Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 37296, member: 40"] I stand corrected, BayonneOrange--Davis, his organization, and visible segments of the Raiders fanbase have been the epitome of class for decades on end. How dare me for expressing an alternate viewpoint given that year of JV football he played back in the early 50s! Davis being an alum does not whitewash the fact that he's been one of the most polarizing figures in professional sports, across any league, for nearly four decades. Pretending otherwise is absurd--alumnus or otherwise. Being an alum doesn't absolve him from criticism--not when he's been a screwball of the highest magnitude for easily more than twenty years. For those in this thread who are uncomfortable with me expressing the above viewpoint because it's "too soon" -- fine. But I certainly do not apologize for having a negative opinion of Davis, in light of the aggregate. [/QUOTE]
