and then there's ISIS
If I'm not mistaken they have the earthquake aftermath to deal with now too.
and then there's ISIS
So now you want to join your troll gang sucking off the other trolls on here some more as well as derail YOUR thread about the Raiders.
If ISIS is so important to you, then do something constructive such as what I did, contact your congressman, plus ISIS has it's own thread, re .
But you are too afraid to do that just like you are too afraid to go to a GTG.
Confirmed pussy troll.
What exactly did you say to the congressman?
Did it help?
If not, what's your next move?
Now xmas doesn't want to talk about ISIS anymore.
Make up your mind.
Wrong thread.
I'll answer in the ISIS thread if you ask there.
What are you doing here in this thread while Isis is out there?
i pray to the Lord that xmas can find the path he has set for him
Are you totally dense and obtuse?
Then shut the up if you can't take directions, asswipe!
Well are we supposed to care about Isis to the exclusion of other topics or not?

San Antonio still hopes to bring Raiders to town

The city of San Antonio still hopes to lure the Oakland Raiders to town, and city officials reportedly say they are "still in conversations” with the franchise.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported Wednesday that a new stadium deal is in place for the Raiders that would give the team land and allow for taxpayers to pay off a $120 million debt still owed for renovations.
San Antonio city manager Sheryl Sculley told the San Antonio Express-News that Raiders officials will be in town and plan to attend the UTSA game at the Alamodome.
"I'm not surprised that someone on the council (in Oakland) might make a proposal to them, but what I read in the article, it appeared that there hadn't been any discussion by the council, approval by the council, and certainly not approval by the Raiders,” Sculley said to the San Antonio Express-News.

Raiders still eyeing San Antonio; team officials scope out Alamodome

Apparently, the Raiders' visit to San Antonio in July wasn't just a one-time fling. Team officials were in San Antonio on Thursday to take in a college football game at the Alamodome and the group of Raiders representatives came away "very impressed," according to the San Antonio Express-News.
The visit to San Antonio by the Raiders raises new questions about a possible new stadium deal in Oakland. Earlier this week, a representative for the Oakland mayor's office said a deal had been worked out that would give the Raiders free land in Oakland on which to build a stadium.
Under that proposed deal, taxpayers would be on the hook for $120 million of the costs in Oakland. However, that money wouldn't go toward the new stadium; it would go toward paying off money still owed on O.co Coliseum, where the Raiders and baseball's Athletics currently play.
However, the city of Oakland shouldn't be cheering yet because the Raiders officials who were at the Alamodome on Thursday said there's currently "no new deal in Oakland."
Raiders officials were in San Antonio to watch the University of Texas at San Antonio host Arizona.
Sheryl Sculley, the city manager of San Antonio, told the News-Express that her city is "still in conversations" with the Raiders.
"I'm not surprised that someone on the council [in Oakland] might make a proposal to them, but what I read in the article, it appeared that there hadn't been any discussion by the council, approval by the council, and certainly not approval by the Raiders," Sculley said.
San Antonio city councilman Ron Nirenberg said he thinks his city is still in play to land the team.
"It appears to be a textbook response from a community that is under fire for not getting their stadium situation figured out," Nirenberg said. "Until we are told that San Antonio is no longer an option for the Raiders, I believe we still have to line up all the elements that would make an NFL deal possible here."
The worst possible scenario for the Raiders would be to announce a move before the 2014 season is over. That would put the team in a lame-duck situation and fans would likely be reluctant to support a team that won't be around in 2015.
Raiders owner Mark Davis has repeatedly said he wants to keep the team in Oakland, although he seems more than happy to keep flirting with other cities. Davis did say in February that Oakland was on its "last chance" to keep the Raiders.
The Raiders' lease at O.co expires after the 2014 season, at which point the team is free to move wherever it can find the best deal.
Raiders talk irks some UTSA fans

SAN ANTONIO — The presence of Oakland Raiders officials at UTSA's showcase game Thursday night with the Arizona Wildcats did not sit well with some Roadrunners fans.
As part of the NFL team's exploration of San Antonio as a relocation option, Raiders owner Mark Davis sent Larry Delsen, a business manager and CPA, and Mark Shearer, the club's director of business development, to see the Alamodome in action. City manager Sheryl Sculley broke the news of the visit in an interview Wednesday with the San Antonio Express-News.
“(Delsen and Shearer were) observing game-day operations at the Alamodome and UTSA tailgating,” said Michael Sawaya, director of the City's Convention, Sports & Entertainment Facilities department. “The tailgating experience is very important to (Davis).”
Richard Perez, president and CEO of the San Antonio Chamber of Commerce, left the dome with a wide smile.
Such insignificant news in time of global crISIS
Not to worry, like one reporter said they are not liable to make an announcement of relocation before their last home game in Oakland on Dec.21st for fear of becoming a lame duck team thus causing a loss at the ticket office box.
No but whatever.
