Took a road trip to Reno on Saturday to hang with some friends and try to make a little cash in the process so I was understandably not available to keep up with the goings on of the Raiders.

In the ongoing saga of the Oakland Raiders trying to get something more than a six pack of Icehouse in return for LaMont Jordan, there are reports that he has a visit coming up with the Detroit Lions.

The Oakland Raiders recently began notifying season ticket holders that a previously ignored city ordinance banning “Amplified Music” was going to be enforced this season. This has caused much consternation among the citizens of the Raider Nation as both DJs and bands like Raiderhed are as much a part of the fabric of the pregame tailgate scene as tri-tip and beer.Once again, another player proves the Raiders are no longer the ‘Bad Boys’ of the NFL
