And here I was ready to learn to hate the Bengals because we play this year but it's just so damned hard staying mad at a team who just possibly ROYALLY burned the Raiders with the Carson Palmer trade. I HATE HATE HATE the raiders, not because they are a team to be feared or anything like that, to tell the truth I have yet to see them actually play a snap. I hate the raiders because every fan of the raiders I have ever met is either 20 points shy of the national average I.Q. or just a bandwagon fan cause they think the logo is pretty cool. And for some unknown reason that translates into hate for a team, yeah it is unreasonable and a bit immature but that is just me being me.

So anyways I wanted to see how you all feel about this trade. I personally loved it because it finally put to bed the rumors that he could have been a Seahawk. I was under the belief if we wanted him it would have cost a  3rd and 5th rounder and the Raiders got him for a 1st and a conditional 2nd. So how do you feel?
