Has a new team player....Carson Palmer. He was great with the Bengals up until the playoff game with the Steelers when he got his legs taken out from underneath him. To me, he hasn't been as good since. Good Luck with the Raiders Carson...

Re: Oakland Raiders

I went to the raiders and seahawks preseason game and they played like highschoolers. My bride and I were at the 45 yard line 10 rows back and found watching the people far more interesting than the game. But in the regular season they seem to have bounced back a smidge. Maybe this will help them, we can sure hope so.

Re: Oakland Raiders

He may fit well with the Raiders. As a long pass thrower it may be what they need since Raiders this year have been a short yard passing team. Would not count him out at this time. Jim Plunkett when he played for the Patriots could not get out of his own way, was not impressive at all, went to Oakland and took them to the Super Bowl.

<--- Chiefs Fan

LOL

How do we become fans? Honestly I call myself a fan, but could care less. Not to be cold, but they could all die in a plane crash today and it would only mean I needed to change my favorite team. I really don't seem to care much. But for now the Raiders are my favorite, but maybe I should change to the Seahawks, it seems easier to deal with. But what the heck is a sea hawk anyway?

One way is how I got my football shoes in High school. They came from Cinci bengals, through a local sporting goods shop. Even though they will never win the super bowl will always follow them.

Re: Oakland Raiders

Do you still have them? I was raised with many of the Oakland raiders as customers and friends to our family and our families business.
I hunted with a few and water skied with a few, but it was the years that Green Bay and Bart Star were top, not so good for Oakland or George Blanda. I guess that dates me. lol......

So, I guess that means that I should be more loyal.....:rolleyes:

Re: Oakland Raiders

Carson Palmer cant really help the Raiders..Sad to say his moon is waning..quickly
And what was the score Sunday....oh yeah....a gazillion to zero

I used to go to the games in LA, when they moved to Oakland, I was done with them
Everytime there was talk of an expansion team for LA, ol Al claimed he should have the right to move back south...shutty

Re: Oakland Raiders

You never know, LA could end up with the Vikings. They still throw a potential move in our face if they don't get a new stadium. They're still talking about a new stadium in MPLS partially being paid for by city taxes or moving out to the 'burbs. They even talked about offering the Vikings the Dome for nuthin' if they signed an agreement to stay in Mn for the next 25 years, I believe.

Re: Oakland Raiders

I was at the Raiders vs Chiefs game. The tailgating was way better than the game.
