Well you Raiders fans...your guy [Charles Woodson] has 24. It was TAKEN from me and given to him. #congrats.....too funny how this biz "works"😂


First of all: Fuck you. Charles Woodson is beloved by the Raider nation, when fans asked for him to have his old number, you SHOULD HAVE GIVEN IT to him.

Second of all: "you Raiders fans...?" not a good way to address the Nation* that you are now a part of

Few minutes later he tweeted:

Not mad at all...it's just the principle and the way it was handled.....said my piece, now back to football.


- You have no right to be mad obviously so that's good.
- The principle of having your number reassigned?
- The way it was HANDLED? This guy is a drama queen...

Raider buzzins, your thoughts on this?

personally i dont think he should have been forced to give up his number... if woodson wanted it that bad he could have bought the number off of him but forcing him to give it up isn't right imo, it probably means as much to him as it does to woodson

you know its a boring season when this is the first thing to come out of the camps..


old habits die hard

the raiders are a shadow of their former self. porter is a guy who can ball so why throw him under for porter being porter?

*you hear stories of players buying #s back but never organizations reassigning to glorify their old has-been

Disagreed@Bold. Its obvious the team is rebuilding, they are obviously not contenders, but they are moving in the right direction.

And Porter should understand the culture of this fan base, tweeting something like that is not going to go over big with the "raider fans"

Exactly. They should have settled on a small price and been done with it. But to have it forced from him is wrong. Porter isn't a rookie in the league.

But Woodson is a seasoned vet who is beloved by the Raider nation.

Our fanbase is unlike any in the NFL... (obviously) and TRUE Raiders listen to the fans.
When the fans called for Woodson to get his number back, Porter should have agreed to either give it, or give it in return for a donation to a charity or something.

And whether or not you "agree" with Porter being a drama queen/bish I think everyone can agree this shouldn't have been posted publicly.
