In the 80's, Al Davis put together a team of misfits and ne'er-do-well's and won a whole lot of games.  To the dismay of many, the Oakland Raiders captured the imaginations of urban culture and hip hoppers intrigued by the outlaw culture. Raiders merchandise flew off the shelves all around the country.

Now, of course, the Bengals used to have guys actually getting arrested on a regular basis, and now are getting the reputation as maturing former bad boys with a singular purpose.  But the question remains, will we start seeing Bengal's strips in Chicago's East Side, Brooklyn and in music videos from LA?

Would it be cool to go to Florida and see kids in Miami who've never stepped outside of the state wearing Bengal Stripes?
