    Elevation is gonna be crazy. I watched UFC events in Mexico City and the fighters' gas tanks went 100-0 real quick. With the elevation, Novak will probably be able to boom some 50+ yarders too

    Honestly, as I was typing that, I was realizing that, and hoping no one would catch it. My bad.

    I'm going in, like I do every national TV game, expecting a blowout loss.

    I'll get my hopes up when we keep it close for two quarters, only to become frustratingly mad when we get blown out in the second half. At least I'm off tomorrow.

    I just heard that CW39 will be broadcasting the game tonight starting at 7pm. So if you don't have ESPN your still in luck

    I would normally be pissed but they have earned the right of being an afterthought on Primetime.

    Listening to 610 pregame and there's a BOB quote saying he has to take their shots with the offense, can't dip their toes in the water. I presume this is because the Raiders can put up points, so I get flashbacks to the bad gameplan he had against NE.

    How exactly is it a trap game? A trap game is when you're heavily favored and you let your guard down against an inferior opponent.

    The way the ESPN pregame has gone you would think the Raiders were the only team playing.

    I was down in Mexico City a few weeks ago. I jogged 4 miles one morning down to the Angel de la Independencia statue, from my hotel. I didn't notice a huge difference due to the elevation. People are hyping it up the impact of the elevation more than it really is.

    This is borderline absurd. Got home 30 minutes ago and have seen nothing but Raiders talk...Except of course at the David Carr digs
