    I always liked Papa, but Musburger is a legit 1st ballot HOF announcer on the national level, wheras Papa is a talented local/regional guy. And Flores has really lost a step, or several steps, over the last 10 years. Painful to listen to at times. This Vegas move warrants a marquee coach and marquee announcer. Raider Nation will grow exponentially by the international spotlight of Vegas. Brilliant move financially for Davis and the Raiders

    I imagine that if John Madden was still calling games for us, that he would get the boot too.

    My guess is Mark will not be advocating for Raider greats like Flores, Plunkett and so many others to be enshrined in the Pro Football HOF either. These great players and men who have deserved enshrinement and have been passed over time and again.
