Saw that. My childhood is dying.
He was a real Raider in the truest sense.
RIP double zero.

My high school buddy's dad went to Da U and was frat brothers and roomed with Double Aught. All I got.

John Facenda voice:

"Double ott, Jim Otto, spiritual leader of the Oakland Raiders defined the grit, heart and stallion spirit of the old AFL. "



RIP, #00

And another piece of childhood says goodbye....

He IS Mr. Raiders… rip the raiders from 1967 to 1977 were unreal teams…67,68,69,70, 73, 74,75,76,77 they made the AFL-AFC title game. I know they
Only won one SB but man they were fun to watch.
