These days, the only thing worse . . .

. . . than being a Raiders fan would be to be Bill Cosby. And even then, there are moments when I'm not totally sure of that ;-) . . .

The Raiders were my team when I was a kid

I grew up watching the Snake, Jack Tatum, Bilitnikof (I know I didn't spell that correctly), Ted Hendricks, John Matuzak and all those guys. I loved the silver and black but could not stick with them during the nineties when Al Davis ran the team into the ground. They have still yet to recover :-( Stewart

Fred Biletnikoff . . .

. . . was one of the all-time great receivers, Raiders or otherwise. I never personally saw him play, but remember seeing him on the sidelines in his role as a coach back in the '80s. Didn't have the best legs around, but his hands were like glue. Watta player! My favorite Raider of all time . . . . . . was The Assassin. We will never see his likes again. RIP, Jack.

They were also my favorite team, although...

I grew up in Chicago. Lamonica to Wells and Branch; Charlie Smith going deep out of the backfield; Marv Hubbard; and of course the greatest punter ever!
