Thus team has been suck for 20 years and you're just now giving up? 

I stopped following after they left LA.  But when Mack and Carr were drafted I started watching a few games again.  This killed that though.

As far as my interests go.  Basketball >>> Baseball >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Football

Antonio Brown to Raiders for 3rd and 5th round picks

The Raiders need to go on a complete house cleaning rebuild. Of their front office.

The problem is that Derek Carr is the one throwing him the ball. That dude sucks.

It's finally official. What was unthinkable five years ago has come to fruition. There was a ceremony at Allegiant Stadium last week with Mark Davis and Jon Gruden in town to tour the facility, and the name has officially been changed on NFL.com: Las Vegas Raiders.

Every time I drive by the stadium site, the progress is visible. Everything is reportedly on schedule.

Things are getting interesting in Vegas.    UNLV students, alums, and players are no doubt happy to be at games that will be much closer to campus than Sam Boyd Stadium is.

THREE teams debut new stadiums (two) this coming season.   No more NFL games in 28k facilities (Chargers), 96 year-old facilities (Rams), or bad facilities (Raiders); and for the Rams and Chargers, no more one home game every season outside the US

Yes, Pittsburgh won that trade.

Went by the stadium site today. Most of the outside glass has gone up, about half of the roof is on, and the lettering is being put up on the outside. Six months from now, real football will be played inside.

[Angel Oracle]

I'll be in Vegas next weekend to check it out.

I-15 and Russell Road, near the south end of the Strip. If you come into town on 15 from the south, it will be on your left.

Why the Raiders gotta be like this?

Or a really smart guy.

Yeah, he’s not likely to survive this, even though it happened ten years ago.

Raiders luck runs out and they lose to the Bengals that just won their first playoff game in 31 years. 

[Vegas Halo Fan]

We're still proud of our guys. With everything that went wrong during the season and during the game, they were still right there at the end.

Dana White’s story fuels speculation that Derek Carr was Tom Brady’s unnamed “motherf–ker”
 

The slow time in 2021 got an unexpected boost when Tom Brady appeared on The Shop and dropped this juicy little nugget regarding his first-ever foray into free agency, the prior year.

“One of the teams, they weren’t interested at the very end,” Brady said. “I was thinking, you’re sticking with that motherf–ker?”

The immediate favorite for the role of unnamed “motherf–ker” became 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. But the reaction over the first 24 hoursfrom folks in league circles centered on Raiders quarterback Derek Carr as the true “motherf–ker.” Dana White’s comments from the first-ever UFC “GronkCast,” claiming that Brady to the Raiders was almost a done deal before coach Jon Gruden blew it up, are prompting many to conclude it was indeed Carr...
