Looks like Rayner will be kicking
By Jerry McDonald - NFL Writer
Saturday, October 22nd, 2011 at 10:18 am in Oakland Raiders.
Both the NFL Network and ESPN are reporting the Raiders are planning to sign Dave Rayner to kick against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Rayner by far was the most experienced place kicker of the three who tried out Friday (Rhys Lloyd and Ricky Schmitt were the others) with Sebastian Janikowski ailing with a hamstring injury.
When the Raiders sign Rayner, they’ll need to waive, release or place a player on injured reserve to make room on the roster.
Janikowski wasn’t moving well Friday, and it makes sense to give him the week off and rehab through the bye week so he could possibly be ready to kick Nov. 6 when the Raiders host the Broncos.

I used to play Buddy Guys club on 7th and Wabash…..now here is my question to you….what is right next to Buddy Guys club?
————
I don’t know what is right next door, but I do know that Columbia College is right over there. Also, my old landlord used to be a blues drummer and played with Buddy Guy. He took me to the club once. They called him “Homie”. His name is James Sims.

Judging by the content of his posts, he is drunk 90% of the time that he is in this blog.

What about Pakulak?
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:22 am
Buddy Guy can still bring it. Saw him in Tahoe a few months ago. great show.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:22 am
Cervantes, if this blog was you wanted it, it would be boring as hell.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:23 am
Who do we drop to sign this guy?
Ron Parker?
That only leaves 3 healthy CBs for this game. 4 including Huff.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:24 am
a tltty bar
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:25 am
Is the new kicker a lefty as well?
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:25 am
If Gordon is healthy again, Maybe move Tonga back to PS?
interesting.

ABP,,,if it’s just a city thing and you’re from San Francisco then shouldn’t you be a 49er fan? Of course not! The point I’m making is that wether in Oakland LA or where ever they land I root for the Raiders team not the city. And why you hate LA? What’s up with that my man?
——-
I’m not from San Francisco, I was conceived there, though. My Dad liked the Raiders because he preferred the AFL over the NFL. I never liked L.A. because the fan support was garbage. And, I had always heard how great Oakland fans were.

October 22nd, 2011 at 10:38 am
we should call Morten Andersen, not a strong leg, but an absolute sure leg!
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:39 am
Rayner, I remember was the reason KC lost a game against us, because he missed a short FG..
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:40 am
Raiders offense will definitely have to get inside the 30 yrd line to have a chance for 3… that’s how important jano has been for us this season. .
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:41 am
I like the Rayner signing; he’s a veteran (which means he probably won’t be gripping if he has to make a big kick late in the game) and has a strong leg. Yeah, he can be a little inconsistent, but pretty tough to find a better option right now.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:41 am
You guys vote on keeping/dumping Dakota?
I say he can’t log on unless he’s had 3 jack & cokes! Lol
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:41 am
Morning nation
It is a great day to be a raiders fan.!!
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:42 am
Is That right?? Lmn. .. hopefully its not payback… ill throw rayner off the bay bridge…LOL. .
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:43 am
ABP,,,you’ve fallen for the biggest misconception about LA fanbase and how people didn’t support the Raiders. People forget how hard it is to sellout NFL games anyway let alone a 100 thousand seat stadium (see Dallas). LA always loved the Raiders, point blank. But at the same time if you don’t win people don’t show up (see oakland) but to say the LA fanbase is less passionate about the Raiders than the Bay Area cousins is just offbase. The only reason I brought the subject up is because I see people going Tit for Tat back n forth about it. I just wonder why people get their panties in a bunch so easy.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:43 am
Dakota couldn’t leave if he wanted to. He is only fooling himself.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:44 am

Right, Ted, he already said he’s arrogant, with that comes a good sized ego. Lol
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:46 am
Pretty Rick, you have a point. Basically, it was the stadium that sucked. I was tired of seeing the Raiders go on the road and play against these teams like KC, Denver, Seattle, and Buffalo who had such a great home field advantage because of their loud fans.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:49 am
I expect Tampa to beat Chicago in London. … tampa left on Monday for Europe. .. Chicago left on Thursday. .. .. Chicago’s in trouble. … they left way too late..

October 22nd, 2011 at 10:49 am
Yeah Ghost, whiskey fueled arrogance, that’s always entertaining. He was seeing the ghost of Al.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:51 am
Yup.. I think he regrets some of the al bashing… but that’s on him..
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:52 am
ABP,,exactly,,A 100 thousand seat Stadium for the NFL is stupid. It works for College football but not the NFL. But hey,, don’t hate us because we don’t hate y’all. We all cheering for the same team at the end of the day.
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:55 am
You are a true Class Act Jason Campbell! Speedy Recovery to ya! I Pray you will stay with the Raider Nation!
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:56 am
As much as I knew al davis was doing things I didn’t approve of with the Raiders. .. I couldn’t stand people bashing him… it was like They were bashing on my grandfather. . I hated it… I was 15 yrs old when the Raiders won that ‘83 Superbowl. .. that day was one of the happiest days in my life…. dedicating a Superbowl win for that Guy would be awesome…
October 22nd, 2011 at 10:57 am
Throw records out the window when it’s a divison game. Think we are in for a real close game. Hope we can overcome all the factors from the attention the media this week ,new qb and no kicker.

Losing the superbowl to Tampa took like 10 years off Al Davis life.
October 22nd, 2011 at 11:03 am
I would actually prefer JC move on,, this is now Carson Palmers team, and Jason Campbell deserves the opportunity to be a starter in the NFL and since it won’t be here anymore he gota do it with another team. Whoever gets him will get a class act and a great leader. As long as he doesn’t play against us though.

( vs Chargers last game of the season)
October 22nd, 2011 at 11:09 am
Rayner now only needs Denver, then he has a full house in the AFC West..
My guess, he’ll miss a FG on sunday!
October 22nd, 2011 at 11:11 am
Best time at a game was when we beat the jets to go to the superbowl. On that long td run I dropped to my knees and looked up to the oakland sky with so much happiness.
October 22nd, 2011 at 11:11 am
The Super Bowl loss and the tuck rule did not take 10 years off of Al Davis’ life, prostate cancer did. Which brings up another topic. The breast cancer lobby must be pretty powerful. Everyone is so gung-ho about breast cancer awareness right now. What about other diseases? I guess nobody cares about prostate cancer. We all have fathers too.
October 22nd, 2011 at 11:15 am
As most of you know I don’t post a lot on here so you can only take my opinion with a grain of salt…but we all need dakota on here. Yeah he’s a stupid pompous d-bag always drunk and prob rollin on some oxy and it would be pretty boring without his ignorant opinions. He’s kinda like that one friend in the group that nobody really likes but keeps him around to make fun of him. What else would the drunk bastard do without this blog? Besides…its just a matter of time before he pulls a Heath Ledger!
October 22nd, 2011 at 11:15 am
I agreed with Dakota about Al most of the time but he didn’t see how the 60s Raiders dominated & would have 4more SBs before they actually got one, including the SB after the 76. Rozelle cheated Al out of those plus a chance to get Elway.
Dakota is a little harsh on Al but after Marinovitch/walker/Larry Brown deals I’ve grown towards Dakota & a lot of guys here’s opinions on Al.
RIP Big Al
October 22nd, 2011 at 11:16 am
Hey AP…I didn’t say the Tuck rule took 10 years off Mr. Davis’s Life. I was only saying the Tuck Rule hurt him and I mean hurt him deeply inside.
October 22nd, 2011 at 11:16 am
Thursday at the gym I was talking about that playoff game Bo got injured in I think I was about 15 going on 16yrs old but I remember that game like it was yesterday. Kinda why I have a small hatred for the Bengals. If Bo didn’t get hurt I think we could’ve beat Buffalo. Damn! That one still hurts.

Buffalo losing those four super bowls was poetic justice for that 51-3 thrashing. Now all we need is to see New England in the playoffs to avenge the tuck rule. A regular season win just won’t do it for me,,I wana get’em back with a playoff beatdown.

According to the almightly source wikipedia, the Raiders signed this guy.
He has kicked some field goals over 50 yards, but has had problems with shorter kicks.
Lost his job with KC when he missed a field goal at the end of a Raider game in 2007.
Hopefully, he will want to get even on Sunday. Wonder how long Seebass is out.

It’s a great day to be a Raiders fan. Isn’t it?!
It’s funny how so many people in here whine about how often the refs blow calls…the FTuck Rule game…the schedule-makers screwing us, etc…but, don’t allow Al Davis to feel the same as they do about them.
Big Al felt all of those things, more than any other person on earth…and, even when in miserable health, he continued to reload and come back to try and win. So, he made some mistakes. He knew when he did that, too. At least he never stopped trying. He’s given the team the talent to win again…at the very time a lot of the past 10-years’ power teams are starting to lose some of their mojo.
As in life, many things are cyclical, including in the NFL. Even with a few of the mistakes Al the GM made, Al the Scout’s work was as good as anybody’s in the League, right up to his passing. Very impressive stuff, if thought about objectively. That he did it while running an organization HE built from the bottom-up, was pretty remarkable.
I’ve always said…if it were MY team, I’d do the same thing, right up until I couldn’t work at all. Could there be anything cooler than running the operations of an NFL franchise? No fockin’ way.
Long live Al, and his legacy. Long live Mark…here’s hoping he can keep the team.

He knew when he did that, too. At least he never stopped trying. He’s given the team the talent to win again…at the very time a lot of the past 10-years’ power teams are starting to lose some of their mojo.
As in life, many things are cyclical, including in the NFL. Even with a few of the mistakes Al the GM made, Al the Scout’s work was as good as anybody’s in the League, right up to his passing. Very impressive stuff, if thought about objectively. That he did it while running an organization HE built from the bottom-up, was pretty remarkable.
I’ve always said…if it were MY team, I’d do the same thing, right up until I couldn’t work at all. Could there be anything cooler than running the operations of an NFL franchise? No fockin’ way.
Long live Al, and his legacy. Long live Mark…here’s hoping he can keep the team.

You know how adults used to say to kids…
“Be quiet when grown folks are talking!”
Well if you just became a Raider fan in the Mid 80’s, you should be quiet when people who have been following this team since the 60’s and 70’s are trying to educate people on the true history and legacy of this team.
Even tho sometimes I may disagree with certain things that he says…when BHP talks about the team from a Historical perspective, I shut up and listen, because he is talking about things that happened before I was even born.
It’s called Respect, and some of these posters here need to learn it badly.

Threatening to leave the blog when the Raiders are playing their best ball in 8-years? Makes no sense. It’s like leaving before dessert, even if you’re still hungry.

It’s hard to look at this game with a neutral eye but I see the chefs keeping this one real close. The Jano injury pushes the fear even further…
October 22nd, 2011 at 12:14 pm
The team needs to get their heads right and get ready for a battle this weekend against a division team! This game is important to get a win before the bye week!
They need to go balls out and bring it!
The DEFENSE needs to step it the hell up again and they need to take Bowe out of the equation.
We know Ford can beat any of their CB’s and lets see Moore get the ball and lets hope Boller uses Hagan as his important possesion guy along with Chaz. I would like to see some reverses and WR screens ran with DHB and Moore.
The O-Line needs to get ready to dominate the Queefs weak DLine. We need to see Bush run lower with more power. Can’t be expected to rely on DMC each and every week.
We need to see the return of our excellent screen game also by using all of our RB’s DMC, Bush and Jones!
Put consistent pressure on Cassel from all sides.
Both the offense and defense need to use motion to keep queefs D off balance, because they have been studying for two weeks and the defense needs to disguise coverages in the back end!
Lets go RAIDER NATION, lets WIN this game before the bye week!!
October 22nd, 2011 at 12:15 pm
SharkCatcher,,did they put Carson Palmer back on the game because as of Thursday he was still off the roster, not on free agency either.
October 22nd, 2011 at 12:16 pm
It’s a shame Janikowski’s hurting. Guy is living up to his billing. Glad Al got to see that 63-yard FG, at least. Must’ve warmed his pirate heart like it did mine. Janikowski is the Raiders’ greatest kicker ever, and he’ll keep showing it for a few more years.

No doubt….this game will be close.
We need the DEFENSE to create some turnovers and get a TD if they can and the special teams to step it up again!
Huey and Saunders need to mix it up on offense to keep queefs off balance…that is why Boller needs to start, the whole damn play book can be used.
With Casrson, the whole play book can’t be used!

One more time, it’s BSPN and the NFL network that are reporting this move. And I bet it was Glazer who claims it. But. not any one of our Raiders insiders. Gotta do better than just reporting Janiko couldn’t move well JMac.
The defense pledges to play stronger and more aggressive, one of my inside sources tells me. Holding the chefs down to a field goal.

BHP says he did…and I can’t say he didn’t. But, he’s correct in saying that back in the day, The Black Hole was the entire coliseum, and not just down in the south endzone.
Much like when we started calling Raider Nation Raider Nation…the term just sort of took off. I was just happy being an old-skool Raiders fan. I was part of The Nation before it was called a Nation. And, I was in The Black Hole when it was born, and before it had such a name. Don’t know who really coined the names (even I might have done it, at a drunken tailgate party! But, I didn’t).

October 22nd, 2011 at 1:27 pm
Priest is an old-school die-hard Raider fan.
Just don’t pay attention to his draft takes, because they are always way off.
Just this year alone he told us David Ausberry would lead the team in TD receptions, Wiz 2.0 was a reach and he wouldn’t have taken him there, Taiwan Jones is the next Chris Johnson, DVD will be the next great Raider corner, and even though he never mentioned D Moore until after we drafted him, that he was the first person to tell us how good he will be.
I like reading his posts, and is as die-hard as they come, but he cracks me up most of the time.
October 22nd, 2011 at 1:28 pm
Don’t take this too personal, armchair, but you really do come across as an insecure groupy.
Here you have this bitter codger, bhp, who you bow to, even though he is incapable of actually discussing anything with anyone who doesn’t agree with him, who makes totally false comments about the team, who makes the same comment that thousands make, that “I thought of the phrase black hole” which some haters actually call the organization, others the stadium, others the endzone, who insulted many here who dared to say JaMarcus stunk, while guaranteeing Russell will be great, and you still hang on his sac.

Says he works for the organization.
Says he never worked for the organization.
Says he’s talked with Al.
Says he never talked to Al.
Guarantees Russell will be a superstar.
blames the Raiders that Russell was lazy, and slurping.
Basically just comes across as a bitter old man, who can’t remember what he spewed out yesterday.

October 22nd, 2011 at 1:36 pm
I know about the Senors and about all the back history of the Raiders. Not because I am as old as a dinosaur, but because I love the Raiders and I am interested in their past. It is not my fault that fate didn’t bring me to life sooner. Kinda out of my control don’t you think?
I can appreciate all the old people that were around for the 60s and 70s and before, but that doesn’t make them any more of a fan then those who came along later.
To me, a true fan is measured by how committed they are to their team. If they stick around through the good and the bad. If they do anything they can to make sure they watch all the games if they can’t actually go to the games. If they will let everyone know who they root for no matter what reaction they will get from others. If they take the time to actually research their passion and try to know as much as they can about it.
Besides, respect is something that is earned.

You need to sign out, armchair.
Come back later.
You aren’t doing to well.
Again, I detailed incidents that shoots holes in your comments, and you just come back with weak insults?
Who does that sound like?

Gotta agree that we need to respect our elders, even when we disagree. I have been a Raidr fan since the 70’s, but didn’t have Directv in those days, and I was way too young for a sports bar, and living on the East coast, I remember waiting for halftime updates, hoping the Jets/Giants would get slaughtered so they would cut to another game, and tuning to Channel 3 with a hanger to watch snowy Raiders games from time to time.

lol Hey Artillery Good one and in my opinon that’s called the “good ole days”.

Raider Dee-
It’s called Rosetta Stone. English edition.
Your posts make no sense, and your grasp of basic reading comprehension is even worse.
And EMRaiders,
I don’t care how much someone reads….
Marginalizing Al Davis as just another blip in the history of the Raiders, and ADVOCATING and CAMPAIGNING for the Raiders to move out of Oakland, are clear signs of fake fans to me.
Nuff said.
If they Keep up the fake, mindless, disrespectful, dribble, I’m gonna keep givin em hell!
That’s what real Raiders do.

How do you know when you have someone helpless?
Instead of countering your comments, he points out how to spell groupie.
Well, YOU SURE WOULD KNOW THE CORRECT SPELLING OF THAT, WOULDN’T YOU, ARMCHAIR?
good on you.
Told you. You should have left.
Now you’re just embarrassing yourself.
Please continue.

Now that we have no draft picks, we better get a capologist who can rework contracts so we can at least retain and sign free agents
^^^^^^^^^
We will have draft picks and the Raiders have already calculated this.
They will receive at LEAST two comp picks for losing high priced FA’s Nnamdi and Miller. They may also receive a later pick for losing Gallery.
I think they will receive a 3rd rounder for Nnamdi and a 4th for Miller. Maybe a 5th or 6th for Gallery.
So that means the Raiders will have a 3rd, a 4th (or two 5ths) and a 6th next year 9or two 6ths if they get anything for Gallery)
Plus they can always try and trade up into the 2nd round by using picks in the 2013 draft or trading of players.
Carson restructured down his deal significantly to make it easier on the cap. Seymour and Routt did this year to get Boss in the fold, and I expect CJ and Carlisle to be let go next year. B Campbell or Barksdale to take over at RG and Chekwa or DVD to take over for CJ.
I also expect Wimbley to restructure his contract to make it even more cap friendly, than it already is also when he signed it.

Guess we differ.
I don’t hang out with “groupies” like you.
My Raiders friends aren’t little kiss-asses, like you.
What the real Raiders I know do is back up their words, instead of backtracking.
Oddly, you sound exactly like that old coot, bhp, even though you admit you’re just a little kid.
you sprout off, then get all huffy when challenged to back up your words.
sorry, man, that’s not what Raiders do.
That’s what 49er fans do. YOu sure you’re in the right place?

There’s nothing wrong with defending your team. That is part of being a fan.
Eventhough I haven’t agreed with everything Al has done lately, I do respect the man for what he has accomplished in his life. And yes, to actually experience something live, is a lot better than reading about it. I actually envy the older fans a bit for that. So I agree with you on that statement. But still, just because someone was around longer than others doesn’t make them bigger or better fans.
I don’t remember rooting for the Raiders to move to LA. Eventhough I live here in OC, and it would be a lot easier for me to actually go to games, that is something that I have no control over, and no matter where the Raiders go, I will still root for them.
GO RAIDERS!
PS – for the record, to me, no matter where the raiders go, Oakland will always be their true home. Not because I am from there, but because that is were they were born.

Pssst — It’s drivel, not dribble.

Couple ideas, outside of staying in Oakland or LA long-term…
Rename team as California Raiders, split home games between Oakland and LA. Negotiate a deal with the NFL to take some away games to LA too.
Las Vegas Raiders.
