Meet Robert Charles Comer. The use of his middle name in published reports indicates that he likes to kill people. The tear-drop tats and orange onesie are dead give-aways that he is a Raiders fan--or maybe it's the other way around. Either way, one thing is certain; Comer is one evil SOB with a PSL in the real black hole. Most felons who pull for the 'Silver and Black' usually commit their assaults in public. They either beat someone down in the parking lot while tailgating, or try to 'box-cut' an opposing fan during the game. But Comer was a little bit smarter than your average Raiders fan, and a helluva lot sicker. He took his game on the road. Back in 1987 he went on a rampage in a campground at Apache Lake, east of Phoenix. He fatally shot a man in the head, and then went on to attack a young couple at a nearby campsite. After tying the male half of the couple to the fender of a car, well...you can guess the rest. If gory details are your thing, here's the full story. Comer was put to death by the state of Arizona on Tuesday. Before he was administered a hot dose of sodium pentathol, he had his last meal--fried okra and banana bread. What kind of last meal is that for a Raiders fan? Two 99-cent hot dogs from AM PM sounds more like it, a last 'lunner' if you will. After wolfing down his feast, Comer was strapped to the gurney and asked if he had any last words. Witnesses to the execution reported that Comer smiled and said, "Yes...Go Raiders!"
I'll bet that little quip gave the victims' families a real sense of closure. Being a non inked-up, law abiding Raiders fan, like yours truly is a tough enough existence as it is. A story like this could make one seriously question his allegiance. Who wants to be affiliated with murderers, rapists, and thugs? Well, besides the NFL. Wait, did somebody say Jamarcus? Never mind...Go Raiders!
