Who doesn't dis the "nation"?

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:11 (eighteen years ago) link

oh dude.

for sure you should not move to oakland.

― nein Socken (nein Socken), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:18 (eighteen years ago) link

It's me that asked about moving to Oakland. And besides their logo, I really don't care about the Raiders.

― [jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:19 (eighteen years ago) link

The little pirate guy is sweeeeet, though.

― [jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:20 (eighteen years ago) link

I thought only people from San Leandro followed the Raiders.

― svend (svend), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:20 (eighteen years ago) link

I thought Hayward.

― [jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:20 (eighteen years ago) link

Raiders are still my favorite team, but the fans (and owner) are doofuses.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:23 (eighteen years ago) link

i spent hours last night at the oakland kaiser emergency room. what a joy that was!

― kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:26 (eighteen years ago) link

I had my big toenails cut off in the Kaiser emergency room, after climbing shasta.

― andy --, Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:27 (eighteen years ago) link

I was there last year. They gave me a lot of Vicodin.

― [jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:28 (eighteen years ago) link

intersting perspective, so you're a doofus.

i'm no doofus. i have faith and a huge heart and i think one day we'll turn this shit around. as soon as we fire norv. cuz we're the underdog. that can kill you. and will kill again. i hope.

― nein Socken (nein Socken), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:28 (eighteen years ago) link

These folks are serious doofuses, and they're definitely not from Oakland. San Ramon, I'll venture to guess.

― andy -, Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:28 (eighteen years ago) link

i saw a hooker there last night. i didn't know hookers had Kaiser!

― kyle (akmonday), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:29 (eighteen years ago) link

Most hookers have day jobs in order to support their art.

― [jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:30 (eighteen years ago) link

"intersting perspective, so you're a doofus."

I ROOT FOR A TEAM THAT ABANDONED US FOR LA AND THEN CAME BACK AND FUCKED UP OUR BASEBALL STADIUM! OF COURSE I AM A DOOFUS!

The vein in Alex's forehead just bumped up against the side of my building.

― [jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:31 (eighteen years ago) link

Haha I'm not mad. Raider fans don't make me mad. I feel sorry for them (us).

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 21:33 (eighteen years ago) link

ihttp://www.alamedainfo.com/Idora_Park_scene_PC.jpg

1929 - Razing of Idora Park is begun to make way for new homes. For 25 years, the 17-acre amusement ground in North Oakland offered a variety of entertainment from roller-coaster thrills to band music and opera. The park existed in an area with Telegraph Avenue, Shattuck Avenue, 56th Street and 58th Street as its boundaries.

The bastards! I never even heard of that park.

― andy --, Tuesday, 20 December 2005 23:28 (eighteen years ago) link

That area is just houses now.

― [jailhouse tattoo] (nordicskilla), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 23:29 (eighteen years ago) link

Yeah I used to live over there. It's right next to Bushrod. The other postcards from that site are really cool too. But a fucking bear pit!

― wmlynch (wlynch), Tuesday, 20 December 2005 23:31 (eighteen years ago) link

i drove past there last night. and thought of the bears.

that novel "Carter Beats the Devil" has some interesting Oakland history in it since it's mostly set there, however, that's the only good thing about the book

― kyle (akmonday), Wednesday, 21 December 2005 16:48 (eighteen years ago) link

I've got that book on my shelf. Someone gave it to me, but I never had any interest in opening it. Maybe I'll flip through it.
