The Raider Game Will Be Blacked Out This Sunday:

by Raymond St. Martin (Saint) on Nov 7, 2008 9:01 AM PST

At 2-6 and after chasing away the faithful with a dismal performance last Sunday, this should come as no surprise.

But, it is what it is...huh?

It looks like the out of towners with the NFL Package will need to keep the game thread up to date.

Cheers and Beers,

Saint

Come on now

we were having some good conversations today, I don’t want to hear this kinda talk. I know it’s hard, but to say done w/ this team…..:)

But I do understand your sentiment all too well. I find myself flipping channels too.

Win, Lose, or Tie, Raiders til I die!

I agree

I think I would have preferred Ryan in charge.

Makes you wonder

if the opening Thursday game was a joke by the NFL to have it on primetime?

And by the way

this is what I mean by the Raiders hurting the NFL financially. No game on, no advertisement, no money to the NFL from the networks. This should be cause, haha sorry can’t help myself if you get the joke there, for Goddell to do something.

They couldn't even sell out at 30% off

I work for Alameda County. This week, we got an email that the Raiders were selling tickets at a 30% discount in “appreciation” of our…something. (I deleted the email.) Even with that deep discount, they couldn’t sell out. As a season ticket holder, I can’t say I’m too happy about the diminution of the value of my full priced tickets. But I guess the value of the tickets dropped really because of the play of the team and the general disorganization of the team as a whole.

And it's

this way every year for the last 5, 6 w/ this one. Things have to change. If Davis is supposedly so great, then he should see it’s time for things to change.
