Straight from the mouths of the legends of the Silver and Black,
Cheating Is Encouraged offers the stories of the most infamous
football team in NFL history, the Oakland Raiders of the 1970's
Regardless of whether you loved or hated them, the Oakland Raiders
of the 1970s were an amusing cast of outlaws, misfits, and
anomalies that made up one of the greatest pro football teams of
their era. The Raiders' roster consisted of a collection of
mavericks and rebels, some with behavioral issues, such as John
"Tooz" Matuszak and Lyle Alzado, as well as castoffs like the aging
George Blanda and the sandlot player Otis Sistrunk, who were passed
over or disregarded by other NFL teams. To say that this group of
outlaws had "attitude" would be a gross understatement. They were
the Oakland Raiders, the Silver and Black, and Al Davis's dream of
"Just win, baby." Gridiron characters (such as the Snake, Foo, the
Assassin, the Hit Man, Dr. Death, and many others) chronicle the
notorious on- and off-the-field exploits, away-game adventures, and
the party-hard attitudes that are reflected in the team's
intimidating and glorified mix of renegades. Cheating Is Encouraged
defines an era that can only be considered the last days of "real
football played by real men." Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our
