April 11, 2010 04/10/10 - Show #270: What The Hell's Goin' On Around Here?
TOPICS: Segment #1: "What The Hell's Goin' On Around Here?" Raider Nation was excited at the beginning of the off-season in anticipation of possible big name free agent acquisitions, especially considering that 2010 is an "un-capped" year. However, so far the off-season has been pretty unremarkable. The Raiders haven't done much other than resign players we already had on the roster. The draft is approaching. Will the Raiders make a big move there? Raider Greg discusses how he and others are feeling about the off-season so far. Segment #2: "Who Should The Raiders NOT Draft?" Raider Greg gives his thoughts on players that he thinks the Raiders should consider in the draft, players we should not consider, and why.

April 02, 2010 03/30/10 - Show #269: Raiders Making A Move?....McNabb?
TOPICS: Segment #1: "Raiders....Making A Move?....McNabb?" The rumors that the Raiders are the "front runners" in the Donovan McNabb derby have been heating up for days, then recently there is no new news. "No Comment" from the Raiders. Everyone is on the edges of their seats waiting to find out what the Raiders will do. McNabb doesn't appear to be crazy about the idea of being traded to the Raiders, the he might not have a choice. Raider Nation is divided on whether or not it would be a good thing. Raider Greg give you the story and his opinion. Segment #2: "JaMarcus Russell is booted from the Jenny Craig plan" Willie Brown said that we would be "surprised" when we see JaMarcus, because one look at him will tell you he has lost a significant amount of weight. However, Tim Kawakami reported that J-Russ weighed in at 271 when he reported to the voluntary workouts. Then another report had him weighing in at 290. He has not been seen in public, other than the "moving interview" he had as he was driving out of Raiders headquarters after his first day there. What is the real story? Raider Greg gives you his thoughts. Segment #3: "The NFL Draft Is Coming!" Who will the Raiders draft? Greg discusses the possibilities, and gives his opinion.

February 26, 2010 02/25/10 - Show #266: Raiders Pre-Free Agency News
TOPICS: Segment #1: "A New Suit For Tom Cable" Randy Hanson has filed suit against Tom Cable AND the Oakland Raiders. The suit filed in Alameda County accuses Cable of assault, battery and intentional infliction of emotional distress. It says the Raiders made only a cursory investigation of the attack and ratified Cable's conduct by failing to discipline him and by not allowing Hanson to remain as an assistant coach. Raider Greg gives details and his thoughts on the matter. Segment #2: "SeaBass Kicked Some Ass" Sebastian Janokowski, who would have been an Unrestricted Free Agent on March 5th, signed a new contract with the Raiders, making him by far the highest paid place kicker in NFL history. The four-year deal totals $16 million, with $9 million guaranteed. Raider Greg tells you why he thinks it's a good deal for the Raiders and for Jano. Segment #3: "Seymour FRANCHISED!" The Raiders placed the "Exclusive Franchise Player" tag on DE Richard Seymour to protect themselves from losing him to another ream without compensation. Seymour was the only one of six franchise players league wide to be given the “exclusive” designation, meaning no other teams can negotiate with him. This move guarantees Seymour $12 million dollars for the 2010 season (if he doesn't sign a long-term contract during the off-season). The franchise tag provides an opportunity for the Raiders to hold on to Seymour while the unstable market shakes itself out. The Raiders can then use the deal signed by other defensive ends to determine Seymour's value. Raider Greg gives you the details and his thoughts on the matter. Segment #4: The Boneline (our toll-free voicemail line) 1-800-620-7181 Here are this week's callers: 01. The "Kelly Raider" 02. Raider Brian from Salt Lake City 03. Raider Jaime from Bakersfield 04.
