Hey Stanford, love your game.Cant wait for this season. There is alot of talent on that team. I think you are going to have a huge year. You better start checking out some places to eat in Hawaii because I think you will spending a week there this winter.

Also if you like Anthony Hamilton check out the duet he did with Miri Ben Ari (the hip hop violinist). called She Was Just A Friend. Pure sickness.

Stanford i been a raider fan since the early 70's- good times bad times. I know its gonna turn around and am looking for a big year from the revamped Raiders. I think we got the pieces to do something. The Chargers can't get away with running things forever right? I hope you guys can come together, bond and make a push for greatness!

Just wondering which team would you want to beat more during the season? Or if its too much to ask, whats your take on the whole spygate situation?
Reply
- StanfordRoutt replied May 17, 2008
  
  I wanna beat all 13 teams....(3 of them are repeats from the division But you get the point) LOL....
- StanfordRoutt replied May 17, 2008
  
  As far as spygate goes, there wasn't a videotape in the huddle when Brady and Branch were hooking up like that against Philly or when they were kicking those GW FG's to win those titles so I guess the team that won was the team that was supposed to win. U knw what I mean?
  - gdamac replied May 17, 2008
    
    Don't you think in a game decided by 3 pts, knowing the other teams defensive signals might have made the difference? It seems that way from the outside looking in, but you play the game. I feel you though, you could have given a lot of teams all the video they wanted and they wouldn't have won the super bowl.

Welcome to the Yard man. I hope you guys are better this year. I'm a Packer fan but live in Oakland. I get tired of hearing bad stories about Oakland lol. So yea hope you do better.

Mr. Routt,
Hope your having a great week end and getting plenty of rest.
You mentioned last year you felt some plays were a fraction away from going Oaklands way. With Nnamdi and DeAngelo, you'll likley be tested alot this season.
Do you think we've made up that fraction of second and where do you see the Raider secondary in 2009?
With or without Nnamdi?
Thanks in advance,
MVH

  When did I ever mention anything about Oakland bein a "fraction away" and secondly what exactly are you trying to ask me??
  - R8RRESURGE replied June 02, 2008
    
    Sorry. A "thumb and an index finger."
    http://www.realfootball365.com/index.php/articles/raiders/6838
    The artiocle was posted Halloween 2007 at real football 365 and was an interview by Anthony Carroll
    Carroll: How close do you feel the Raiders are to finally becoming contenders again?
    Routt: The distance between your thumb and index finger. We are very close. We show it in spurts all the time. And if you can do it in spurts, then you can do it always. That's the way I see it.
    To clarify,
    Will your team mate Nnamdi sign a long term or be traded in 2009?
    Have a great week and thank you.
    BTW, I called for you in preseason last year even though you had a sore knee. It was obvious Fabs was struggling and frankly, I've always been a fan of yours.
    Peace and thanks again!
JWLinder said May 17, 2008

It's a shame what has happened to the Raiders. I'm not a Raider fan, but this is a franchise that is rich in tradition. They've unraveled like really no team in NFL History--or no team that I can think. 49ers would be in that conversation as well. I'd like to see Oakland bounce back and restore some of their allure that made for some terrific football over the years.

Win the AFC West step #1 Winning the Super Bowl step # 2 Go big or go home right???
With all the new players ( via FA or the Draft ) The Raiders look prime to take the West.
Denver and KC you guys should beat soundly this year. Sandy Eggo is the one Team you need to own.
The HOT ( House of Thrills ) will blow up when you crush the C-Men.
Best of luck and hit it hard and hit it fast and if they get up hit it again.........

What's up Stanford.......our team is finally coming together.....this is our year!!!!! How do you feel about the Raiders being the most hated team in the NFL? I know past player from the late 70's and early 80's loved it and fed off it, just wondering how you feel.

  The Patriots are the most hated team in the NFL now...the Raiders are now just lovable losers (I know you Raider fans won't like that one!) ;)
  - yayarea replied May 24, 2008
    
    So, in your mindset, the Raiders, with 5 SB appearances, 3 SB trophies="lovable losers"......what do you call an expansion team, with 1 SB title, and the Defensive Player Of The Year celebrates the win by getting indicted on MURDER CHARGES????? (I know you Raven fans won't like that one!) ;(

Welcome, Stanford.
The Nation is really getting amped, for the upcoming season. With the additions made to the team this off season. Are you and the rest of the vets getting that feeling also?. And is D Mac as fast as has been reported, at last weeks OTA? Win the division. Sounds good to me, With a home playoff game in the Black Hole. Oh Yeah!

I forgot, you won't get to see how fast D Mac is, until this weeks OTA. Stay healthy man.

Welcome to the Yard, Stanford. I've been a Raider fan for a while and I feel that the Raiders made a lot of progress last year even though the win/loss record didn't show it. I have high hopes for 2008 and I know the squad does as well. I'm always going to support my squad and I've made love for you #26. Go Raiders!

iknwftbl said May 20, 2008

Stanford I wanted to know if you're more comfortable on the outside or in the slot? My opinion is that you have the talent & skill to play both. As always I can't wait for the season to start because I really feel like this will be a far better year and the team has a good mix of veterans & young talent. The secondary that you are a part of will be tough to throw on and give the D-Line and Linebackers more time to make noise.

GO RAIDERS!!!!

- StanfordRoutt replied May 21, 2008
  
  I used to be more comfortable outside but now I'm comfortable in both. I'll always feel more at home outside cause I been doin it since like grade school but inside is just as easy now. Fell me??
