Which means I get to hear Seahawk smack talk for the forseeable future.
I will also be treated to hearing how badly my Raiders suck for that same time span.
All I can say is that even though Seattle may have thrown their second string boys in down in Oakland last week for the Pre Season match,
Oakland still got the WIN and I'll fucking take it.
The Wife got tickets for the November rematch and Oakland will be in Seattle to get their asses handed to them while we watch.
In all my years I have never seen the Raiders play, even though I was born in Oakland, we moved when I was still a baby.
Even twenty five years later when I lived in the Bay area, the fuckers had moved to LA and I couldn't see them play.
So I have mixed emotions about this whole deal.
The wife and the kid are going to eat this up and I am happy that they are going to have a good time, it will be something the kid will remember the rest of his life probably.
Me?
I'll be smack dab in the middle of enemy territory with my Raiders gear on and my Raiders attitude shining bright, sober as a church mouse.
When you are a natural born Raiders fan, nothing else matters.
Just win, baby.
And if they don't?
Meh.
I'm used to it now and I was never a huge foot ball fan to begin with.
Motorsports are my thing.
But being born in Oakland automatically makes you a lifetime Raiders fan.
Fuck the Niner's, Fuck Denver and DOUBLE FUCK Pittsburgh, eh?
It definitely has had an impact on my attitude in life though.
You take a lot of shit when you are a Raiders fan and you had better learn to not only deal with it but hand it back hot and heavy.
Anything less is unacceptable.

I knew I liked you for some reason.
;)
I was born there in 60, the same year they came into the AFL.
Sounds to me like we are both getting a little long in the tooth.
Fuck the Chargers.. Going to the Raider Charger game in November. Go RAIDERS!
Fly, Eagles fly, on the road to victory,
Fight Eagles fight, score a touchdown one-two-three.
Hit 'em low,
Hit 'em high,
And watch our Eagles fly.
Fly, Eagles fly, on the road to victory!
E-A-G-L-E-S, Eagles!
Double fuck the Steelers? I had been a life long Steeler's fan. They even won their first Super Bowl on my first wedding anniversary back in 1975. No more. When that asshole Rooney, the Steeler's owner, came out all for Obama and then Obama made him ambassador to Ireland, I started saying, "Fuck the Steelers." Yeah, double fuck them, too !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PS: I still say fuck the Raiders. Sorry....................
