I can't believe it's been 20-21 years since we last won one of them dang things.

"Blalock, now in graduate school at Cal, says he is no sports fan..."

All you need to know.

Everybody can have an off-decade or two.

I see the Raider fans as no different than the Browns' "Dog Pound" or the Redskins "Hogs." With a team name like "Raiders," what do you expect the fans to dress up as.

There's something strange about seeing this on the web site of the Hell's Angels:The words Hells Angels and the Deaths Head Logo are property of Hells Angels Motorcycle Corporation, Inc. ( HAMC). and protected by one or more Trademarks, Service marks, and Collective Membership Marks owned by HAMC. All unauthorized use is strictly forbidden, including reproduction in any manner.

It was kind of like the last time I was in a store and heard a muzak version of "Steet Fighting Man." It just seems weird that the ultimate outlaws apparently have a marketing group and business plan.

Yeah, it does seem a tad odd but the Hell's Angels incorporated decades ago. And from what I hear they 'stridently protect' against any trademark infringement :-)
