About Jay »

I'm a hardcore Raiders fan stuck in the Pacific Northwest.

I believe that 2009 is a watershed year for the Raiders... Either we get better, or it's time to nuke and pave from the top down.

And my Huskies hired the the guy Al liked before he brain-locked and hired Kiffin. Go Dawgs!!

Yep, Raiders Garanimals. Mostly home darks. Kaufman jersey, turtle neck, real men wear black, bleed silver and black, hat, skullcap, etc. Am considering McFadden or Russell clothing for next year, but we'll see.
