Alameda 鈥?If a nuclear bomb set off in Oakland, at least few聽would live to see the aftermath. News is suggesting the Silver and Black are favoring relocation, and alas we will all have to witness the horror. In the midst of meetings with San Antonio city officials and connections to Los Angeles, Vic Tafur of the San Francisco Chronicle on August 13 that the Raiders will not seek an extension on the O.co Coliseum lease expiring at the end of the season. It doesn鈥檛 take the Hubble telescope to see the writing on the wall. Sports Out West asked Raiders <a href=http://www.alportico.net/page.php?sale=True-Religion-Footwear>True Religion Footwear</a> captain , who played his first eight NFL seasons in Oakland and spurned contenders to sign last offseason, his thoughts on the coming Armageddon. The 37-year-old was blunt: 聽鈥淚 think it鈥檇 be devastating.

The city of Oakland is not keen on such a lopsided deal, despite the NFL鈥檚 leverage. Committing large public funds to keep the Raiders with so many other pressing needs may be irresponsible.
