The game has been officially labeled a blackout game since it didn’t sell out meaning anyone within that radius will wait until 10pm for television...By all accounts, the practice on Tuesday was light and done in soft pads.

As reported earlier, Javon Walker became big news Saturday. When ESPN’s Chris Mortensen broke the news about his attempted retirement, we decided to take a ‘wait and see’ approach to the news. Even though it’s rare that Mortensen whiffs, when it comes to the Raiders ESPN has a way of turning into BS-spin...As reported earlier, Javon Walker became big news Saturday.
