New Banner

About time I finally came up with a new banner. This banner is only temporary and may be subject to change, but I think it's a good one. So the new banner represents the amount of Larry O'Brien trophies and Vince Lombardi trophies won by the Raiders and Lakers. The 11 NBA titles in the back represents the ones that were won by the Lakers since the move to LA, the 5 in front is an honorable mention to when the Lakers won 5 back in the days as the Minneapolis Lakers totaling their banners to 16. Down the NBA titles are the Vince Lombardi Super Bowl titles won by the Raiders, 2 in Oakland from left to right and 1 in LA in the center. Surrounding the titles are the jerseys of the players who won Finals/Super Bowl MVP or the main player that played an integral part. Left to right jerseys: George Mikan (1949-1950, 1952-1954), Jerry West (although the Lakers didn't win the title in 1969, Jerry West is still the only player to win Finals MVP honors in a losing effort), Wilt Chamberlain (1972), Fred Biletnikoff (XI, 1976-77), Jim Plunkett (XV, 1980-81). At the bottom from left to right near the Lombardi trophies: Magic Johnson (1980, 1982, 1987), Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (1985), Marcus Allen (XVIII, 1983-84), James Worthy (1988), Shaquille O'Neal (2000-2002), and Kobe Bryant (2009-2010). Left corner on top, the Raiders official logo, on bottom, the decal of the late great Dr. Jerry Buss. Right corner on top, the Lakers alternate logo, on bottom, the decal of the late great Al Davis.
