RAIIDRR

The NFL schedule came out this week; my beloved Seahawks play this idiot’s team on November 2nd.  I look forward to the Legion of Boom driving right over them.

Not literally.  After all, I am not a Raiders fan.

Or, as it is creatively (?) spelled here.  The Raiidrrs.




So many things to discuss.  Number 1, The “Raider Nation” is notoriously filled with the stupidest of all football fans, so to find a misspelled RAIIDRR is not shocking.

Play devil’s advocate all you want, I don’t really care to hear your nonsense about how I am making a generalization and “not ALL Raiders Fans are stupid and aggressive and violent”.  Ok, fine, but several years ago two people were shot at a game.  

Shot.  With a gun. 

There are stories about stabbings all the time, and last year a Cowboys fan was beaten until he was unconscious at a Raiders game. 

Let that sink in will you.  They beat a man almost to death and LEFT HIM ON THE SIDEWALK!

Violent and stupid.

Not to mention that Al Davis, the leader of the Nation was batshit crazy.

Yes.  All fan bases have a bit of stupidity in them, only a few have a reputation for trying to kill you.  On a Bleacher Report list of the top 10 meanest fans, the Seahawks 12th Man came in 10th because they are “loud” and make CenturyLink “hard to play in”.  The Raiders were #2 for shooting and stabbing and beating people.

Number 1 was the Philadelphia Eagles because once, in 1968 they booed Santa Claus (who as all reports indicate was drunk and a terrible Santa).  I think, perhaps, Bleacher Report needs to reexamine their ‘worst fan’ criteria.  Perhaps.

For all of the reasons stated above, you should not advertise your allegiance to the Raider Nation.  Wear a jersey, go to a game, even put that hideous sticker (you can hardly see it in the photo but it is there) on your window, but do not commit your Corolla to a life of misspelled mockery. 

These are other plate options that I am 100% sure were tried before our fan got his wish (at the very least these all, plus others surely exist):
                RAIDERS
                RAIDER
                RAIDERR
                RAIDDRR
                RAIDDRS
                RAYDERS
                RADRRRS
               
I have to stop now because I am getting dumber and angrier every second that I participate in this plate lottery.

Would I feel the same way if this person was a SEAHAWK fan?  Maybe not as strongly, but I am fairly certain I would.  I guess it’s up to you Washington to find me a Seahawk plate and see if I can summon vitriol for it.  I assume I will.  As long as it’s stupid.

But for now…

Dear Raiders Fan,


Knock it off, your car makes you look stupid.
