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.

Looks like most of us should be able to see it.  I heard McFadden will be out.

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.

    beast (1h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
    beast (1h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
    Zero2Cool (1h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
    beast (1h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games
    beast (1h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality
    beast (1h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs
    Zero2Cool (1h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
    Zero2Cool (1h) : I literally just said it.
    packerfanoutwest (1h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
    Zero2Cool (1h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
    Zero2Cool (1h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
    packerfanoutwest (1h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
    Zero2Cool (1h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.
    packerfanoutwest (1h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in
    packerfanoutwest (1h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker
    packerfanoutwest (1h) : if bucs win out they win their division
    beast (1h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us
    packerfanoutwest (1h) : falcons are already ahead of us
    beast (1h) : Packers will get in
    beast (1h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen

    Zero2Cool (3h) : We can say it. We don't play.

    Mucky Tundra (5h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games
    Mucky Tundra (5h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.
    buckeyepackfan (5h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.
    Mucky Tundra (14h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan
    beast (15h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings
    bboystyle (15h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in
    Mucky Tundra (18h) : Or ties, but let's be real here
    Mucky Tundra (18h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses
    Mucky Tundra (18h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch
    buckeyepackfan (18h) : Am I wring in saying if Tge Vikings beat The Seahawks, The Packers clinch?
    Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : Agreed; you stinks
    Zero2Cool (21-Dec) : I'm not beating anyone. I stinks.
    Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak
    beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other
    beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)
    Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.
    beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs
    packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.
    beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating
    Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!
