afosomf Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Al davis is a cheap bastard!!!!!!!!! i doubt he pays Kiffin all the coin Rex would be a fool to go there Raidas are not a legit franchise with the assclown running the show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smizzy Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Al Davis is the reason the Raiders suck. He thinks he knows everything....he doesn't know jack ****. If you hire someone to do a job,let them do the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Al Davis may be a senile old bastard that has lost touch with football and reality, but I will repeat one last time that he is one of the greatest football men of all time. Without him the AFL probably would have lost the war and the Jets would probably be a mere footnote. The New Jersey Generals of the 1960s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadwayJoe12 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I'll agree that when younger Davis has done a lot for football, but the NFL should seriously consider taking the franchise away from him, he is turning a once great franchise into an absolute circus. I can't see how a credible coach will ever want to coach the raiders until davis leaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sperm Edwards Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 and also if he resigns he couldnt be a coach for another NFL team until his contract were to expire without the Raiders recieving compensation I believe. Imagine being in Al Davis' office when he makes that phone call. Hello, Kiffin? It's me, Al. Listen. I want to fire you as coach. But I don't want to be on the hook for your $2M salary in case you don't land a HC job this year (or ever again) elsewhere. Further, if anyone hires you before your contract with Oakland would have been up, I want to retain your rights so I receive draft picks as compensation from your new team. So I figure what's in my best interest and in your worst interest is for you to resign instead of formally firing you. I've taken the liberty of having a resignation letter drafted for you to sign. (pause) Yes. Yes, I'm serious. (pause) What's so funny? (pause) What does the dosage of my medication have to do with anything? (pause) Mars? No, I'm not from Mars. I -- (click) Hello? Hello? (hangs up phone) I will never understand people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smizzy Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 The best part is the next HC won't have any say in their first rd pick...Al will pick him all byhimself based off off what the guy looks like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j e t s Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Honestly, who would take that job. Why would Dennis green even consider it?

KSJets Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 They should just make a new reality show called "Who Wants to Coach the Raiders?" to pick the next coach. With the writer's strike, that would make for some compelling tv. They would have to schedule it pretty late though so the kids watching during "family hour" don't get nightmares from watching Al Davis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
