Al Davis was loved all throughout the league.

He threw a tight, hard spiral some 30 yards directly at the head of Davis. At the last second, Davis saw it and ducked, the ball missing him by only a few inches. Davis, his hair ruffled, then made an obscene gesture at Shanahan, witnessed by a former Raiders coach who confirmed Grbac's story.

RIP Al.

I know I'm a few days late, but as a Bills fan, I have much respect for Al Davis. Him and Ralph Wilson were pioneers and one of the few remaining original AFL owners.

RIP Al Davis. NFL would not be the same without you.
