Yeah I get funny looks on Monday mornings from the neighbors.

Funny ****, but how true it all is, I wear more black than the guys at the funeral home do, my whole wardrobe is black, with the exception of my Raiders whites.

Kudos - you started my day out right, definitely one of the more entertaining posts!

I have a Golden who's 15 1/2 years old - tough just like his namesake "Howie".

I was already planning to forward it.

My tux WAS Silver and Black

Years ago the phone kept ringing during a Raider-Pat game, finally, I got fed up and answered the receiver with: "This Better Be F@##ing Important!" - it was my mother and her only response was, sorry I thought the game was over

I was deer hunting this year during the first Jets game and called home Monday evening to make sure my wife taped the game. I never read a paper or listened to the radio until I got home. Once I got there, my wife told me to listen to the answering machine. It was full of calls from people feeling sorry for HER because she forgot to tape it and she called everyone looking for a copy. NO ONE felt sorry for me, just HER because they thought she was dead!!!

And Lytle WAS NOT down, Fuqua DID touch the ball first and.....it WAS A F@#$ING FUMBLE!!!!!

Publisher, Ron Shipe. Posted 3/4/2002 at RaiderFanMagazine.com Shipe is the best. Even if he still thinks Q. Jammer, SUCKS. And he does not, wish the Raiders had him.
