So yeah, waiting for work to get done that I didn&#8217;t even have to wait for, I made the last second dash to the car to hook up the radio, and realized I had no clue what station it was on. The best I could do was finally stumbling on the Raiders broadcast and finding out the exhilarating 9-7 final that way. <\/p>\n<p>While the backhanded compliments&#8230; hold up, there were no compliments.
