Not so breaking news: Kiffin out in Oakland

[MassNole]

Well that seems a little far fetched, but with a senile old man clearly suffering from dementia in charge of the team it wouldn't surprise me. Seriously, the NFL needs to strip Al Davis of this franchise.

I feel bad for Kiffin. The guy is not that bad of a coach. Maybe he's a bit conservative at times but damn man it's not his fault that the Raiders lost yesterday.

I'd laugh like crazy if Kiffin were given another NFL head coaching job and beat Oakland like a drum.

How does Al find head coaches for his team when everyone knows they wont last more than 2 seasons..more of 1 season and little change.

It wouldn't be the first time. Remember when he traded Gruden to the Bucs for some Fixodent or Flomax or whatever the hell it was. I'm not sure which game it was that the Bucs absolutely drilled the Raiders, but I know it happened.

Gruden was who I was thinking of when making that point

easy, it's an NFL coaching job. There's only 32 teams and a few slots open up each year. There will be plenty of candidates willing to take the job. Some will understand that this is Al's team more than others though.

Time to dump my Raiders avatar for a while....*sigh*

I'd really enjoy that right about now. I like Kiffin, its just too bad he had to put up with a old geezer like Al Davis.
