Whats up Raider fans.
Sup everybody. My name is Rick Prudhomme and I live in Minnesota. Born and raised in San Diego/Sacramento untill I moved up to Minnesota 11 years ago. I've been a Raider fan since 1982 when I was seven years old. My older brothers had a big superbowl party with their friends when the Raiders played the Redskins, And I mean literally played them. I guess it was the fact that the silver and black colors struck me when i saw them on the field. It also helped that the first ever touchdown I saw was when Marcus Allen ran right then left for a long touchdown score.
The thing that bothers me the most are pretender fans. When the Raiders were the premier team 5,6,7 years ago I never seen so many raider fans in the state of Minnesota ever. I was thinking WOW, thats great. Everybody cheering GO RAIDERS! But when they started losing they switched teams right away. Their was one guy I knew who things through a couple of years after the Raiders lost the Superbowl. But would'nt you know, the next year I saw him with a Steelers jacket on. I dont think we talked much after that except when I was calling him a buster!
Anyways, I'm glad to be a part of this sight and hope for better days for our beloved Raiders. Remember, Alot of teams in the NFL could'nt wait to kick the Raiders while there down. Charger fans have been giving me so much crap about how my team sucks. And I just shut them up by asking them if they've gottin a Superbowl trophy yet? Every dog has their day where their not so great, But that dog will remember you when it gets back up on its feet and will remember who was their when they were down.
RAIDER FAN 4 LIFE
