Your NFL lockout escape: The Oakland Raiders DVD 'Best Games of the 2010 Season' ... because some existed?

| |

61knwEKODsL__SL500_AA300_.jpgLast season's Oakland Raiders finished 8-8. Good enough to win the NFC West, if only they weren't in the AFC West.

A couple of days after managing general partner Al Davis celebrated his 82nd birthday, and a couple of weeks after a team spokesman said the franchise isn't for sale, despite reports that AEG had talked to them about selling and moving to this new L.A. downtown stadium, we've come across something that may at least get Raiders' fans through this current lockout situation.

We came across a catalog in the mail for newly released, price reducted and hard-to-find DVDs. "The Oakland Raiders: Best Games of the 2010 Season" probably fulfilled all three requirements.

"While the Oakland Raiders weren't very successful in the handful of years before the 2010 NFL campaign, this season marked the beginning of a turnaround for the squad. This was highlighted by a mid-season three-game win streak, and they're all included in their broadcast entirety on this three-disc set. Relive the complete dismantlings of the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks as well as an overtime victory over their biggest rival, the Kansas City Chiefs."

What follows is 6 hours and 20 minutes of commercial-free games -- with all the penalties taken out.

This company we found had the deal marked down from $26.99 to $22.99. But on Amazon.com, it's going for $12.99, plus $7.98 in shipping and handling.

And embarassment.
