David Paul Morris/Getty Images The Raiders are in the perfect location residing in Northern California. They have a cross-town rival, the 49ers">San Francisco 49ers, and they each attract a different crowd.

The city of Oakland is the eighth biggest in California and they have more than enough people in the East Bay to heavily support them. Although they still share a stadium with the Oakland Athletics, the Raiders have found their niche in the Bay Area.

Known as the “bad boys” in the NFL, the Raiders are also feared by their cross-town rivals. Recently the Raiders have not won very many against their cross-town foe, but to take away the rivalry forever, that’s just wrong.


NOTICE THAT THEY PRAISE OAKLAND AS CENTRALLY LOCATED WITH ENOUGH FANS AND THE 8TH BIGGEST CITY IN CALIF HOW COME THIS LOGIC DOESNT APPLY TO KEEPING THE A'S THERE?????
