Dave,WELCOME BACK! I have missed your posts, such as this one. You have always had a way with words, and very often these words make me smile or laugh. Not that there is anything wrong with that ;-) But your address gives you away. You can't sign as Bill Basu with the email address that was included. LOL To have a war with the Raiders you would have to come to Oakland and hold this "war" on their turf!
