NFL Week 2 thread -- Tim Couch still sucks

The drive from LA to vegas is 4 hours.

 

I was referring to the drive from Oakland, not LA.

 

I know a Bills fan in CT who has had season tickets for nearly 20 years.

Goes to every home game.

To see the Bills.

 

They fly it. Raider fans flew from the Bay Area to LA up until 1994.
Fans in LA flew from LA to the Bay Area from 1995 til last year. All the time. In droves.

They will fly to vegas.

 

My point being that the trip is twice as long for the fans from Oakland. Perhaps you are right. There is a significant portion of Raiders fandom that is quite insane.

 

I heard on the Raiders radio broadcast Allegient is offering $29 fares from Oakland. That's less than fans paid in gas and parking for a trip to the Coliseum. (Either one).

 

They are insane.

If Allegiant Stadium sounds like a Rams home game the last few years, or the Chargers home field the last few years (scores of visiting fans), anyone can come back and say I told you so.

But I don't think its going to happen.

 

I've watched Louis Riddick on Scott Van Pelt Sportscenter the last few years, and thought he was excellent.
I was expecting great things from him on MNF, like Tony Romo-great. He's not.

He's not bad, or cringe-inducing. I just had expectations of him to be great.

 

I haven't seen many MNF broadcasts because: Booger. But I thought last night's was pretty good, even though it was clear that the network told Griese to "go in there and predict things and give overly detailed insights like Romo."

 

The downside: You’re flying Allegiant.

Allegiant Air under investigation

 

If I'm a Raiders fan, I'm moving to Lake Tahoe to cut down the game day commute!
