Many other sites violate the rules everyday... There is a big difference between us and the rest though. We’re an accredited media source, not a simple fan site… This site is read by many individuals that could make things difficult for us... Rules are rules, I'm just trying to follow them...

Take photography for example:
When I shoot a game, it costs me hundreds somtimes thousands of dollars to cover one game. Now, since I have all this time and money invested in the pictures I shot, shouldn't I protect those images? In a nutshell, from a photography standpoint, that is what it's all about... Members that post images from Raiders.com's Sideline Pass for example are basically stealing the images from Raiders.com and posting them on the net, which violates their copyright policy...

Make sense?

Interesting... Some people have serious issues with Raiderfans.net. We're the biggest and 'certain individuals' like to take their shots at the big boy on the block... Personally I'm used to it. The site will be 3 years old in September; I could fill a book with stories!

BK, I volunteer to be your caddy for the next game you're taking pics. I'll get you water, film, and make sure the cheer leaders don't get in your way.

The "Banned Of Brothers" site. I still visit there and was involved in a Smak fest tourney....made it to the third round and lost to a Giants fan.....he had me on the ropes and I was trying to 'debate' him rather than smak him, but that's another story.

Later.
