The era of the Al Davis Raiders is over.

I admire him for his accomplishments from 1963 to 1986.

Certainly a giant figure in NFL history. My respects to Raider nation.

RIP AD. Even though he went nuts ofter '86 he definitely was a huge influence on the NFL and the way the game was played and managed.

At least until Joe Montana came along and showed what a real winner looks like

How'd I miss that? Subsim Steven's Bowl.

Prediction: Go Team. Everybody is a winner at Neal's house today.

I know the game is over, but the vikes will still find a way to loose.

49ers are 4-1 after crushing the bucs a week after beating the dream team?

Alternate dimension or the rebirth of a dynasty?

I just wish Faith Hill would call Obama Hitler too so we could get rid of another terrible opening song.

Can we stick a fork in the Eagles now at least?

I live in Jersey and there is so many damn pre-season front runners but I rarely hear them now.

I love how the Philly fans are calling for Andy Reids head. Maybe your quarterback sucks? Maybe you guys fumble too much? Maybe you got no running game unless Vick is running it? Maybe your dream recievers can't catch with all that money in thier jock straps?

Hey Philly, at least your not as bad as the Giants or the Jets.

Or maybe you are worse?
