of good players soo far! Cant wait for the 3rd round to hear what the critics are gonna bash us for! Cant wait...cause if that highlight reel is a sign of the future....Were the ones gonna be doin the bashing come kickoff time!

i knew uncle Al was up to something!Im not surprised as everyone else.top picks request top pick money....i think this kid might be our budget reciever pick.he couldnt possible ask for as much as would be thrown at crabtree or macklin!pick number schmick number!as a raider diehard i will root for you!sign on cheap as possible and lets get to work on those hands!remember kids....the signing period isnt over for a while!and then theres the 2 cut backs in the start of the season.sure we got holes in our team and our owners head but thats beside the point.the answer lies in signing these kids!these top 10  getting rich of these rookie signing bonuses,how do you expect to fill them holes?through the draft?and which ones actually fit.alot of premadonna WRs suck as rookies!like i said, im not suprised!

With the draft 2 weeks away,alot of people are speculating on what were proposing to do with our 1st pick,hers the facts: We have a ton of needs on defense in key positions,SS,DE,DT,and LB. Offensively we really only need a WR who can stretch a defense and can catch. With Cable thinking O-line for '09 in the free agent market,making some pretty good signings if i may say,i believe Oaktown might shock alot of people with this years draft. I really dont see Uncle AL using the 7th pick! Theres too many teams out there that need to move up to sign a QB or OL player! I think were going to trade back this year!Surprise! With the chefs needing a QB,the Buttoneers also,and the Eagles in need of quality youth,i see us moving back and collecting an extra pick to fill a void! Its not a bad move if you look at the available talent that will be around later...and also considerable cheaper than the #7 pick! Trade back with some one like K.C.,or Philly for their 2 picks in the 1st. Pick up Heyward-Bey first,or Mauluga,which ever is still on the board. If we get Heyward, grab Lauretis 2nd, if we get Mauluga grab that WR for Cal State 2nd.That way we just cleared 2 holes with some good quality kids. 2nd round find our SS. AL doesnt like to use high picks on defense too often but I think we could land one of those USC boys here,thats if Cables not holding out till after the draft to bring in "ole horse collar himself "Roy Williams at a veteran discount,or hold out till next year with what we have a grab the real talent in USc's secondary in SS Mays. 3rd round we should be looking D-line unless we picked up Raji's teammate in the 2nd round. In that case we just switch the position pick.5th and 6th are scout specials which i dont think anyone besides someone at the workouts and video screenings can pick. By doing this we can fill our WR,LB,SS and possibly our DL needs.Then again if we take Raji or Macklin/Crabtree 1st round,were putting up alot of money on unproven kids i.e. Alex Smith in S.F. and were still short 1 pick. Raji and Macklin/Crabtree are good, dont get me wrong, but I believe we can get equally talented guys and an extra pick just by trading down, sitting back...and laughing at the Chefs when they spend all that money on 1 of 2 unproven junior college quarterbacks! Tell me whatcha think people ?! Am I crazy look a fox like AL or dumb as dirt like piolli?
