Expand Your Silver and Black Vocabulary: Version 3.0, The Spelling Edition

 In this round of the Raider Trivia, I am going to give you hints at a player who's name is difficult to spell. Then you can guss the player and try and spell it without looking it up.

 

So, here we go:

1) Drafted out of Cal, where he was a safety, this Raider is easilly the Pride of the current Oakland Team.

2) This Old Time, In Raider Terms, Running Back scored Two TD's against Minnesota in Super Bolw XI

3) This converted Running Back, originally drafted by Dallas, In his career, caught 461 passes for 5,872 yards and 41 touchdowns

4) This former linebacker, from Long Branch New Jersey, played in four Pro Bowls and was a part f our winning team in Super Bowl XI.


5) This clipboard carrier was drafted in the second round of the 2001 NFL Draft

6) This Raider Great was inducted into the NFL's Hall of Fame in 1988 and was voted into the NCAA Hall of Fame 1991. Now the best receiver in College gets a trophy named after him.

 

That should be a good base. There is nothing worse than spelling your own player's names wrong when writing an article or arguing with another fan. I have a feeling that there will be some 100% marks in this class.

 

Cheers,

Saint

Sorry Saint

But, I have a question that needs a answer it has bugged me all day well, he it goes" Who was the Greatest Undrafted Free Agent?" I really have no clue.

Amazing, Jamarcus Russell hands off to McFadden who pitches it back to Russell who finds Darrius Heyward Bey in the Middle of the Field wide open 30, 20,10,5 Touchdown Raiders! Amazing. This telecast is Brought to you by Cable.

Best undrafted Free agent

That’s really a matter of opinion…Tommy Kelly and Barry Sims were our most recent productive ones, but there have been quite a few.

The List is LONG!!!

Kurt Warner may be the best of the lot, the there these others:

Adam Vinatieri, Rod Smith, Wayne Chrebet, Priest Holmes, Antonio Gates. Jake Del Homme, Tony Romo and Willie Parker.

John Randle is in the running for the best and there is a fantastic group of linebackers, James Harrison, Bart Scott and Antonio Pierce.

This post would not be complete without giving a shout out to Jeff Garcia who is currently on our squad.

Here is a list that you may enjoy reading through.

You can't currently- if you go to Blog Huddle

They are talking abouts ways to fix it like they are trying to make a blog for NFL Rumors and stuff which will be pretty clean.
