Oakland Raider
fans always look like they’re going on a casting call for Rocky Horror Picture
Show—no costume’s too garish, too bizarre, as long as it can be done in black
and silver, maybe with a skull motif worked in.
Whatever gets you through the day, I guess.
Raiders’ fans
are like A’s fans in thinking—or deluding themselves—that their team is touched
by their quirky displays of loyalty at the Oakland Coliseum. Sorry, but they’re not. If either team could get the sweetheart deal
they dream of, they’d beat out of town without so much as a “Thanks, been nice
to know ’ya.” The Raiders are 9-2 after
a 35-32 win over Carolina at home yesterday, good for first in the AFC
West. Oh, how the Rocky Horror faithful
urged their team on, D-Fence and all that.
Do you think owner Mark Davis cared in the least?
I bet Davis
would take five straight losses if it guaranteed a Raiders’ move to Las Vegas. Any takers?
