 My name is Erin Haight (he/him) and I’m a Raiders fan living in Spokane. My dad was a rabid Raiders fan who rooted for the team with unselfconscious partisanship and fervor and passed those traits along to me. For my dad—along with his brother and cousin, who shared his love of the team--no call against the Raiders was ever just and the other teams in the league were enemies to be despised with a religious righteousness. He loved the team for its devil-may-care attitude and its refusal to be bound by the almost military-style conventions of discipline and rectitude of pro football of that era. The three of them were hard-drinking, bar-fighting, motorcycle-riding hell raisers, but they were hard workers, too, and so were the Raiders. And I was initiated into the society at a young age. The Raiders part anyway. My hard drinking years would come later, I’ve never been much interested in giving or taking a punch to the face, and motorcycles are just a good way to die, in my view. My name is Erin Haight (he/him) and I’m a Raiders fan living in Spokane.
