I think the Raider's fans should get the money back; not the team. I mean, think about it, those poor season ticket holders! Raider's fans are some of the most die hard fans out there! They're so die hard that they even took over an entire section in the stadium and renamed it "The Black Hole". Those guys trusted their team to make the right pick at quarterback. They got excited about getting a quarterback at number one overall. They all flock to the stadium to see how good he's going to be. But, they paid for a bunch of crap! They paid to watch someone that was worse then Ryan Leaf! Thats bad! And You know how many more beers they were forced to drink at games just so they could get through it? Probably 10 more....................at least! And at $9 a beer thats alot of money!
Heck, I don't know even know what the Raider's organization is really complaining about. I'm sure their revenue sales increased greatly during the games they had Russell starting! I bet it even doubled for the last three years. And you know what, they owe their loyal fan base an apology! Not only for drafting that bumb, but for paying him all that guaranteed money too! Because, when you pay that kind of money you have to keep starting him and starting him and starting him. Those poor guys..........how they ever got through it is beyond me.
And if they really do get paid more money for cutting Russell then they should, at the very least, give that money back to their die hard/ loyal fans. They owe them that.
