Al Davis, the legendary owner of the Oakland Raiders, died today at the age of 82.
The team announced his death on their website, with no further details.
Davis has been involved with the NFL for 60 years, starting off as an assistant coach with the San Diego Chargers. He was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 1992.
Davis was famous for coining the phrases "commitment to excellence" and "Just win, baby."
The Raiders won Super Bowls XI, XV and XVIII ... but have struggled mightily the last several years.
