being 30, at least i can taste the glory of the raiders back in 1998 to 2002... gruden part 1 was the best part, the rest lol...Willmark wrote Tue Feb 12, 2019 8:46 am:Yeah... and?
That’s about as “impressive” as a person who posted that thrash about is being the “still the only team to win a SB from LA”.
That’s what we’re reduced to: meaningless trivia and “we have more wins than the Browns!
Sad fact is our past glory is now irrelevant. As anyone under 25 and they couldn’t tell you why the Raiders mattered. I’ve seen their looks of confusion when you mention to them how good we used to be. And to be fair I don’t blame them for their confusion.

The business side of things has to be successful first, and I believe Mark is making it so... I do think the football side of things will come around, just not as quickly as we hope it will.Attyla wrote Tue Feb 12, 2019 8:46 am:actually, he does have experience building a multi billion dollar business. He built the LV Raiders and increased overall value by more than double. And when you look at the other 31 teams, his value in another year will be on par with some of the larger teams in the league. I am not sure how you judge success but from the standards the business world utilizes, he has been vastly successful thus far. The mere fact that people are going to games and filling the stadium to watch also lends itself to success. The only way you could judge him a "failure" is in his win/loss column but that pales in comparison to his financial success. That does not mean we as fans like it, but you in comparison to him are a slug to be crushed under his heel in the world of successful businessmen
