More
Bye, Bye, George
The Raiders trumpeted the arrival of Jeff George. They announced his acquisition at a lavish news conference on Feb. 15, 1997. Team owner Al Davis and then head coach Joe Bugel raved about the superior passing skills of their new quarterback. The salient fact that George had a tarnished reputation with his two previous NFL teams in Indianapolis and Atlanta was of little consequence on this self-proclaimed glorious day in Silver and Black history. Two years later, George has been shown the door. Again. He lasted long enough with the Raiders to demonstrate his shortcomings, football and otherwise.
More
Gruden Era Begins
The Raiders established a seed of promise during their 1998 season. First-year coach Jon Gruden developed a positive attitude, discipline and camaraderie. Gone was the finger-pointing and underachievement of the previous three years. Gone was the sideline chaos from unsuccessful coaching regimes of Joe Bugel and Mike White. Instead, Gruden's Raiders showed resiliency and fortitude despite mounting injuries. More
Death Wish For Bender
Leon Bender's life was busting out with promise. Already a husband and father, he waited anxiously for the start of his playing career with the Raiders. Now those dreams are shattered forever. Bender was found dead on May 30, 1998 in the home of Terry Bolar in Marietta, Ga. The Oakland rookie was visiting Bolar, an associate of Eugene Parker, Bender's agent. The Cobb County (Ga.) medical examiner's office confirmed that a seizure disorder was the cause of death on June 10. More
Adios, Mr. Underachievement
Pro Bowl defensive tackle Chester McGlockton typifies the tarnished image of pro athletes in the 1990s.

More

First, the Raiders took away Larry Brown's job as a cornerback. Then they stripped him of his uniform jersey. And the final insult came Tuesday, June 2, when Oakland released the Super Bowl XXX MVP. More
The Godfather Speaks
Al Davis has laid another seed of mistrust. The Raiders owner was typically evasive when asked if his beleaguered franchise would honor the remaining 13 years of its lease to play at the Oakland Coliseum. "You want to take the president off the front pages tomorrow," don't you?" Davis responded to a reporter's question. "I'm sure Monica (Lewinsky) wants me to do that." More
Taps For Bugel
Joe Bugel is the first Raiders head coach fired by Al Davis after only one season. Hold the sympathy cards, please. Bugel, a decent man and proven offensive line coach, should give thanks for being commissioned to leave Da Silver and Bleak. More
