      Deon brown. As a 55 year raiders fan, I want to thank you for the great things you said about the raiders organization, and history. I'm also aware of the the Packers great history, especially winning the first 2 Superbowls. Wow there will never be another Vince Lombardi. There will never be another Al Davis.

    My mom was a huge Raiders fan, growing up she made me watch games and wear gear. I hated it and I chose the Packers just to piss her off.
    She was so mad I loved it. But I lost my mom recently and now I catch myself watching this, it’s true what Al Davis said once a Raider always a Raider.
    Now I’m going to carry on my mom’s legacy.

    From a Bronco fan, Al Davis is one of my favorite NFL people for the stand he took on racial matters. He did everything in his power to make the American Football League succeed and did NOT want a merger. Those Raider teams of the late 60's-70's were the most feared. He took care of his people.

He always talked about how Al changed the game and how he would take care of his people. Mickey was cut in his 11th year and Davis made him a scout for the rest of his life. RIP Al and Mickey

      He said I was on the Raiders and that’s my ring for winning the Superbowl.

      Al Davis copied the Los Angeles Chargers 1960 original shield logo.
      Al Davis was part of the Los Angeles Chargers coaching staff 1960 birth season through 1962.
      Al Davis then left the Chargers coaching staff in 1962 to become the manager of the Oakland Raiders in 1963.
      Al Davis obviously copied the the 1960 L.A.Chargers original shield logo and added it to the Oakland Raiders pirate logo in 1963 because coincidentally the original 1960-1962 Oakland born Raiders pirate team logo didn’t have the shield logo in their original birth year of 1960-1962
      until Al Davis joined the Oakland Raiders in 1963 then added the shield logo to the pirate logo.
      Raiders copy cat shield logo but the true Original L.A.born Shield logo is the Original Los Angeles Chargers battle horse shield logo.

      Al Davis copied the Los Angeles Chargers 1960 original shield logo.
      Al Davis was part of the Los Angeles Chargers coaching staff 1960 birth season through 1962.
      Al Davis then left the Chargers coaching staff in 1962 to become the manager of the Oakland Raiders in 1963.
      Al Davis obviously copied the the 1960 L.A.Chargers original shield logo and added it to the Oakland Raiders pirate logo in 1963 because coincidentally the original 1960-1962 Oakland born Raiders pirate team logo didn’t have the shield logo in their original birth year of 1960-1962

    Even in the bad years you knew his heart and soul and sweat was dedicated to that team as an owner. Things that worked so well from '67-85 no longer did as much after. Bill Walsh changed the game. Marino and Elway were the great gun-slingers that Davis would have done anything to have had, but it was Montana who won rings. Elway didn't get his until a HOF running back showed up. I wondered what would have happened if he had gone to a West Cost offence mindset, and changing the motto to "Taking what we want, 10-15 yards at a time."
