SUNDAY TALK...THROWBACK Act #2....They won SUPER BOWL 15 with ONE ...and SUPER BOWL 18 with BOTH....the BEST CORNERBACK TANDEM ever...the BLACK HOLES Law Firm....HAYNES & HAYES

They were arguably the Best of any Island to ever play on Sunday and they played for the Late Great Al Davis. Facing One was bad enough for Teams then they joined forces to dominate Sunday Play for 3 Years with A Lombardi at the Beginning of those 3 Seasons.

The Player , Corner Lester Hayes, drafted by the Raiders in 1977 was schooled by Legendary Silver & Black Corner Willie Brown. Known for a substance called Stickum he wore all over his Body..from his Hands to his Socks and to his Pants he dominated the Game. He was such a Lockdown Corner his nickname was the "Judge". What helped him become the Tackler that he was he played Linebacker in College Station for 12th Man...the Texas A&M Aggies.

In 1980 Hayes was NFL Defensive Player of the Year with 13 Picks and had 5 more Picks in Winning Time to lead his team to a Super Bowl 15 Win over the Bird Gang Eagles and their Star Trio of Ron Jaworski "The Polish Rifle", Wilbur Montgomery, and Super tall WR Harold Carmichael.

Then in 1983 a 6-Time Pro Bowl Corner Mike Haynes was picked up the Raiders and that Corner Duo became Legendary. Haynes was unique in a sense because he was gifted athletically...a 40" Plus Vertical, a sub 4.4 40 Yard Dash, 6-2 and just north of 200 el bees of "Throw it My Highway and I will take you down my Highway". Haynes was a real student of the game as his game was very Technical as Hayes' Game was more Instincts and naturally a Ball Hawk.

The Black Hole's Law Firm of, Hayes & Haynes, led the Raiders to the Super Bowl 18 Victory in the Old Sombrero in Tampa over the Redskins led by Joe Theismann and the Wr Corps..."the Smurfs" led by Art Monk and an O-Line called the "Hogs" led by Joe Jacoby, Arizona Cardinals' Assistant Head Coach Russ Grimm, and ESPN's College Football Analyst Mark May.

HAYES and HAYNES in my Mind have to be the #1 Duo of  Any Corners that placed on Sunday as they Covered like no other and equally adept at tackling as well. They had no Shortcomings to their games.

#22 and #37....Haynes & Hayes forever etched in Silver & Black Lore as well as Canton, Ohio in the NFL Football Hall of Fame.
