The Las Vegas...Raiders

Now we have the LA Rams, the LA Chargers (no one in LA wanted the Chargers), & the LV Raiders (doesn't sound right, at all).

My friends in LA didn't really want the Rams either.

Honestly Prowler, doesnt the culture of who the raiders are - fit in perfect with the culture of las vegas? Edgy.

But doesn't it also show the hypocrisy of league brass who denounce gambling?

Deep thoughts by GH.

Was my thought too. It's as good of a pairing as can be. By no means does that say it will last or even be great but on paper it's a perfect match.

We all grew up on the Oakland or Los Angeles Raiders...now they've become a XFL team. The name fits, still doesn't sound right. That would be like taking the Chicago Bears and moving them to Wyoming, or moving the Kansas City Chiefs to New Mexico. Their names fit, still doesn't sound right.

It's like that time Motley Crue got that other singer and tried to be an alternative band. Not really what I'm comfortable with but it's still there. Unlike the Crue, Raiders ain't going back to Oakland. Twice they've left that place. It's like one of Liz Taylor's ex husbands or something. What the hell am I talking about again? Everything is so fuzzy. Fucking Macho Grande...

Roger Goodell hates gambling too. What? A new opening for a team in Vegas? Sure I'll ok that! Cha ching.

I don't think I'll ever get over Macho Grande, those wounds run pretty deep.

I'm talking about these people:

Representing the land of strippers, and hookers, and blow, and sin, and gambling, and UFC and boxing, and extravagant theatrical costumed shows like Blue Man Group or Cirque du Soleil, and giant beers designed for redneck tourists...
