Marshawn Lynch met yesterday in Alameda with Raiders coach Jack Del Rio, and today, news leaked that he plans to un-retire in preparation for a return to Oakland. But the most definitive word so far about Lynch's plans may have been revealed Tuesday at Extreme Pizza on Grand Ave.

"He said he’s back in town, and he prefers Extreme Pizza, so he comes here," said an employee named Miguel. Lynch stopped in yesterday afternoon with a couple of companions.
"He ordered one medium pizza with extra meat and extra cheese, a couple of cookies, and a big water," said Miguel, who added that Lynch — worth an estimated $49.7 million — tipped $10 before posing for a photo with pizzeria owner Karina Peres and her son, Santiago.
Although Lynch seemed happy to get his preferred pizza, the Raiders' announced relocation plans cast a shadow, said Miguel. "He said he was planning to move back to Oakland, but he’s a little disappointed because they’re moving to Las Vegas."
