team NFL guys least want
to play for?

Most NFL players apparently want nothing to
do with the Silver and Black.
ESPN polled 82 current NFLers on which team they
would least like to play for, posing the question as:
"The only way I'd play for (team name) is if they
doubled my salary."
The Cleveland Browns and Buffalo Bills each pulled
in more than 15 percent of the vote, but the team
receiving more thumbs down (23 percent) than any
other was the Oakland Raiders -- a fact that isn't
particularly surprising.
The once-dominant Raiders have been AFC West
doormats for more than a decade now, going without
a playoff appearance or winning record since losing
the Super Bowl after the 2002 season. It also doesn't
help that they play in what's widely regarded as one
of the worst stadiums in American professional
sports, or that they've had 16 different quarterbacks
start at least one game over the last 10 seasons -- a
number that will grow to 17 when new acquisition
Matt Schaub makes his regular-season Raiders
debut.
Current Oakland players don't necessarily agree with
the rest of the league's assessment, though.
"I've never heard anybody that said they didn't want
to play for the Raiders, so that's pretty shocking,"
cornerback Charles Woodson said. "I think you've
got to take the attitude that if you didn't want to
come here, it doesn't matter anyway. Over the years,
I've known and talked to countless players that said,
'Man, I would love to come play in the Silver and
Black.' So I think that poll might be kind of skewed."
The Bills ranked second in the poll with 19 percent of
the vote, followed by the Browns (16 percent),
Jacksonville Jaguars (9 percent) and Green Bay
Packers (6 percent).
Figured browns would be #1 followed by Cincinnatti
