They go 2-14 and everyone says they hate them and they suck..... they go to the superbowl and you still say they suck. Why all the Raider hate? and please..a little more specific than they suck.

It's not for what they have done in recent years. I think it is mostly for their style of play from many years ago with cheap shots and the like. They weren't very good sportsmen.

I don't hate the Raiders. However, I've attended enough Raiders-Chargers games at Qualcomm to fully understand why other people hate the Raiders. Two words: Raider FANS. A very high percentage of the Raider fans who come to Qualcomm are some of the most slimy, drunken lowlifes I have ever seen.
The Raider fans who actually live in the Bay Area aren't nearly so bad, but way too many Raider fans who live outside the Bay Area are total degenerate morons. And, of course, most of the Raider haters see only the Raider fans who aren't from the Bay Area, and seeing the Raider fans from across the country who do not live in the general vicinity of Oakland is cause enough for anyone to hate the Raiders.

Reason 1: they beat the Redskins in the superbowl back when I was a kid.
Reason 2: I have a friend who is a Raiders fan, and it is fun to take jabs at him.

1. I love the Raiders
2. Al Davis is NOT a racist, the reason why he's a hard @$$ is because in his eye's you have to prove to him and to yourself that your a good player. Don't get me wrong i am piss that he hasn't sign Russel but you can not call him a Racist because someone did not prove to him or them-self that there the player they say they are.
3. I know some people that played for the Raiders back in the day and the only thing they have to say about Al Davis is that He's a business's man and he knows what he wants

I don't hate the Raiders. Jeff Hostetler (QB from back in the 90s) went to my high school here in PA!
Raider hatred is kind of like Cowboy/Patriot/Steeler hatred. You either love the team or you hate the team. It's that simple.

I hate them because them and their fans have extremely bad attitudes towards the rest of the NFL, and we're just returning the favor.
Also, I'm a Broncos fan, so I kinda have to hate the raiders.

Al Davis is a terrible owner, when they were here in LA all Al did was whine about this and whine about that. He is out of touch with the NFL of today, and now I am happy that the Raiders are back in Oakland. My friends and I had a party when they left.
And, by the way, they do suck.

its their attitude and demeanor and al davis. they take pride in being a dirty team back in the day of madden. late hits, cheap shots...and they were happy to do it. and it has followed them. people think the raiders are a dirty team with crazy fans who wear foam spikes and dress like its Halloween. its like the fans even take after davis and his craziness. i mean raider fans are really different from other teams' fans.
