Niccas still say 'homies in the hood' out here And hell yeah the Rams got a benefit from the 'casual push' out here. And that 13 years was real shyt. I always got my Raider gear but it was rather sporadic during those down years.. Plus we got a huge "NWA push" from back in the days as well. Lets keep it 100, not everybody rockin' Raiders shyt was REAL Raider fans as well. You had a lot of cats like Snoop going from the Raiders, to Pittsburgh, to USC, to Dallas, to the Niners, and back to the Raiders again.
you somewhat right, it did get a push as of late, the straight outta Compton movie helped as well too. during that 13 years though i would still say they were the most popular nfl team in the region. it's always been normal as hell to be driving and see Mexicans with the raider decals on cars and shyt, you went anywhere on a game day and you were bound to see people in raiders shyt. you right you see more fans than ever now, but it wasn't like raiders fans were unheard of during that 13 years.
