When in the name of Bob will Al Davis just roll over and die, thereby clearing the way for proper management to come in ...
Next year, death by Stingray :5 (12.8%)
Never, the combination of medical advances and the healing properties of his running pants will keep him going for eternity. :5 (12.8%)
New Year's Eve, some Raiderette will kiss him under the mistletoe, but in an unfortunate burst of testosterone, his heart-like device will short circuit and he melts like the witch in The Wizard of Oz :2 (5.1%)
It doesn't matter. The Raiders will have to be pried out of his cold, dead hands. And any future management will be cursed for eternity. :27 (69.2%)
Total:39


I've been a Raiders fan for the better part of 25 years, since I started watching football. And I don't think my outlook on the team has ever been so bleak, especially this early in the season.

You feel my pain then. The only team that the Lions are ranked better than this year are the Raiders. The Raiders are the Lions Mississippi!

If you have seen the movie Anapolis you will understand the Mississippi comment

You gotta feel for a team that got solidly thrashed by the 49ers. Now that's embarrassing.

Packers fan here, so I know about pain this year. Though at least we have a young team with potential.

Though it was doubtful to start with as to who wanted the first draft pick the worst (Raiders, Titans, Lions, Packers, Texans), I think its safe to say that Al Davis wants it most.

Who are you hoping they take #1 ?

I couldn't care less about fooseball, but death by Stingray is always worth a look-see.

I actually went out on a limb and picked Oakland to win that one. I figured maybe they'd get their **** together and beat a **** of a team like San Fran.

Last time I make that mistake.

Yeah, the Raiders are a total wreck. But I love it that Randy Moss is stuck there. He's an ***.

The sad thing is that the Raiders actully have great players on their team. I think the main problem they have is the clash of egos. Anyways, I have to support my Cowboys (even if they were dumb enough to pick up that reciever whoes name I do not speak).

If the Titans release Haynesworth, I bet the Cowboys will pick him up too. Smiley: laugh

Ack! A Cowboy fan...I've hated you since the early 90's. That was back when the Eagles were real lucky to make the playoffs let alone win when they got there. Had some fun players to watch then though, Randall Cunningham topping the list off. One of the first real running QB's, lot of fun to watch...especially then when no one else was doing it. Until he blew out his knee...Smiley: cry

You should be proud of the Raiders, they have a chance to do something no NFL team has ever done ... go 0-16!

I couldn't care less about the Raiders, but I really want to see an 0-16 team before I die ... Go Silver and Black!

It's hard to beat the 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaneers. They went 0-14.

But wait, there was more failure to be had! They went on to start the 1977 season 0-12.

I less than three mah Chargers.

Although they seem to be just iffy this year. Losing to Baltimore and squeeking by with the Steelers doesn't rest easy for me.

This years raiders may very well be the worst team in the history of the NFL. It's going to take a minor miracle for them to win a game, I really don't see it happening. The plus side to all of this is that if you play fantasy football, and you have a guy that is facing the raiders he is an automatic start =)


All the players should get together and strike until Al Davis sells that f ucking team.

always loved sports.

always loathed sitting on my **** watching someone else play sports.

let jerry springer manage the team. might be worth watching then. the funniest thing to me is listening to someone say "we won", or "we need a better defense".

i keep thinking, does this person actually play on the team? is he a share holder in the team? or is this person just transposing themselves on someone else who is actually DOING something other than sitting on their fat *****

does wearing a team jersey for a team you have never played for really make you a "sporty" person? or is it just a good way to hide your fat *****

well, gotta go help coach my kids soccer team on this fine saturday mourning, dont let your **** get too fat watching someone else do something.

No. 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaners: 0 wins - 14 losses, including 5 games in which they scored zero points. 21 player in injured reserve by the end of the season. Outscored 410-125. By 1977, the losing streak extended to 26 consecutive games.

In reality, NFL teams now are far closer in talent then ever before (free agency), making scouting, strategy and motivation (in a word, coaching) critical.

The raiders are able to attract quality players and they will stand up sometime this season and actually play really well. The raiders are unable to attract enough quality coaches.

actually al davis has been dead for 5 years.

you know you're in tough shape when you play denver who averages 12 points a game, and they are favored by 15.


has anyone seen art shell actually move or speak? is there video proof?


why the hell wouldnt they grab leinart? did they really think brooks was the answer?

lmfao, so true. The Raider's are on the path to become at least the second worst team in NFL history. Personally, I drink a beer every Sunday in the hope that they continue their consistency. I am looking at their schedule right now and the only team I feel they have half a chance to beat is the Texans.... 0-16, I for one am a believer, and I will continue to support their efforts at etching themselves a page in history =)

I just laugh at all the RaiderFans out here in NoCal with their black and silver gear, bumper stickers that say, "Win, lose, or tie, I'm a Raider fan till the day I die." Yeah? Well, for you doofuses who keep pulling for these losers death can't come soon enough. Heh, you guys got shelacked by the 49ers, fer cryin' out loud. I actually believe that there is a large number of college teams and a high school or two that could beat Oakland at this point.
