LA Raiders, to me, just never sounded right. I never owned one article of clothing or anything like hats, posters, etc. that said "Los Angeles Raiders" on it the whole time the Raiders were in LA. Any Raider apparel I owned either just said "Raiders" on it or had the Raider emblem. Don't get me wrong, I was still a fan I just couldn't stand the way "Los Angeles Raiders" sounded.

But, I agree with Poke. Al moved the team once, and it wouldn't surprise me one bit if he decided to move them again. After being a fan of the Raiders all these years, if its taught me one thing, it's to never put anything past Al Davis. Al answers to no one but himself.

I met this......this blank, pale, emotionless face and, the blackest eyes...... the *devil's* eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized what was living behind that boy's eyes was purely and simply.....evil. - Dr. Loomis
