Augie Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 From the looks of their fans, what kind of demand would there be for Skyboxes? If I were there, I'd want somewhere to hide from the rest of that crowd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah John Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 It's incredible with the money flowing through the NFL these days that there's an actual shortage of real dollars. Thanks heavens for the Pegula bankroll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddenboy Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Why doesnt Mark Davis just . . . sell the team? Â Clearly, he has no money. Clearly he likes playing the role of NFL owner. But dood, the emperor has no clothes, and we can all see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsVet Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) It's incredible with the money flowing through the NFL these days that there's an actual shortage of real dollars. Thanks heavens for the Pegula bankroll. Â NFL teams receive almost 190M per year as their share of the TV contract and merchandising. There shouldn't be any teams like the Raiders who are vastly under the cap floor. LaCanfora didn't tell the whole story. It's understandable they need a new home, but everytime I look at Mark Davis I think Lloyd Christmas from Dumb and Dumber. Â So. how does the highly touted Reggie McKenzie still have a job? Last year they went 3-13... Â He seems out of his league as a GM in the NFL. But you've got to give him credit for drafting Carr and making the obvious pick of Mack last year. That said, they have little talent and no one standing in line to change that. Edited March 12, 2015 by BillsVet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Consistent with the article, Mark Davis cant afford to fire McKenzie. Â Davis cant afford to pay off the guaranteed cash for McKenzie PLUS pay millions to the next guy. He doesnt have it. Â Like I said, if he loves the Raiders, sell it to someone who can actually afford to make the team relevant again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ontario51 Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 It's only fair that the tax payer flips the bill for their mismanagement. Quote of the day IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â McKenzie probably isn't cut out to be a NFL GM. I guess the issue I have is Mark Davis inherited a mess and clearly has no clue either about being an owner.

SF Bills Fan Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 (edited) Mark Davis flew on Southwest to go meet with coaching candidates recently. The best thing the Raiders can do is move to LA immediately. The stadium they play in is terrible and outdated even with renovations. Oakland will never pay for a new stadium. They will be worth far more if they move to LA. I hate to see teams move and Oakland is their ancestral home. In this case it is needed.

I would think after all this time that the NFLPA would be all over that mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pirate Angel Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 REALLY! Hows about our awesome "D". Failed us for one of the few times in that game by giving up lots of big plays. Stop blaming Orton for everything. Yes, he was bad at times, but also pulled out several games for us as well. Basically what you would have expected.....Several?
