We meet the marketing people behind promoting the Oakland Raiders' new running back Darren McFadden. We also talk to Darren's Mom -- all at the NFL Draft.

I Guess HBO is trying to keep the show fresh and innovative. That's nice, but could you pick a better team to showcase then the Cowgirls-i-mean-boys? How about some team who is on their way back up, Like the Redskins, or the Vikings, or even the Saints. Any team but the Cowboys and their attention seeking receiver Terrell Owens, who reminds us not to Pick on Tony Romo because he's is "His QB." Let me know when Tony gets a National Commercial spot. Even Brady Quinn of the Browns(and he's still a Back-up!) has an EAS-Myoplex commercial!! Is Wade Phillips even "Telegenic" enough to do a month of Training camp TV spots? Will we see another Terrell Owens "Meltdown"?

We have learned from a confidential source inside Bay Area Politics that Oakland Raiders execs, including Al Davis, and Amy Trask, and Davis' son Mark Davis, have held secret meetings with the City of Oakland for the last three months. The meetings concern building a new stadium and the Raiders current lease situation with the City of Oakland and the County of Alameda. I want to stress that we are still gathering information regarding this story and it is constantly in flux.

The source also said that Mr. Davis was in such poor health that he was unable to attend many of the meetings, which are still going on at this time to the best of our knowledge.

The Raiders are a franchise that wants to work very hard to improve the experience of the Hometown fan. Amid all the talk of a new stadium for the other Bay Area franchise, Oakland seemed to get lost again. I say The Raiders should let the fans know they want to bring them a better building, instead of keeping the talks under wraps. This way if the city burns them later they can say "see we tried" and not look like carpet baggers.
