Al is a badass.

There’s really no other word to describe him.

My name is Al Harrington. I do not get buckets.

Al grasps the big picture; this type of warfare is what he does best so I've confidence the Raiders will come out of this

upheaval in better shape than the teams with unimaginative Owners who stand together chewing their cud like bovine

I thought this was a little dated, but cool nonetheless

the league has already countered by voiding some of the big contracts, most notably Kam Wimbley. Al is the sole owner acting admirably here, as per usual. He thumbs his nose at the league, and unlike Jerry, who thinks and acts as if he writes the rules, Al has changed the rules over time perhaps more than any other single person alive or dead.

I am grateful he’s our owner, and even moreso we don’t have douches like Jones, Brown, or Kraft.

Wimbley's tender was voided

But not the franchise tag.

Sweet. :)

I’ll take 11 players with heart on the field over 11 guys with just talent. Talent is fleeting, it goes away over time. Heart is what drives you to be better. To push yourself beyond what you think your capabilities are. To show us that when you strive, all things are possible.- SMP

Mr Davis represents his fan base well.

I for one am not looking forward to his passing.

What about on the road?

Wouldn’t look forward to being passed by his golf cart.

I'd look forward to that, in fact, several of us wait around after games until Al has passed by in his black Lincoln towncar

sometimes he holds up his hand, mostly he looks straight ahead.
