This review is from: NFL Films - The Oakland Raiders - The Complete History (DVD)

This is a Raider Fan's "Must Have" DVD! From the history to the memorable moments, it's all here. For the younger Raider Fans, this also shows the history of the Raiders and you'll see why Raider Fans are notorious for being the most loyal. As a 30+ year fan, it brought back many memories for me and to have it on DVD and not wait for it on ESPN Classics or NFL Network is a real treat. I definitely loved the "Old School" Raiders where crying was not allowed the rules allowed football to be played the way is was meant to be...."Man to Man".

This is two DVD's packed full of Raider highlights starting from the first year in the American Football League up to their last Super Bowl appearance two seasons ago. Special features include pieces on John Madden, Lyle Alzado and George Blanda. Disc 2 has the 1997 playoff game against the Baltimore Colts in Baltimore along with features with rivals like Pittsburgh, Kansas City and Denver. This DVD you will never get tired of watching.

I've been attracted to the smiling pirate image (he is smiling?) of the Silver & Black ever since I was a little kid. I love EVERYTHING here: *especially* the '70s, '80s & L.A Raiders...
*Mentioned on these discs- (usually very briefly)*: early '60s players; Jim Otto; quarterback Tom Flores; Clem Daniels; Art Powell; miserable beginnings; Al Davis' vision of excellence; dramatic turnaround 1-13 to 10-4; AFL-NFL merger; coach John Rauch; Gene Upshaw; Willie Brown; Daryle "Mad Bomber" Lamonica; Warren Wells; Fred Biletnikoff; Super Bowl II loss to Green Bay; infamous "Heidi Game" vs Jets in '68; coach John Madden's incredible 10+year career; George Blanda's miracle season; great games & plays in the '70s; Pittsburgh & "Immaculate Reception"; Miami & "Sea of Hands"; tackle Art Shell; Cliff Branch; Kenny "The Snake" Stabler; Super Bowl XI victory over Minnesota; Dave Casper; in-depth playoff game coverage against Colts in '77 "Ghost to the Post"; infamous Denver non-fumble; San Diego & "Holy Roller"; coach Tom Flores; Lester Hayes' 13 interceptions in '80; Jim Plunkett leads 1st-ever WildCard team to Super Bowl; Super Bowl XV victory over Philidelphia; banning of Stick 'em; Super Bowl XVIII victory over Washington; Tiger Woods= Raiders fan; '80s L.A. Raiders; Howie Long's 8 Pro-Bowls; Mike Haynes= hall-of-fame corner; Marcus Allen's *many* accomplishments; Bo Jackson- 2 sport Pro-Bowl/All-Star athlete; Art Shell- 1st black headcoach of modern era; Willie Gault & James Jett speedsters; Tim Brown; Ronnie Lott; Eric Dickerson; '90s drought; coach John Gruden & team resurgence; Rich Gannon; Rod Woodson; Jerry Rice; 5 Super Bowls/ 3 victories in 4 different decades; Raider Nation; Raiderettes; and more!
