Just goes by whether or not a given location can financially support a team. Not all states have a team, many states have several. Heck, New York state has three teams (New York Jets, New York Giants, and Buffalo Bills), and two of them (NYG and NYJ) even play in the same stadium.

I have no problem with Shell. Only Walsh's tied old offense playbook. And I think Ryan has gotten better. He has scrapped the 3/4 and uses scemes that suit the players. He is starting to look good. I liked Breshnan better. But the D is looking good. We just need a modern offensive cordinator.

I actually want Porter back on the field. I like Walter. Seemed to make some good decisions. Seems to get better. Good arm with a very quick delivery.
The 49ers are the next best team that the Raiders might win against. So I'm hoping.

I don't think 5 games is enough either, but oh well. Personaly i think it should be taken to court. No matter what you guys were saying about romo throwing a punch, and this guy using his foot. There is a huge difference in the eyes of the law. A punch is no where near severe as kicking someone. A Kick can be considered assualt with a deadly weapon, while punching is just aggravated assualt.

The cleats are what really kicks it into being a worse offense.

I did not that mean for that to be a pun, but now that it's there, I think it's utterly hilarious.

Yea thats just adding on, feet is already deadly weapon, cleats are even more-so.

I wonder why this isnt taken into the hands of the law.

Also, considering the fact that he first removed his helmet, then stomped him, you could make a case it has premeditated.

I think premeditated needs to have a lot more forethought, this would still be spur of the moment. If he had been walking around for a week saying he was going to do it, that would be different.

I could care less if it's the longest suspension for an on field incident in league history - that right there shows you that the league disciplines no one.

the guy stomped on someone's face and they had to get 30 stitches, THIRTY STITCHES! Gurode is thinking about pressing charges, regardless they guy should have been arrested, that is more than assault... that ranks right up there with the NBA/Fan brawl, maybe worse... should have been a season long suspension without pay, looks like Fisher and the titans plan to do nothing else to the guy - and no it wasn't going to be based on what the NFL did, he said he would be punished regardless of what the NFL did - so the titans would be punishing him no matter what the NFL did - where is the punishment? having the guy on the field is more important than looking like a stand up guy - again, I hope fisher's family dies in a horrible fiery car crash - O'Doyle rules.

I've never seen anything official that says he is thinking about pressing charges, there have just been people saying that he probably could. Also, I don't think a guy kicking another player and severall teammates running into the stands and assaulting fans aren't even close to being the same.

Anyway, after the game Haynesworth came out saying that this kind of thing is not in his character; since then, word has come out of a ticket he got for road rage recently, and I just saw a video from a 2003 practice where he kicked a teammate in the chest. This guy is starting to look REALLY bad right now.

Fisher said that if the NFL punishment wasnt enough in his mind, then the organization would take action. Again, you are just sounding like an *** when you with harm to his family, what did they do?

30 ****ing stitches and a 5 game suspension is adequate? guess the titans now plan to do nothing about the incident despite statements to the contrary when it happened.... no wonder the titans are the worst team in football - they run a tight ship.

What he did was terrible and if he has any kind of conscience then that should be punishment enough plus whatever the team decides to do. I can't believe you hoped for his family to die because no one should wish that.

I agree with you, right up until you said his family needs to die in a horrible car crash.

Come on man, that's just emotion talking... how can you wan't his kids and wife to die in a car accident, they have nothing to do with this.

I think any thug bastard who does this crap in the NFL, should be in Jail also, but don't bring his (Jeff Fishers family into this!)
