Note to Ronnie Lott: You don't own the Oakland Raiders

Much is being made of Hall of Fame safety and 49eraider (cq) Ronnie Lott and his attempt to buy the land upon which the Oakland Coliseum Complex currently squats. He is being painted as the city’s last best option for keeping the Raiders where they are, and hey, publicity is never bad unless the word “indictment” appears in the first paragraph.

But there’s a huge and gaping hole in the story that people keep conveniently forgetting in all this, and here, because I care for you all like children, it is.

Ronnie Lott doesn’t own the football team, and the guy who does, Mark Davis, doesn’t want to be in Oakland.
