While sure to cause household strife across the nation, Team Colors is a vital resource for any Raiders fan with a paintbrush and a free weekend.

Also consider a red & yellow outhouse & K.C. imprinted toilet paper as an accessory.

Now there's a topic for you! Which team do you despise the most? Depending upon how far you go back it could be Pittsburgh, or if you were shaking your silver and black rattle with the pirate logo back then it could be New England. Any AFC West team would do, as well as the whiners across the bay.

Being the "hated Raiders", we don't seem to bring that level of loathing to any opponent. It seems like our division rivals always talk about "Raider week", but we don't get into the same type of frenzy when we play Denver, KC, or SD. I'm talking about the Raider organization here, not the fans obviously. That's one thing I'm hoping that Shell brings to the table - the desire to knock the snot out of our AFC West foes.

As for myself, I'd have to go with the Donkeys. Ever since the non-call on the Rob Lytle fumble, through the Elway years blending in with Shanahan, it's the one team I just can't stand. Put little horsies on my Charmin.

some paint company released a color a few years ago called "Raider Nation Silver." My buds used it to paint the inside of the tailgate RV.

stickum25 is right, people love to hate the raiders, but we don't seem to hate with equal fervor. (how's that for challenging the images of raider fans as a bunch of hateful neanderthals ...) love us or hate us, everyone has an opinion on the raiders. maybe another reason we're on prime time 4 times this year.
