"People talk about franchise players. I think Al Davis is a franchise owner. He has made many contributions to the American Football League and pro football in general -- as commissioner of the American Football League, as an instrumental figure in the merger of the two leagues , and of course as coach and general manager of the Raiders...he took over in 1963 and immediately made them a winner."A worthy adversary was Coach Stram. He'll be missed.
GO RAIDERS!

I am a Raiders fan and I agree with your comments.
Hank Stram was a wonderful coach.
You have a neat blog.

His Chiefs beat the Raiders in the last AFL game to advance to Super Bowl IV. Madden said he was the one coach he didn't want to face.
