Sad news, but somewhat expected. He has looked awful for a few years now. It was just a matter of time.

Despite the recent run of bad football, and some questionable draft decisions, he was one of the most football smart owners in the NFL.

Yeah, this one hurts.

The Godfather's spirit will always be with the Raiders.

A great man. Loyal to his players, except as few, and he Made the NFL.

^ I don't know that I would go so far as to call him a great man. But there is no questioning that he was a great innovator and one of the reasons that the NFL is the best Pro league in sports

Now there's no doubt that Mike Brown is the worst owner in the NFL...
