"Pillaging Just for Fun"
Mike Mayock spoke with Eddie Paskal of Raiders.com this week and the reticent general manager had a lot to say. Mike expounded upon his off-season schedule and learning from last year’s free agent process.

The 2019 season is coming to a close and the Raiders are faced with some difficult decisions headed into Free Agency. This week we discuss who’s a potential cap casualty and which unrestricted free agents likely to return and those who are free to walk.
It’s Mr. Nesty Time! It’s that time of year again where we hand out player and Pillager awards. Don’t rely on the media and the NFL to crown the victor, leave it to us. We’ll be going over several key categories and deliver our year end Nesty Awards to the players and listeners that are most deserving.
Hey Y’all,
After conferring with Our Fearless Leader Kenny, we thought it would be cool to post the final (“finale”) chapter of Book 1 on PJFF since this is where the 1st posting of the Trilogy began. Don’t worry, I know how y’all hate to scroll down so I am putting in external links as well as a page break!

The Raiders closed a chapter in Oakland and the 2019 season in controversial fashion. In a game with many ups and downs, the Raiders had every opportunity to win it in the end. In many ways, this final game in Denver was a direct reflection of the season as a whole. The Raiders flashed and showed their potential, but failed to live up to it when all was said and done.
I realize that many of you are “done”.
Well, that’s nice, but that’s not how the Pontificator rolls…
This puppy runs until THERE IS 0.0 % CHANCE the Raiders will make the playoffs.
You say there is only a 0.6% chance the Raiders get in?
Well then, yep, you should expect another Edition coming your way soon.
And by golly, here it is…

The end of the Silver Age in Oakland has come. The chants of Raiders will no longer echo through the concrete monstrosity that is the Oakland Coliseum. The end was bitter, controversial, and frustrating. What more could a Raider fan ask for? Kenny, Che, and Bobby return to the Crow’s Nest to share their memories and perspectives of the Raiders’ final chapter in the East Bay.
This Edition of the Pontificator might shock you. Despite the epic fail we have all painfully witnessed over the past three weeks, and everything you have read in the mainstream media, the Raiders are far from dead going into Week 15. Yes, they have a less than 1% chance right now, but that is mostly due to a universal belief that the team has absolutely no chance whatsoever of winning out.
Sure, a 3-game run looks borderline crazy right about now given that the team looks like its running on fumes. That said, let’s also not kid ourselves that any of the remaining three teams we will be facing are anything close to a juggernaut (no Beech).
Everything you will read from here on out is predicated on the belief that we will win out. Now if that upsets you, I suggest closing your browser now. For those of you who have faith that somehow that hurdle can be met, then I invite you to read on and smash-blast the link below… Continue reading “Week 15 Pontificator: The Six Way Parlay©….We ain’t dead yet!”
Alright peoples, there is absolutely no denying that we have witnessed some SERIOUS Faceplant Action over the past two weeks. In fact, in every single loss save for the Texans debacle (thanks #16) we haven’t been competitive (which is putting it kindly). There is no doubt that this is a worrying trend. But, we are the 4th youngest team in the NFL so maybe this is part of the overused “growing pain” process. And for people like Homer (and me) you could look at it another way. For the games we DON’T get blown out in, we end up winning (Texan game notwithstanding).
I invite you to smash the link below and launch into this week’s in-depth Pontificator where I will do what I always do….give you some hope, even when things on the surface aren’t looking so bright…
