The Lyrics

As one of the 49er Faithful, I always disliked Raiders owner Al Davis for his litigations and helping to get the Raiders blacked-out due to high ticket prices. But upon his death (1929-2011) Raider Nation must be hurting and Al (sunglasses, sweatsuit, and all) WILL be missed by the NFL. As Head Coach his record was 23-16-3. He took a losing team and turned them around. He was awarded AFL Coach of the Year in 1963 and in 1992 was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He was also the youngest person to hold the positions of coach and general manager of the Raiders in 1963 at age 33. Was appointed AFL Commisioner in 1966 for 6 weeks before resigning and becoming Raiders managing general partner. From 1967-85 the Raiders won 13 division championships, 1 AFL championship, and three Superbowls (77,81, and 84), making 15 playoff appearances. They won AFC championship in 2002 and was one of two teams to play in the Super Bowl for 4 decades (Steelers also). Al started in 1966 towards ruler supreme of the Raides by buying a 10% stake and became partnered with Valley and McGah- was head of football operations. By 1972 he was the new managing general partner and by 2005 had bought out the shares held by McGah's family. Even as football was his passion and his team under his full control, Al Davis was also equally known for his legal battles and team moves. Rising ticket prices also plagued the Raiders who were routinely blacked-out on TV. Yet Raider Nation survived. Through all the grumbling and complaining, Al was the heart of the Raiders and now there is only left a hole to fill. Seems strange to have the Raiders with no Al Davis... he will be missed by many.
NFL will miss you
served your time

Silver and Black villain or hero?
There’s no denyin’
Al Davis was thrivin’

Fans couldn’t stand it
Team movin’ around
Oakland-LA and back
Davis was known for legal showdowns

NFL will miss you
served your time
Just fine

Will miss you
Will miss you
Will miss you
Ruler of Raider Nation
Hall of Famer
Superbowls- three
Team was your passion

Legacy
NFL will miss you
served your time
(made Raider history)

My first sports parody and I am a 49er Faithful commenting on Raider owner Al Davis!!! I used to say, "I wish he would just die" but now that he's gone, there is such a vacuum with our Raider rival. No one will ever replace Al Davis nor his passion for HIS team. RIP Al.

I worked the Bronco game yesterday. Now we all know the rivalry between the Raiders and Broncos....so needless to say that this happened. The announcer asks for a moment of silence for Al Davis. He gets it for three seconds before a bronco crazed fan had to shout (very disrespectfully) "RAIDERS SUCK!!!" which prompted the stadium to laugh. I hate football fans...

SM, am dihard 49er so I was a bit surprosed that Al Davis would be the topic of my first sports parody here! Sports IMHO are more controversial than religion and I do not know what to expect with this parody/tribute to someone I disliked the entire time he was alive. I detest the Raiders too... but now that Al is gone there is a noticable vacuum. He WAS the Raiders sharing in their glory and also causing them so much trouble and pain as well. Kinda like hero and villain at the same time. But he accomplished a lot on his life, so gotta respect the man.
