tend to agree
I was trying to find the Bronco connection before I read the comments. Then I see sczmbz comments and found I wasn’t alone. At the very least, have fun with it and do something like:
Top 10 Ways to Spot aRaiderVandals Fan
OR
Top 10 Ways to Spot a {fill in your most hated SEC team name here} Fan
At least then, there may be some kind of connection.

I'm still wondering what a "tp spot" is.
Here’s number 9: You spell “to” with a p because you were in jail in the 5th grade.
That was a typo boise
Thx for the correction.
As a life long Raider fan, take your best shot.
After defending Boise State and Oakland for YEARS, a top 10 list ain’t squat :)

Im glad you're a boise fan
BUT if you worked with the Raider fans I do, you’d see why I posted this.
......and if you knew the Denver/Dallas/Seattle fans I know, the same thing could be said.
Everybody always thinks the other teams fans are the worst. College/pro same deal.

Two exceptions to this.....
IF your team has lost, it’s time to shut your yap. Duck and Vandal fans never EVER shut up.

Rec'd blue4areason, It doesn't matter what team your a fan of,
There will always be haters. Italian you must work with some Raider haters. LA right? That’s where all that gang color stuff happened.
Question, what team do you align your allegiance too?
If you ever wanted to see Boise St play...may be a good chance. Love em or Hate em, they are always interesting; and now, no matter where you live, "They're Coming To Your City"
As much as I hate to admit it
Im a life long long fan of the team that just went and royally embarrased themselves and their fans in Denver. I never thought I’d be ashamed to be a steelers fan until now. That loss was inexcusable. No way you lose to an 8-8 team-EVER
UGH
I hear you there… I knew with all of the injuries they had they porobably wouldnt make it past the next game but I figured they could at least squeak by Denver.

Good question
Here’s your answer: There is no rational reason. If you come and ask any Raider fan in LA they’ll tell you that they have been told since childhood that they have to be a Raider Fan. When you ask why they stand there with a deer in the headlights look LOL It’s unbelievable LOL
Italian, your Pro football season, wouldn't be near as hateful/fun if you didn't have the Raiders to hate on. So, SHAD AP.
If you ever wanted to see Boise St play...may be a good chance. Love em or Hate em, they are always interesting; and now, no matter where you live, "They're Coming To Your City"
And you Bronco,
Now that Tebow and co. have knocked off the rest of us, your team better go up and kick some Foxborough butt. Show em what AFC west is all about!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Now I really love to hate those guys, even though I like Brady. My step daughter runs around in a Patriot jacket all the time, and she doesn’t even follow football. Her dad was born in SF, and is a fanatical Patriot fan. No reason?
Italian, I’ll take your co workers any day, over that scenario. At least you get to speak your mind. All I can do is roll my eyes.

Why would anybody WANT be a Raider fan?
I’m born outside of Oakland, in a city called Fremont. I support my hometown teams and I dont hop on bandwagons. Being a Raider fan is terrific. Fans sticking thru the losing times is the mark of true fans….

Well, I for one, want to read about spotting Raider's fans.
That way I can find/replace the word Raiders with whomever I am aggrieved with at the moment. But I would like them all at once, rather than be teased with singles every day. Ten days is a long time, especially if one has the attention span of a gnat.
But hey, Italian, if you want to add a spark to every day, you go for it. sczmbz is just not feeling his most cordial self right now. Either that, or I have incredibly bad taste, too, but I don’t think so because I think sczmbz is often a decent guy. :)
(Note the qualifier, sczmbz. I wouldn’t want you to get full of yourself. Now go find your pain meds and relax.)

Pain meds have no effect anymore
I quit taking the stuff they gave me while I was still in the hospital. It’s all muscle aches now. Awful stuff.

Apparently, you do not know the Raiders history as well as you think.
The Raiders have a proud history, but of late (the last ten years) there have been some poor coaching choices made. I personally thought they should have not let Hue Jackson go, he seemed to have them starting to go in the right direction. Unfortunately Al Davis’ son looks to be incompetent at a whole new level.

[cough] Tom Cable [cough]
The battle for hierarchy is more intense the lower the class.
Yes, ex vandal coaches qualify
That one made me sick.

BD,
If you didn’t have the Raiders to hate, your Pro football season would be pathetico, just like mine, so SHAD UP!!!!
If you ever wanted to see Boise St play...may be a good chance. Love em or Hate em, they are always interesting; and now, no matter where you live, "They're Coming To Your City"
Yes, I hate the Raiders(Davis Jr) too, for hiring some JACK(BW), and firing the/our coach.
I thought we’d start mutating into a respectable team again, and no……..

They have 6 conference championships and one of the best overall records....
several hall of famers, and a rich and deep history.

hang in there, warrior. Fans hang tight, like you have been doing.
pretty soon your broncos will have a rich and deep history, too. :)
"Grateful to the friends and the circumstances that enabled me to be a Bronco. I'm just glad I lived to see these days." SeniorChief
Tough year this year
Am no Raider fan but greatly respect a team and its fans for holding onto an identity. At the end of the day you know what the black and silver is all about, and its been that way since, well, forever.
Firing Jackson after just one year on the surface seems dumb and unfair. Not sure if it was the league record in penalties or the coach v management job description disagreement. Losing to the hard charging Chargers in the last game couldn’t be the main reason could it?
Boise State football is akin to molten lava. You can see it and perhaps run from it, but you can't stop it.
I'm tuned in
Where is no.9 ?
I'm the 12 th man its my job its my duty.

What university are the Raiders from?
--To my brothers of FOOL (Fraternal Order of Offensive Lineman - Medio, turpis et arcu agro usque)
University of Idaho: Tom Cable is one of the winningest coaches at 11-35 as the Vandals HC

They said Otis Sistrunk was from the University of Mars.

Number 9
#9. Mailing address contains the word " correctional"
BTW
These are going to get better by the day LOL
Had to do a double take...
thought it said “corectal”. That might be about right, too.

Le sigh...
I wish I could hate on the Raiders but my Chargers are run more abysmally these days.

You kicked our butts when it counted, I guess you owe us that.
I love the Raiders vs Chargers, Broncos, Steelers, and Chiefs rivalry. You guys can talk all your Raider Haider stuff, but that is what makes it fun.
That is what I get so upset about with Boise St haters, is we have all of these “big boys” that talk all their crap, but they don’t play us, so we have to sit here and tweetle our thumbs wondering.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLAYOFFS!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

The AFC West is the closest thing to a college football conference in the NFL...
as far as rivalries and general atmosphere are concerned.

Totally agree.
It’s been that way for as long as I can remember.

4. Takes off shoes and socks when score goes past 10
3. Vehicle blue book-$300. Vehicles wheels and tires $2000
2. Goes to sports bars near bus stops

Hey, #2 doesn't doesn't work for us, its actually a mature intellegent thing to do. Can't have that.
Should be " 2. Has their 10 year old kid drive them home from the sports bar."

RAIDER HATERS
I am a Bolt Head from the word go! I was in San Diego when the Chargers moved from LA. When I got out of the Navy and became a San Diego Police Officer, I knew I would be staying Put for a while. My brother-in-law and I got season tickets, and it was a great hoot to wear our Bolt Head head gear, especially when the HATED RAIDERS came to town. Boy that stadium would rock with the foot stomping in the closed end, when the Raders were trying to score. I watched The Mad Bomber, Daryl Lamonica, Ole Granpa, The snake, and all the others. Big Ben Davidson. The Snake to Todd Christianson fumblerooski into the end zone. There have been several rules changes from games between the two, including that one. Charges Al Davis had the Chargers lockerrom bugged, all those good old day things that make it easy to HATE THE RAIDERS. It was a great rivalry! It has sort of petered out, the last few years, because they were so bad, but it looks like it might pick up again.
I am still a Charger Fan, but my Bolt Head disapeared somewhere along the line.
yes, the AFC West is the closest to being a college football rivalry, somthing like BSU, Fresno, Nevada, and Hawaii. A few years back, I was the head coach for Wilder Middle School. My asst. and I found out we were both Charger fans, he from a later era, but he was also a Raider fan. Boy did we have fun razing each other. Of course that was right in the middle of the Charger win streak, so I got to stick it to him, a lot more. We had fun with it though, We would incorporate plays we saw the two make into our game plan, and it wa great to see our kids carry them out. RIVALRIES, LET’S KEEP EM GOING!
