10/14/11 - Show #319: Raiders Win One for Al in Houston plus Browns Pregame

1 hour 32 minutes

TOPICS:

Segment #1: "Raiders win one for Al Davis in Houston"

The Raiders had a VERY emotional win in Houston last Sunday. The game was won on an interception by Michael Huff (being called, "The Immaculate Interception") when the Raiders had only 10 men on the field. Afterwards Hue Jackson told the team that "Coach Davis" was the 11th man on the field during that last play. Raider Greg details the game and we include audio from Hue Jackson in the emotional locker room.

Segment #2: "Amy Trask - CEO on the Go"

The Raiders are in good hands with Amy Trask as CEO. Raider Greg has met her, and tells you his feelings about her. We also include audio of a radio Amy did recently where she speaks of her long relationship with Al Davis and the emotional win in Houston. We also include audio of former Raiders players, coaches, and others who Al Davis' life had touched. We hear reactions from John Madden, Raymond Chester, John Gruden, and Greg Papa.

Segment #3: "Cleveland Browns at Oakland Raiders Pregame"

The Browns are 2-2 and cannot be taken lightly in this game. It will be a special game. There will be special tributes to Al Davis both before the game and at half-time. Raider Greg breaks down this game matchup.
