September 22, 200817 yr And to think about 5 years ago, that team was actually pretty good with Gannon behind center.
September 22, 200817 yr The sad part is the Raiders are headed in the right direction. They are a 7 win team, imo. I'd say they had an outside shot at the playoffs but they will have to play 4 total games against San Diego & Denver who are both head and shoulders better. However, put them in the NFC West and they are a playoff team. Heck, I think they would have a chance in the AFC East (Pats aren't good, Jets are way over-rated and Buffalo is solid but Oakland has shown they could play with them). Al Davis is a complete fool though.
October 1, 200817 yr Someone close to Al really needs to let him know how far he has fallen. The guy is clueless, he shouldnt be an owner anymore.
October 1, 200817 yr Just saw Al on ESPN....... He looks like walking death warmed over, time for him to let go of his precious Faiders, and retire to his grave.........
October 1, 200817 yr Give it up, Al Davis. You have no clue what you're doing. Any owner who gives Javon Walker $60 million over 5 years is a moron.
October 1, 200817 yr The fact that Davis released to the press his letter to Kiffin shows what a jagbag Davis really is. Seriously, that's an asshole move. Edited October 1, 200817 yr by Athomeboy_2000
October 1, 200817 yr Since Kiffin only cared about getting paid, he probably deserved it. Kinda like the Seinfeld episode where George tried to get fired from the Yankees so he could take a job with the Mets.

Seriously, that's an asshole move. I agree. I bet Al's cock hasn't worked in about 40 years. What else would make a man so bitter and hateful?
October 1, 200817 yr Ok, so Davis said he didnt get the guy he thought he was hiring. Am I straining too hard to extrapolate that out to him meaning "I thought I hired a suckup yes man, but he turned out to have a spine"?

Am I straining too hard to extrapolate that out to him meaning "I thought I hired a suckup yes man, but he turned out to have a spine"? This is pretty accurate. Yesterday was the first time I heard Al Davis' voice and he doesn't sound the way I thought he would. Voice is a tad higher.
October 2, 200817 yr How does Davis consistently get away with firing his coaches without paying them? I had no idea he still owed Shanahan money. And his tampering and cheating accusations, usually when people start dropping those words Goodell isnt far behind. And if the Patriots were tampering with Moss before they acquired him, why would the Raiders trade him there? It just doesnt make sense. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3619925 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3620818 Edited October 2, 200817 yr by kyyle23
October 6, 200817 yr No one decent is going to want to coach that team after this public display of how coaches are treated there. Edited October 6, 200817 yr by MAX
