Imagine if we knew that the Seahawks would be in Oklahoma City next year?

I’m so thankful for PA

To be honest I’d jump ship, probably become a Texan, or Saints fan.

Wonder what Raider Nation will do?
How many stay with the team?

Well at least they are going to a place within driving distance and awesome to visit

Very different from a Seattle team moving to Oklahoma

If Sonics has moved to Portland things would have been different and with football you only make the trip 8 times per year

Well I concede, OKC might not have been the best to use but the fact remains (for me), I’m a SEATTLE Seahawks fan.

Don’t think I could stay, even if they were in Portland or Vancouver BC.

This will be at least the 2d time this has happened.

They should be used to how the Davis clan treats its fans.

I think Vegas is cesspool of crapness, but to each their own.

Oakland to Vegas is about an 8 hour drive, not that driving friendly.

Welcome to the crappiest home field advantage in football.
Every visiting team fan base is going to circle that game against LV as the one road game to go to and make a party out of it. They'll save all year and pay whatever for seats. It would be a good investment to be a season ticket holder there.

They will have no problem getting Raider fans to the new Vegas home. They traveled in mass when they were in Los Angeles, which is only a few hours drive less than to Vegas.

Since I have been to Oakland I should have known that. For some reason I forgot where it was and was thinking LA

Thanks for correction - ok they are within flying distance :)

For the life of me I can really figure out why so many fans are still at the stadium supporting the team and owner who is moving them to damn Vegas.. Bunch of sheep

That stadium was rocking last night. Too bad they could only play one half of football!

It seems to me that the Raiders are tanking. (Which is a good idea).

I think they need to Re-Brand and go with a "Golden Knights" color scheme. Gold and Black.

I’d venture a guess that Chucky will do a complete rebuild after this season.

I doubt he keeps more than a handful of the current roster.

If your talking, “tank”for a “first” that’s within The realm of possibility.

Guess we’ll see.

I feel as though Raiders random is a lot like Cowgirls fandom, in which culture plays more into it than geography. That culture just happens to be lowlife and thuggish. Of course, that doesn't stop me from rooting for the Raiders whenever they play the Cowgirls.

I dont feel sorry for them at all.

I wonder if they brought in chucky for a tank job because they knew that the Fisherman was done with the tank job and was found out in St Louis/L.A. areas.

You can only suck for luck one time....then you suck for different reasons.
