The Olympic streamers of magenta, aqua, vermilion, chrome yellow and lavender were still there, but it was the silver and black colors of the Los Angeles Raiders that made their 1984 debut in the Coliseum yesterday. Maybe the Super Bowl champions were confused by the technicolor tunnels and the national flags that dolled up the old gray lady, for they lost both the game and a linebacker. Photo dated: August 20, 1984.
