in Caption This!

PrintA few weeks ago, I dedicated the Caption This! to finding a formula that would result in a 49ers win. I was able to surmise that pictures of other teams don't work, and that pictures of Jimmy Raye and Alex Smith together almost work, while pictures of Jimmy Raye and Alex Smith individually fail rather epically. Then, I ran out of Internet. Last week, with no Internet, I was unable to give you a proper Caption This! And the 49ers won.
But I refuse to believe that is the correct formula.
Rather, I believe that the correct formula starts with the Raiders. It took the Raiders for the 49ers to win, not a Caption This!-less week. But there's a problem: The 49ers do not play the Raiders this week. So the question becomes, "How do we infuse more Raiders into this week's game?"
The answer, for my part, is by way of Caption This!
Also, Al Davis is terrifying. His visage haunts my dreams. Not to mention my awakes. And don't get me started on me sleeping-but-not-dreamings. It haunts those, too. So please, for my sake, and for the 49ers' sake, turn horror into comedy. We need this. We really do.
As usual, use the comments for your captions, and rec' your favorites.

…to Raider fans who frequently dress up as monsters and ghouls, the scariest thing Al Davis could dress up as for Halloween was himself, continuing to own the Oakland Raiders.

Thats the word i see when i look at the picture LOL. Not exactly a caption this but fitting i think.
That’s right, I done seen it all: the fall of Rome, holy wars and the crusades (only the first and third), The black plague, the Lutheran Reformation and potato famine, the rise of the “New World,” all five French Constitutions, and even some space man walk on the moon. Somewhere along the way though, I lost my teeth- but I couldn’t tell you where.

And this children
is a rare photo of the late Al Davis, owner of the football Raiders, taken some time in the 1960s. His mind stopped sometime soon after this photo was taken. It is said that his last heard words were “Big arm, and speed. Screw accuracy.”
John Madden, a close friend of Mr. Davis, has said he credits Mr. Davis for the youthful skin cream he still uses to this day.
