Darren McFadden will soon cause noise, or a media frenzy no matter where he travels.  In order to set the standard I would like to share an announcement by Darren McFadden.

Darren has chose to sport the number 20 on his reebok made, official Raiders team gear. 

This includes his jersey, his equipment bags, and a piece of tape above his locker(not sponsored by Reebok).  This came as a bit of surprise to a large part of his fan base.  A lot of us thought he would wear number 34, with his name on the back as, "Bo, Who?"

I like number twenty, I think it will fit him well. 

To all you Raider fans out there.  Do not go buy the draft "1" jersey, when you are now able to purchase the "real" jersey.

Pre-order one today

  1. I'm glad he didn't pick number 34. He can't measure up to Bo Jackson. Bo was one of the best athletes in professional sports. I'm glad he will try to make his own name instead of trying to upstage Bo in Raider-land.

  2. twoo ..haha many twos. Russel is 2 and Mcfadden is 20.

  3. Lamont Jordan is still wearing #34 at the moment.

  4. the 34 number idea was a joke... 20 is a good choice

  5. And I care why? Who cares what # he wears? (Although I will admit 20 is my lucky#). As long as he's good, any #'s fine.
