Al Davis dead

[The Rev]

Good night Mr. Davis. Thanks for some great football, sleep well.

The Oakland Raiders say longtime owner and Hall of Famer Al Davis has died. He was 82.

Davis, one of the most important figures in NFL history, is best known as a rebel, a man who established a team whose silver-and-black colors and pirate logo symbolized his attitude toward authority, both on the field and off.

It was Davis' rebellious spirit, that willingness to buck the establishment, that helped turn the NFL into the establishment in sports – the most successful sports league in American history.

I used to love to hate his teams, they were so damn good and were always kicking my teams ass.

He gave more than one player with a flagging career a chance to shine.  He did a lot for the game and for the league.  It's a loss to football all around.  Even when they hated him, the other teams respected him.  You can't ask for much more than that.

George Blanda and Jim Plunkett come readily to mind, don't they?
