Amy is great, awesome personality

[@justinedse8435]

Love Trey Wingo. He was always one of the best at ESPN. Now there's nobody there.

[@LeeThatcherlcthatch]

Amy is so well-spoken and intelligent every time you listen to her talking you immediately understand why Al hired her as a CEO and kept her on for 30 years.

[@ronleddy5131]

At times I wonder if Amy would ever reimmerse herself with the Raiders organization.

[@kevinkaatz883]

I miss Al so much, and hearing these stories angers me about the shit- show Mark Davis is running

[@freedomworks3976]

Amy should go back to the Raiders and be there President. She could clean up Marks disaster 😩 😫 😕
