So after the Oakland Raiders signed free agent linebacker/edge rusher Aldon Smith yesterday, the Denver Broncos rookie first-round pick took to twitter with his thoughts.
Glad somebody giving aldon a chance. Too bad its the raiders though........

Ray who is probably a fan of Aldon Smith's game on the field wasn't too happy to see him end up in Oakland. I mean Oakland is basically the run down retirement home of the NFL. It is where NFL players go to end their careers.
In typical twitter fashion, Raider fans quickly caught wind of this tweet by Ray and they weren't none too pleased about it. So they tried to form sentences and insults, and Ray's mentions blew up.
For all the raiders fans salty about my last tweet. Idc I don't like you lol

Ray has only been a Broncos player for a couple months, but he is speaking like a true Denver Broncos player.
The Broncos head to Oakland on October 11th, and something tells me that the "Black Hole" will have some not so kind/poorly spoken words for Ray.
No ones like the Raiders.
