Oakland Raiders Owner & Brooklyn Native Al Davis Dead At Age 82
OAKLAND, Calif. — Raiders owner Al Davis, whose NFL legend as a pioneering rebel began 60 years ago as an assistant with the Baltimore Colts and was punctuated with a 1992 Pro Football Hall of Fame induction in Canton, has died at 82.
The team’s website released the news, posting a simple tribute with his name in large silver letters above “July 4, 1929-October 8, 2011.”
“He is a true legend of the game whose impact and legacy will forever be part of the NFL,” Goodell said in the statement.
Davis was charming, cantankerous and compassionate — a man who when his wife suffered a serious heart attack in the 1970s moved into her hospital room. But he was best known as a rebel, a man who established a team whose silver-and-black colors and pirate logo symbolized his attitude toward authority, both on the field and off.

Tiki Barbers NFL Comeback Not Likely To Happen
Tiki Barber’s bid at returning to the NFL can officially be declared a disaster. With the season kicking off this week, teams have finalized their rosters but the former star running back never got any serious interest.
And now one league insider hears Barber is “devastated” and his agent is “flabbergasted.”
According to Sports Illustrated’s Peter King: “I tried to reach Barber on Sunday, but he wasn’t talking. I hear he’s devastated that no team gave him a chance. You might wonder if teams would bring him in after the first game of the season, so his contract wouldn’t be guaranteed, and that could still happen. But with no team calling (agent Mark) Lepselter with even a hint of interest, it’s more likely teams would start with backs who’ve been in some football competition this summer.”
