Raiders are not the team for Los Angeles
A solid reason for why the Raiders should not be a serious candidate to move to Los Angeles was justified at last night's preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers.
The nonsense game between the two bay area NFL teams was supposed to be a exciting match for fans to see their teams' progress as they prepare for the start of the NFL season, turned ugly as several fans were shot and beaten by opposing fans.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported that several men were attacked by a Oakland Raiders fan following the 49ers' preseason win over the Raiders.
One man was beaten in one of the stadium's restrooms and another man was shot several times in the stadium's parking lot.
The senseless acts of violence that occurs regularly with Raider fans has stereotyped Raider fans as wild maniacs with no respect and up to no good.
Los Angeles already has its issues with having trouble identifying the suspects who beat a San Francisco fan into a coma at the Los Angeles Dodgers' opening season game in April, and the LAPD does not need more violence at sporting events if Los Angeles has the Raiders as the only NFL team willing to move to the proposed downtown football stadium.
The irresponsible sports fans are already a hand full at Dodgers' games and after the Lakers win a championship since some fans take the streets of downtown and terrorize the surrounding areas through riots.
During the '80s and '90s when the Raiders were in Los Angeles, stories of gang members stealing the logo and colors of the then Los Angeles Raiders, to use as their own began popping up. Then the stories evolved to gang members running around the LA Coliseum causing trouble during the games.
Last night's acts caused by one Raider fan only proves that the fan base of the Raiders is a serious issue and Los Angeles does not need those issues. If anything, the problem might worsen if the Raiders move back to Southern California because the few LA fans who cause trouble will find a way to ruin a wonderful accomplishment for the community of LA and beyond the stay of the Raiders in LA.
The message will continue by people opposing the idea of bring the Raiders back to Los Angeles because residents of LA knows they do not want those wild acts performed by idiot Raider fans happening in their city.
Al Davis, you had your chance in LA, please leave your goofball team where it is at.

Fear breaks out during Mexican soccer match
A chilly reminder interrupted a soccer match in Torreon, Mexico, when a gun battle erupted outside the stadium where Los Monracas de Moreila and Santos Laguna were playing.
A loud noise echoed through the stadium as if it were a bomb, while fans cheered and players ran down one side of the field chasing the ball.
Once everyone inside the stadium realized what was happening, more firearm sounds began breaking out.
The referee blew his whistle warning everyone on the field to get off the field and seconds later the players, coaches and referees are seen taking off to the locker room as the announcers calling the match, are puzzled to figure out what was happening.
Fans are stuck in the stands in fear of what is happening outside the stadium.
The gun war outside was later identified as a gun war with Mexican drug cartels and local police, some reports said.
The gun battle lasted for minutes but the match was paused for awhile and officials felt it was OK to continue the match.
The event that occurred outside the stadium today is only a small reminder of the ugly drug war that has been going on for years in Mexico since President Felipe Calderon announced his pledge to end the drug cartels' organized crime in the country.
The video below is footage of the moments happening inside the stadium during the gun battle outside.
