The Los Angeles raiders started the raider nation, So Los Angeles started the raider nation. Fans up north just hopped on.

You guys are trying to take credit for something that LA started. Give them their credit.

Raider "Nation" was created in 1982, when the team moved and Oakland/LA created the "nation" of fans.

Red Sox "Nation" was a term coined by some sports writer in 1986.
^Pretty much sums it up.

Red Sox Nation is a term given to fans of the Boston Red Sox. The phrase "Red Sox Nation" was first coined by Boston Globe feature writer Nathan Cobb in an October 20, 1986 article about split allegiances among fans in Connecticut during the 1986 World Series between Red Sox and the New York Mets. The phrase was popularized by the 1996 book At Fenway: Dispatches From Red Sox Nation (ISBN 0-517-70104-9) by Globe columnist Dan Shaughnessy.
The Raider Nation is known for its "black hole", a specific section of the McAfee Coliseum (Sections 104, 105, 106, and 107) frequented by the rowdiest and most fervent fans of the Oakland Raiders. The origin of the name is obscure; certainly it was in vogue during the early 1980s, when Raider fans from the San Francisco Bay Area were forced to travel to Los Angeles or elsewhere to watch their team. Today, the Raiders, currently based in Oakland, still have a strong fanbase in Los Angeles.

you are obviously not very intelligent. The point is its the same fucking team! They were in Oakland to begin with, so its a dead issue. Ur dumbass is just arguing for no reason with no valid arguement. And to what you said about not winning since the 70's, we won in '83. Get ur fucking facts straight.

LOL because I dont what decade the raider won a super bowl in, means nothing. Tell me all the super bowl the niners won, you cant.


Thepoint is that when the Raiders moved to LA, thats when the Nation began.
It wasnt when they were in Oakland.

The question was : Who started the Nation saying?
Answer : The Los Angeles Raiders.

Why is it so hard for you dumbfucks to understand that. Or do you guys what to act like the Raiders didnt go to LA?

first of all "Quick" lol, Im not the one talking about who won what when without knowing what the fuck im talking about, so wether or not I know when ur bitch ass team won is not important. Second of all, the fucking question was between the sox and the Raiders not which fucking city coined the phrase. As I said previously, you obviously arent very smart.
