Al Davis

After weeks of letting Raiders Head Coach Lane Kiffin flap in the wind, Owner Al Davis finally cut the cord today:



I’m pretty sure we’ve been down this road before. Flash back to 1989, the Raiders were struggling at 1-3 under the helm of a young up-and-coming ball coach by the name of Mike Shanahan. He too was fired in the bye week and even after drudging through the grievance process he still never received any compensation from Davis for the remainder of his contract. Things are different now and I’m sure that Kiffin will see some cheddar come his way but he was shafted nonetheless.

Here’s to Lane eventually finding another head coaching job in The League and coming back in true Shanahan fashion to post a 21-6 record against his old boss. That is if Al makes it through the rest of ‘08.
