[Raider] Nation Under Siege

Raider Nation

annual romp to the raiders game with a bunch of undercover brothers set on having a funky good time.

and everything went as planned... at least at the start. a pre-8am arrival led to an extended tailgate that led to boisterous merrymaking and a solid head of steam by kickoff.

but then everything began to unravel.

the offense started sputtering, the special teams gave up three big returns, and the defense finally started to crack.

all this led to a nightmarish second half that ultimately resulted in a demoralizing 24-21 defeat.

and with the team's best player sporting alligators arms reminiscent of ricky waters and saying after the game that he's "just lovin life" and isn't all that worried about football, you'd have to be tatoo'd pretty good not to realize there's something very rotten in oaktown.
