Mike Loede - Columnist/Site Editor - www.raidersgab.com

As a life long Raider fan, Mike has been thru the ups and downs of Raider football. One of the very first football games he recalls remembering watching was SuperBowl XI Jan 9th 1977 when his beloved Raiders pummeled the hapless Minnesota Vikings 32 to 14. He cannot explain what it was about the Raiders that made him fall in love with them, but since that game, he has had a lifelong passion for the men in Silver and Black. He started collecting Raiders gear basically at that time, and his collection has grown every year – along with his love for the Raiders. Last year ( 2006 ) he was able to fly to Oakland to attend his first RAIDER game against his home town Browns. He cannot begin to explain the feelings that rushed thru his body as he entered MacAfee stadium. He had such a great time in Oakland and at that game – even though they lost – he is considering planning on making it a yearly tradition. He is looking forward to a much improved year of Raider football and he is looking even more forward to seeing this site grow and be a fun place for RAIDER FANS to participate and be a part of!!

Maxwell Lee - Columnist - www.jaguarsgab.com

Born and raised on the mean streets of Southside Jacksonville, Maxwell found salvation in the “Touchdown Jacksonville!” movement. He sold his soul in ‘96 to get the Jaguars to the AFC Championship, later paying the price with the 1999 upset loss to the Titans. To this day, he’s still haunted by the Music City Miracle. But finally with a playoff win to celebrate for the first time this century, and the days of severe clinical depression seemingly behind him, Maxwell sees the glass as half full. Which is good because degrees in philosophy and music don’t normally yield much reason for optimism. Maxwell hopes that as the Jaguars campaign for a Super Bowl berth this season, he’ll stay focused enough to complete a Masters of Music at Northwestern. And if all goes as plan, he will be composing music for movies showing in a theater near you. In the meantime, he’ll keep drinkin the teal Kool-Aid and writing about his beloved Jaguars.

From that point on, he was an Eagles fan. Jason loves nothing more than talking about football, especially his Eagles. His son calls him a football guru. Most people watch CNN or the Today show in the morning, Jason watches NFL Total Access on NFL network.

The 22-year-old is a student at Temple University in Philadelphia, and he recently entered the world of blogging and enjoys the idea of blogging about sports (especially the Eagles). He decided to start blogging about sports because he was tired of watching ESPN. Josh thinks they totally blow any and all information they get by “experts” out of proportion and worst even they seem to make up information as well. In his opinion there are too many sites that allow for garbage posts with no real merit. He says on the lighter side there are people (like him) who refuse to post garbage and actually supply valuable information.

Jerry Hiers - Columnist - www.jaguarsgab.com

Jerry feels we are the sum of our genetic make-up and our personal experiences, so the more you experience and or learn, the better your judgement. Hopefully! He’s comming to believe in Kharma, he’s seen it. Jerry is an amatuer musician and philosopher, ethics are important to him. The 35-year-old cares about his planet, and believes life is about timing on the small and large scale. His timing is good. Jerry believes now is the time for him to do his part to help his hometown and the Jags.

T.C. Finney - Columnist - www.dolphinsgab.com

T.C. was born and raised in North Carolina. However, the Carolina Panthers didn’t exist when he became a football fan on September 16, 1979. It was 1 day before his 9th birthday, and it was also the first time he ever watched an NFL game. The Miami Dolphins defeated the Minnesota Vikings, 27-12. On that day T.C. decided that Miami would be his favorite team (since they had won the game)…and 29 years later, the Fins are still his favorite team. If the Vikings would have won that game, then it stands to reason that T.C. would be writing for VikingsGab.com instead.
