Default Raiders Fans... Posers or ACTUAL Fans?

This is something that has been bugging me for years now.

I see so many people wearing Raider clothing and people with Raiders decals on their cars, custom license plates, plate frames, even as far as tatoos.

Do you think these people are just jumping on a "bandwagon" like everyone else, or are they just posers?

I wanted to post this out there that the Radiers had the WORST RECORD in the NFL last season and have been the laughing stock of the league for the last few years. But yet... people still wear their gear

The Raiders haven't been a decent team since John Madden had color in his hair and coached the team in the 1980s.

PLEASE explain this to me

Those are both awesome reasons to support the raiders.

if u said that to a guy with a raiders logo on his dodge ram... he'd probably kill you.

people with raiders stickers on their cars means they want to beat yer ayas.

i hate the following: raiders stickers, skin, tapout, quicksilver, roxy (although it usually tells me that its a young girl driving the car), SRH..... pretty much anything except for car tuning companies.

i remember certain cars around my area with them, like if they cut me off or talk crap. its a bad thing that you make yer car easy to spot.

there is a H2 with srh VINYL diagonally placed front to back in my area. the guy is soooo GHEY.

oh oh and i dont like that star, i forget what clothing company it represents....im not "with it". and im not a fan of the west coast choppers or whatever... that cross.

k im done.

I grew up on socal and have always been a fan of the home team, but never liked the raiders for some reason.

Most raider fans are pretty hardcore. I wouldn't want to mess with them. While watching the superbowl this year, I was talking to this one girl who is a raider fan. I was asking, so you like the raiders, and she was like, "c'mon now I'm mexican." I don't want that to sound racist or anything, but it holds true for the most part.

who else are LA fans going to root for the St. Louis Rams. ?? ftl.
and for most of the young guys sporting raiders gear its only because the silver in black is so gangsta. same reason why everyone used to wear chicago white sox jerseys.

That's what I was getting at in a way. Let's ask this then, WHY do mexicans like the Raiders so much? (not all of them, but a huge portion of them sport it for that team)

I don't see how quiksilver and roxy fit in your list, considering that they are both worn by kids and adults, and are sold practically anywhere, including nordstrom. You hate everything except for car tuning companies? Sounds like quite a generalization, maybe even reminiscent of an F&F wannabe or something

Believe it or not, I was always a rams fan. Jim Everett, Flipper Anderson, Henry Ellard....

When they had success in St. Louis, I was rooting for them and was called a band wagon fan by some. I've always liked them though.
