About danny »

I am a fan of baseball, basketball and football. My favorite teams of these sports all have the same parking lot. The Oakland Raiders, A's and Golden State Warriors. I attend 3-5 Raiders games a season, a few A's games and a few Warriors games. I always believe in my teams, no matter who says whatever they say. I believed in the Warriors before the "We Believe" signs and shirts started going around. Some other teams I like are: the L.A. Lakers, Dodgers and Clippers (out of sympathy), the New York Mets (in my hatred of the Yankees), the Boston Red Sox, Chicago Cubs, Atlanta Falcons and the Buffalo Bills.

    New Article: Is Andrew Bailey The Long Term Answer

    The Oakland A's have finally gotten their closer for the future from the sensational season of this young star. Where have I heard that before? Oh Yeah, Brad Ziegler had a great 2008 season ...

    Dang. You are the second Raider fan who has befriended me.

    I've asked the Creator for forgiveness. He has granted it.

    Now I have three Raider friends.

    Hey, Bleacher Report fans, don't blame Danny for being an Oakland fan. I think he mentioned his Dad, a sane and very wise man, is a 49ers fan. Danny is a cool kid. He may be worth rehabilitating.
