A decade that began with so much promise devolved into dysfunction and disappointment.
While it wasn’t all bad, the last seven years of the decade have certainly overshadowed the stellar first three.
Here is a look back at the decade that was for the Oakland Raiders with hopes of a better future.
2000
Record: 12-4, AFC West Champions, lost [...]
Congratulations to Nnamdi Asomugha and Shane Lechler for being named to the AFC’s Pro Bowl roster.

In addition, he will have to sit out two more games next year as [...]
Charlie Frye is going to get a chance to exact a little revenge on the Cleveland Browns this Sunday.
