32. When the owner of your favorite football team

Sun Nov 1, 2015, 01:37 PM

Nov 2015

moves his team out of town, and says the fans in the City suck, and when he says its greener ($$$$) down in Santa Clara, with better fans, after your parents had season tickets for years, they can go suck a rotten egg. The BAY AREA has two football franchises. The RAIDERS did move to LA but they came back. The owner says he will not move the team again. When you support a team that fights for you, you go with who appreciates you more. I LOVE THE RAIDERS. THE fourty niners should change their name to the SANTA CLARA FOURTY NINERS. They can keep them. I have chosen the Raiders not because they are winning now, but because I have always been a pirate at heart, and they didn't turn THEIR backs on their fans, and give them the finger while they were walking out the door.
