The Gipper Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Jesus, I didn't know he was in this bad shape. Too bad, I guess. As far as I knew he was in full control of the team right to the end. Who is going to run the show there now? Does he have a kid that will step into ownership ala Al and Randy Lerner? I have always heard of Al referred to as the "Managing General Partner" of the team, not "the owner". With him gone is there going to be a major power vacuum in the Raiders operations? With him gone who is now going to threaten the NFL with lawsuits? Who is going to threaten to move the Raiders back to LA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheClevelandSound Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Why does everyone think that since someone prominent in the organization died, that they automatically win? They still gotta go out there and play like everyone else. We are equally matched and have an extra week or rest and preparation. I am not worried the slightest bit.

WRREBEL Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Skelator was not healthy... It may actually have a silver lining. I'm in cali and unless they sell out they would be blacked out.. maybe now they sell out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say we are slightly better on defense but Oakland's Offense is light years ahead of the Browns. J Cambell > McCoy McFadden/Bush/Jones>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Hillis/Hardesty DHB/Moore/Ford>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>our motley crew OLine may be a bit in our favor and TE is a wash.

They are looking quite promising nowadays. keeper of the krypt (AD) has been looking pretty rough these past few years but at least he departs with 3 SB rings. I liked his "kiss my ass" persona...jfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know about 8 point favorites, but they will be favored. Add in the Browns have been historically bad on their West Coast trips. McFadden has been running wild the first couple of games.

Kosar_For_President Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Jesus, I didn't know he was in this bad shape. Really, the dude has looked like the cript keeper for the last 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark O Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I thought he died like 4 years ago and they keep propping him up in the owners box like weekend at Bernies ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FYI- the Browns have won 5 of last 7 games vs. the Raiders on the west coast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
