Know your competition this week.

The Oakland Raiders.

When founded in 1960, there was a "name the team" contest and it was held by the news paper "The Oakland Tribune" The winning name was the "Oakland Señors"

After massive objection by the public, and weeks upon weeks of being the butt of local jokes, the team (and its multiple owners) changed the team's name nine days later to the Oakland Raiders, which had finished third in the naming contest. The original team colors were black, gold and white. (The Saints Stole Those Colors)

The greatest team logo (IMHO) of a pirate (or "Raider") wearing a football helmet was created, from a rendition of actor Randolph Scott from a 1945 film "Dead Men Tell There Tales."

Prediction for Sunday.....

It will be the exact same score as Super Bowl II January 14, 1968.

Packers 33 Raiders 14.

Nobody's gonna make that mistake again.

Nice perk about that job was I got the paper for free. No, it wasn't a good paper. But when one thinks of "Sports Page," in the SF area, the Oakland Tribune kicked everyone's ass.

Then the USA Today came out and they had color pictures. Big freaking deal. They still couldn't write worth a damn and didn't really know sports. The Oakland Tribune on the other hand knew sports.

Then of course, the papers started dying because of the internet. Still, I'll always have a soft spot for that newspaper.

I had no idea that the Raiders were named because of a contest in the Tribune. That deserves a slapnuts. Heh. Glad that the original name didn't stick.

    dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri
    Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?
    beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.
    beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.
