Al Davis, owner of the Oakland Raiders, has died at the age of 82.

Many had views of this man. Some not too good. Some very good. You youngins, just might know him as some crazy, creepy looking guy, who owned a laughingstock organization. And you might be right in the present tense. But when you pick your head up from your “awesome” Madden 2012 video game, you might want to know that Al Davis was the cat who hired the real life MADDEN, in your Madden 2012, 2011, 2010, etc, video game. Not bad right?

For you “older” timers, you might remember an insanely competitive guy, who got what some might call, the “nastiest dregs of society”, to play for his football team. But, you know what? This was FOOTBALL, not the cotillion ball, baby. I’ll always remember Otis Sistrunk, #60, on some of those very good 70s Oakland teams, who shaved his head bald, WAY before it was fashionable. They would pan to the sideline every once in a while on the TV, and his head would be smoking. No lie. I also liked when they asked where Otis went to college. He said, “Mars.” Awesome, no?

And I have to ask all of you AFC fans who HATED the Rayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy-duhs (Davis’ beautiful Brooklyn, NY, accented pronunciation, for the Raiders. Timeless and priceless, pal. Yeah thats what Chris Berman on ESPN is mimicking when he says the name of the Silver and Black) , a few questions. Lets go backwards.

Hey Pats fans, you remember how the NFL gave you the game in the “Tuck Game” and changed your franchise for the good, forever? Wll, that was Oakland, from California, battling your asses to the death in a nice New England blizzard. Jet fans? You got beat up a few times by Oakland more recently in the playoffs, but the Jets beat Oakland to advance to their 1 and only Super Bowl, all the way back in the 1968-69 season. The Steelers? HUGE battles in the 70s. HUGE. Immaculate Reception type stuff. Colts followers? Brutal loss in 1977 in OT. Thats when the Colts were in Baltimore. Yep. A few years later they MOVED after never recovering from that loss. Miami fans? Well, well, well. The Rayyyy-duhs stopped a few of your runs.

My point is “A Commitment to Excellence” was not a joke. Not by a longshot. They seemed to always be “in there”. Sure, the old man was slippin in recent years. And he was a Grade A assclown. But one of my favorite stories of “Al from Brooklyn”, was after they whupped the Vikings in the Super Bowl with John Madden as the coach in 1977, the winning team’s bonus share was like $32,000. A nice chunk of change, back then. Al Davis took his money and bought some insane penthouse apartment on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. For not much more than the $32,000 bonus money. You youngsters think this is a lie? How about New York City was BUST in the 70s. And there were plenty of people doing the “OccupyWallStreet” thing back then. Except we called them muggers, or murderers. People were RUNNING out of the city of New York. Quickly.

I do not know if Al, or his heirs, still own the penthouse. But he/they did a few years ago. It was worth $20mm then. So, say the market has even dropped 50%, its still worth a cool 10 mill. His favorite saying? “Just win, baby.” Good god, what a great saying.

You can say what you want about him, there wont be another one like him. I wanted say a special thanks to Al for his team losing the 1968 AFL Championship game to the NY Jets. At Shea Stadium. 27-23. About 8 degrees at kickoff. As a VERY young man, I was there. Dont remember, but my folks say it was cold…….The Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy-ddddddddddddddddddddddddduuuuuuuhhhsssss.

God bless.

Editor’s Note–Well, we got our college selections from Le Grande Wizard, Big D, Large Richard, Big Kahuna, yesterday. Now he looks to build on his 9-3 NFL record. That’s not a misprint folks. 75% in the NFL. Sweet mother of God. If you played $1 on each game, you would be up $9 – $3.3 = $5.7 (when you add in the standard 10% vigorish on the losses). Um, Big D does NOT play just $1. So let’s see him continue his steamyH-O-T ways! Goooooooooooo Big D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!–R.B.

Well, Richie, it’s Friday. Thank god. And we give thanks, because its just closer to the Saturday and Sunday where we sit back and collect the fruits of our labor. And by fruits, I meanbricks of $100 bills. Your bookmaker? How is he, or she, or it? Poorer pal. Poorer. Here come 3 more straight fire, flaming HOT NFL choices. Controversial, of course. But Ben Franklin dont ask how you got him, when he goes into your wallet, do he? No, he do NOT.

Defense? On Houston or Oakland? Sometimes. Offense on Houston or Oakland? Almost always. The bookmaker likes to scare us away with a 48.5 point total, ehhhhhhhhh? We are all quite aware that the Texan’s best receiver might be out. They play indoors inHouston, no? Perfect weather conditions equal perfect O-V-E-R, handsome.

Have you learned from Big D’s, ahem, Large Richard’s,gambling axioms this year and last and the year before, and…..etc.? “Always take the underdog in the BENGALS games.” How’s that doing so far this year? Uh huh. The Jaguars are weak and they lay a weak 2.5 points. CINCY is the way to go. ORANGE AND BLACK baby!

Finally, on Sunday night, in the big rematchfrom last year’s playoffs, the Packers go down to Hot-lanta for a special game. Special because Hot-lanta wants revenge. Special because the Packers are rolling. Special because the running scared bookmaker has posted an oh so high total of 53.5. Does that scare Large Richard? No, it does not. OVER in the Jaaaaaaaaw-Ja Dome pally! OVER!

So to recap the winning wagers: OVER 48.5 Houston/Oakland, CINCY+2.5 @ Jacksonville, and OVER 53.5 Green Bay/Atlanta. H-O-T indeed. Now enjoy the weekend, the games, and of course, this video below. Everyone bust out their headbands baby! Goooooooooooooooooo!

Editor’s Note–The college football was kind to Big D, ahem, Large Richard, and all of us who followed his sage advice last week. A spiffy 2-1 record that has us all a little more giddy than usual. We aren’t protesting that at all. I think we should also start an “Occupy Large Richard’s Winners” group, but instead of living in tents down by the river, we sip champagne through a straw, while throwing lobster tails in the air and catching them with our mouths, in some cabana, poolside in Las Vegas. We would probably see Large Richard there, too. Cause that’s just an average day in his life.Fire the choices when ready, O Captain,My Captain.–R.B.

Richie, you are far too kind with your words. We knew we would break out of thecollege football slumber at some point. It was good that it was sooner than later. We have 3 moreunderdogs this weekwhich could also allbe outright winners, but we’ll be glad to take the generous points just in case. Ready? Good.

The 25th anniversary of the Penn State footballteam championship is this year and they are having a big celebration at homecoming in oldState College, PA this weekend. There should be 100,000+ strong,mostly in blue and white, cheering and screaming. Too bad the home team has had played cream puffs so far, and hasnt covered the spread in any one of the first 5 games. They lay a “mysteriously low” 4 points to a VERY tough IOWA squad, who ALWAYS plays Penn State tough. Smells like a field goal game. A field goal is worth 3 pal. Take.

Lotsa people thought Florida State might have a chance to win the national championship, but that dream ended in like game 4. Theyapparently forgot to tell Mr. Oddsmaker because he has Florida State favored by 12 points to a sneaky good WAKE FOREST team……at WAKE! Too many pal. Too many. Taaaaaaaaake.

Finally, UtahState has been losing close games this year. Really close. So now this week they are favored. And by 11 points! To whom? Why the 10-2,last 12 as anunderdog,WYOMING COWBOYS!! That’s whom!! Smells like another close game.Take the points, friend. Take the points.

So, tomorrow wewill build on our blistering 75% start to the NFL season.On Saturday, to buildon our new hot streak in the college: IOWA+4 @Penn State, WAKE FOREST+12 vs Florida State, WYOMING+11 @ Utah State.

All this talk ofRichie singing a GrandFunk Railroad tune earlier this week in the karaoke, and Captain chatter, got me thinking. Enjoy this classic. That might even be a young Big D in the front row when they pan the crowd, in my bellbottoms and long hair. Good luck and god bless.

While these figures are encouraging it doesn’t necessarily paint the whole picture as a lot of small to medium sized businesses are still finding trading conditions very tough. With a lot of companies justtreadingwater stagnation in theeconomyseems to be one of the biggest issues facing UK plc.

Davenham refers to its announcement on 28 March 2011 in which the company confirmed that, in order to extend the steady platform from which to continue the run-off of the groups loan book for the benefit of the groups banking syndicate, the banking syndicate had extended the maturity of the groups on demand bank facility from 31 March 2011 to 30 September 2011.

Following discussions between the banking syndicate and the company, the banking syndicate has (following the expiry of the term of that facility on 30 September 2011) informed the company that it will not be extending or renewing that facility and has demanded immediate repayment.

Given that the group is unable to repay the amounts due to the banking syndicate following the expiry of the term of the facility, the board has concluded that it should appoint administrators.

The administrators will work with the existing management team to complete the run-off of the groups loan book in a prudent and orderly manner. The run-off to date has seen the group meet (or exceed) the financial milestones set by the banking syndicate as part of the run-off process.

If you have a finance agreement with davenham finance please contact us and we will do our best to explain what your options are.

I was at a local tavern, that is NOT a sponsor of this blog, yet, so it will go unnamed, where they serve up all you can eat wings and all you can drink beer during the college football, for a reasonable fee. At around 5:00pm eastern, I got an e-mail from a reader of the blog, saying something to the effect of “Richie, one of your selections in the college football is down by 30, the other is down by 22. Maybe you should tell Large Richard to just stick with the NFL.” Well, you may know what happened then……

The team down by 30 was a loser. The team down by 22 at the time, lost by 7, and covered the 13 point spread. And then the night game with WASHINGTON watched them smash Utah by 20 points while GETTING 7!! 2-1. Now, we did lose our baseball game, too. On Sunday, we split when MIAMI came ohhhhhhh so close to the spread. Then last night we had a nice cover with the COLTS for another stellar NFL weekend!!! So, dear readers, if you think its time to go against Big D, ahem Large Richard, it appears you have ALWAYS picked a Bad Time.

Speaking of, at this tavern I was at Saturday, they have a 15 minute karaoke session during halftime of the late games. My buddy encouraged me to sing something. So I did. I sang “Bad Time” by Grand Funk Railroad. Now that isn’t one of their “funkiest” songs, but it is a classic. When I was finished with that song, with a rousing applause I might add, 2ladies came up to me and told me I should be in a band. I cannot make this up. And I dont think they weredeaf or blind.

So I’m looking to join a band now, if anyone has one.

Meanwhile the markets still stink, but perhaps not for long. I’m not telling you to buy or sell, I’m just watching the charts. Again. Which make us money. Again and again. So have a nice day from the boys that make you 1) money in the markets,whetherit goes up or down, 2) money in the sports, 3)television programmingthat is wildly entertaining, andnow 4)musical enjoyment for your ears. Can’t think of abetter place to be, then here. Enjoy the tune. It is NOT me singing in this clip, but it sounds just like me.

Editor’s Note–I swear I was not holding out anyone yesterday. Most of all, not holding outon Large Richard. I did mention to a few of you around 3pm eastern time yesterday, that I thought the most least respected filly on the grounds at the Finger Lakes Race Course in lovely upstate New York, was CLASSY JET. She promptly then,busts from the gate and WINS wire to wire, at 34-1! Yes, thats a $70 payout for a $2 wager. And THOUSANDS of dollars in prize money for the Richard B. Bennett, Jr. Stable. Some of you traded on that information. I, however, did NOT. I will do 2 things now…….1) relay to all of you on these pages, the next time CLASSY JET runs, and 2) take my prize money and PRESSSSSSSSSSSSS it, with Large Richard’s continued steamy, flaming, incredible NFL picks!! What say you, Big D, Large Richard, Huge Kahuna?!?!–R.B.

Well, Richie, that calls for some kind of congratulations. I watched the replay of Race 7 at the Finger Lakes yesterday, and it was quite a thrill. I believe the track announcer might’ve fallen out of his booth when the mighty CLASSY JET held on for the big score. Well done, indeed.

Speaking of mighty, we now sit on a lofty perch of 7 wins and 2 defeats in the NFL action thus far. Here’s to making it 10 wins and 2 losses. And awaaaaaaaaaaaaay we goooooooooooooooo……

Detroit has been nothing short of awesome lately. Dallas has been something special offensively, although they settled for 6 field goals lastMonday in a close victory. But 6 field goals means you are moving the ball. Both teams like to go OVER a lot. Dallas is actually 15-4 OVER in their last 19. The bookmaker tries to scare you with the 46 point total. Dont worry, be happy. O-V-E-R.

Quick! Who is the best road team in the NFL versus the spread in the NFL the last 3 years? Why it’s the……MIAMI DOLPHINS! What?!? You say? 18-6 versus the spread is what Large Richard say. That’s 75%!! 19-6 is 76% and that’s what they will be, after they face the San Diego Chargers and getting a “mere” 7 points. Take!

Finally, our lone loss last week was to the “Yucs” of Tampa Bay. Now their baseball team might be fancy, but this aint baseball pal. The COLTS “stink” right? No Peyton Manning and all? Well, ask the Pittsburgh Steelers how much INDY “stinks” when they took them to Overtime, while getting 10 points last week. Well, lookie here. The COLTS are getting 10 points again. This time on Monday Night. Big D smells another barnburner. Too many pal. Taaaaaaaaaaaaake!

So, Richie you are going to press your good fortune on these selections? Not the worst idea Large Richard has ever heard. Taking it to the limit if you will, ehhhhhh? Well how about a little baseball play to add to your treasures? Try the ST LOUIS CARDINALS in an upset special on Saturday versus the Phillies! How do you like them apples?

So: ST LOUIS + whatever @ Philly on Saturday. OVER 46 Dallas/Detroit and MIAMI+7 @ San Diego on Sunday. Then INDY+10 @ Tampa Bay for all the marbles on MondayNight baby! Stay tuned for updates as well, as the baseball might produce some more opportunities. Now I’m going to “spend all my time making money”. Enjoy the clip. God bless and good luck.

Editor’s Note–I’ve noticed the last 2 weeks, Large Richard has put out all 6 of his investments in the football at once. And while slugging people left and right in the NFL, the college choices have left a little to be desired. So, being the superstitious people that we are, we have requested that Big D, ahem Large Richard, goes back to the old way of doing things. Which is Thursday for the college, and Friday for the NFL. He has agreed to our request. Therefore, it is his turn to hold the conch (Me being a well read man, that’s a little “Lord of the Flies” humor). God love him! Go Large Richard!!–R.B.

Yes, Richie, we did get a little “off course” there the last 2 weeks. Not today though. Our picks are even going to be old school. With 3 SOLID underdogs that can make their games exciting. First off, the BOWLING GREEN FALCONS. Not sure, how good West Virginnie is this year. Am sure how good BOWLING GREEN is. And they are pretty good. 20 points is the line. BOWLING GREEN is the ‘dog. Bow wow. Take.

Why is it that just about every week Usc is laying double digits? Is O.J. Simpson playing for them again? No, he is not. Did they get hammered last week by Arizona State? Yes they did. Do they lay 13.5 points to ARIZONA? Yes they do. Will we be taking ‘ZONA? Yes, yes we will.

Finally, them HUSKIES of WASHINGTON just might be the biggest sleeper of them all. Tough matchup this week at a feisty Utah squad. But Mr. Oddsmaker gave usa gift with 7 points. This one goes to the wire baby. Would you rather be getting or giving 7, if the game is going to the wire? Getting! Right! So we will get with WASHINGTON. Excellent.

So stay tuned for tomorrow, when we drop some NFL picks on you, AND possibly, some of the baseball, too! We are going to be in October come Saturday. Perhaps, the most joyous month of the year? When the frost is on the punkin, and the fodder’s in the shock. How’s that well-read Richie? I just dropped someJames Whitcomb Rileypoetry on you. So there.

BOWLING GREEN+20 @ wva, ARIZONA +13.5 @ usc, and WASHINGTON+7 @ Utah. Good luck and good bless
