Oakland Fans: This Is Raider Hating at It's Lowest Right Here

I recently posted an article called "10 things I Know Will Happen This Year."

Almost everybody who commented said it was full of respectable predictions. Everyone except for this guy who has been going around B/R fairly mindlessly leaving negative comments on everyone's pages.

I have had extensive relations with this mystery man. His name is Stan Lechler, but I highly doubt he is any relation to Shane, because he is a mixed up Raider Hater. I call him a mystery because he has no articles posted and has no bio information. He has got to be a Chiefs, Chargers, or Broncos fan who is jealous.

Anyhow, I am going to post the enitre conversation that myself, Brent, and Randy have been having with this most interesting specimen. Brace yourself, because this could get ugly.

If you haven't read the article, I will fill you in a little. It is a countdown from ten to one. It has ten different predictions that I truely believe will play themselves out this year. I reffered to them as "as good as gold."

Stan's first post was exactly this:

"Are you sure you follow the Raiders, author?

I believe history has a way of repeating itself, especially when it’s a time proven, no doubt about it, history.

I think you missed the mark in more than a few areas.

10 Al will let Cable coach”?? Al never lets anyone coach. EVER. So why is now different? Because you want it to be? Doesn’t work that way. History says Cable will have the same freedom’s that other coaches had, which is zero.

9. “Guarantee they will show moxy and be competitive”??? Uh, isn’t the truth of the matter that you honestly can’t guarantee anything? Didn’t you feel the same way in prior years? Why is this different? It’s not. It’s preseason. Just means everyone is entitled to dream. Yes, even you.

8. “Russell won’t lose his job” “Russell will be vastly improved.” Again, why? He hasn’t shown a SINGLE THING that says this will happen. For that matter, all that anyone knows is that he stunk it up in mini-camp. I mean completely stunk it up.

7. “3 of the best hb’s in the league”?? And you would be dead wrong. None of them are even close to breaking the top ten, and you think all 3 are “of the best’?? Again, you have zero facts on any of your comments. All dreams. Dreams are just that..nothing more.

6. Chaz? Lol. Oh, ok. Sure, because you say so. Yeah, he’ll be doubled teamed because he just set the league on fire last year, right? Again, for fun, try and offer up something that has some basis to your “dreams”.

5. Ahhh…for many who state “ESPN is BSPN” you counter that with “We’ll make their “top 10 plays”?? Guess you buy into all that. Well, heck. Let me state again, you’re dreamin’. You’ll make it twice, just because the sun has to shine on that pooch’s rear on occasion, which is a rule.

4. You might win two, if the other teams are flat. You now play in arguably the weakest division in all of football. Collectively KC, Den and Oak are about as worrisome as a flea.

3. “Raiders will finish in top 10 in defense”??? Yes, you are a funny guy. Total defense you’ll be around 22 to 25. Rushing defense? You won’t get out of the 30’s.

2. No, Kiper won’t eat his words. Mitchell was on NO ONE’S list because he’s a nobody. Everyone laughed when you signed him. Everyone will laugh at you believing that JUST BECAUSE YOU PICKED HIM, he’s going to now be a stud. Even his own school didn't list him..but hey, because YOU say so, he'll turn heads *rolling eyes*

Dreaming. Offseason Dreaming.. Nothing more.

And dude, you need to put down the Kool Ade. You state Raiders won’t have double digit losses? Won’t be in top 10 of draft? Raiders have done little to fill all those porous holes all offseason. You sign discarded players and now think they are the answer? You state players who did nothing last year are now going to dominate?

And add “It’s good as gold”??

I think you’re in for a rude awakening.

I suspect you already know that."

At first I was a bit taken aback. I didn't understand why Stan felt like he had to post a comment longer than my article to potray his feelings. It perplexed me.

This was my response:

"History is called the past for a reason. Don't write your articles on my pages. You write your own articles douche."

Stan was obviously offended that the author took offense and wrote:
