"Al had a great impact on the American Football League that carried over to the National Football League after the merger and his competitive spirit embodied our sport."
"Al's Raiders may not have won every game, but you knew that you were in for a tough, hard-fought contest every time you played them, regardless of the score."
"I want to extend my deepest sympathies to Al's family, friends, the Raiders organization and Raiders fans everywhere."
