Raiders & Packers among least desirable teams to play for according to survey

[IDEXAN]

It pays to be a member of the Oakland Raiders -- but only if the pay is extraordinary.

The Raiders are the least desirable team to play for in the NFL, according to an NFL Nation Confidential survey posed to 100-plus players on the following question:

"The only way I'd play for [team name] is if they doubled my salary."
Of the 82 players who answered, 23 percent named the Raiders, followed by the Buffalo Bills (19 percent), Cleveland Browns (16 percent), Jacksonville Jaguars (9 percent) and Green Bay Packers (6 percent). These are tough times for the Raiders, who have endured 11 consecutive nonwinning seasons and last reached the postseason in 2002 -- the season the Tampa Bay Buccaneers routed them in the Super Bowl.

why not the Packers? weather?

The stadium is old and the facilities are spartan compared to other teams.

why not the Packers? weather?

Because it gets colder than cold up there and a groovy night on the town consists of touring the kielbasa plant then getting really drunk at the bowling alley.

ah so old stadium and boring ass town. I remember it use to be the Siberia of the NFL. If you went to Green Bay, your career was over.

Until Reggie White went there
