Marcus The G.O.A.T.

Marcus Allen was recently voted the top Raider of all time over on ESPN, despite finishing up with those nasty Chefs. It is hard to disagree, however, because Marcus did it about as well as anybody ever, Silver and Black or otherwise.

    Raiders suck!
    MNF was embarrassing.  So, I cleaned my oven instead of watching.
    Can’t tackle!
    Can’t catch!
    Can’t score!
    Do some got darn trick plays or something…………………

    But yet they get paid. Win or Lose!

    I hate the 49er’s!
    When people ask me who I like, I say I don’t like the niners.

    I question myself after this game on 9-8-08.
