I've been a diehard Oakland Raiders fan since the early 70's, win lose or draw I'll always be a fan, so what if we're 2-14 this year, at least we get first draft pick next year! hehehe

I've followed The Raiders for as far back as I can remember...I grew up near Portland, Oregon, and we didn't have a team there...My ex-stepdad was a Raider fan, and the rest of the family were Seahawks fans, so I sort of grew up a fan of both...Except when they played each other twice a year when Seattle was still in the AFC; I always stuck with the Raiders. I stick with them because I was raised on watching them, my best friend is a fan, and I still love the team and have hope at the start of every season that this one will be different.
Let's hope they make good use of that first pick and get Brady Quinn...Even as a rookie, he's got to be better than what we had at quarterback this year...Cut Aaron Brooks immediately.

Actually I wasn't at first, but when I got involved with this guy, he turned me on to them. And I have watched them ever since, they are plastered all over my other website like mad and I love watching them, but lately they haven't been doing too good. I am sure they will pick back up soon hopefully. Everyone has their days of being in a slump. It seems to be there time to slump. They did come close over the years though.

I have been a Raider fan since my first husband and I moved to Pittsburg to live. He was a Steeler fan, so I had to pick a team to root against the Steelers. I picked the Raiders because they were a rough and tumble team. That was in 1966. I have watched them lose games that they should have won, and won games they should have lost. I have watched them win super bowls, and been very upset when they lost in playoffs. I have been quite unhappy with them the last couple of years.
My husband and I have moved to TN this past year and I have started rooting for the Titans, but there will always be a soft spot for my Oakland or LA Raiders.
