"That is my last real memory of Al Davis: It was getting dark in Oakland, the rest

of the team had already gone into the showers, the coach was inside speaking sagely with a gaggle of local sportswriters, somewhere beyond the field-fence a big jet was cranking up its afterburners on the airport runway. . . and here was the owner of the flakiest team in pro football, running around on a half-dark practice field like a king-hell speed freak with his quarterback and two other key players, insisting that they run the same goddamn play over and over again until they had it right." - Hunter S. Thompson

Wow, he always seemed in much better health than Ralph, I thought Ralph would pass before Davis. I cant help but think, with his broken hip, Ralph isnt far off. A very humbling moment. Thanks for building this league, to the both of them.
