The Oakland Raiders Information

In 1982, the Oakland Raiders moved to Los Angeles, California to play their home games at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum; they won the championship the following year. Also that year Al Davis hired future hall of famer Art Shell to coach the Offensive Line. Shell held that position until 1988 when he was made the team's Head Coach. This was momentous as it made Shell the first ever African American Head Coach in the history of the NFL.

By 2000, the Raiders began to reclaim their position among the NFL's greatest teams, highlighted by the emergence of veteran quarterback Rich Gannon as one of the best all-around quarterbacks in Raiders history.

The Raiders are the most litigious team in the NFL. They have been involved in several lawsuits, most famously with the cities of Los Angeles and Oakland, as well as the NFL. Also, they were the only team that was not a defendant in the USFL's ultimately unsuccessful antitrust suit against the NFL; Davis was a witness for the USFL in that action. The Raiders sued the city of Los Angeles over the fact that the city backed out of a stadium deal for the team. After moving back to Oakland, they were sued by the NFL for losing the Los Angeles television market, the second largest in the United States. Their most recent legal battle is with the city of Oakland. In this lawsuit, the Raiders agreed that they would sell out all of their home games, in exchange for the city helping to renovate their stadium. They did this by issuing "personal seating licenses", without which fans cannot buy tickets to the games.
