Around SBN: Fighters React to Nick Diaz's Positive Drug Test

King Al Davis Granted an Interview Yesterday:

In a very rare appearance, "King Al", addressed everything from, "Run Run", to his displeasure with Doug Gabriel.

This is a must see clip.

His eyes light up when he talks about the ovation that, "Run Run", received.

For those of you who do not know the story of, "Run Run", this video will give you a glimpse of his life through Al's eyes. From being a Roller Derbist to the Raider's biggest cheerleader, "Run Run", was a fixture in the Bay Area for 5 decades.

King Al's piss and vinegar is also on display as he drops an "F" bomb and talks about how "maybe they got it right" when they let Gabriel go to new England. He was ticked that Doug failed to get out of bounds on the last play.

So, without further ado..."King Al"!!!

missed what he said...
He was saying something about a player not running out of bounds towards the end of the game and will be getting cut. I didn't get the chance to watch the game and i couldn't hear the name of the player that made the mistake of staying in bounds. Did anyone catch the name? and if not, just tell me it was jordan and i'll be happy that I don't have to watch that guy suck for another year.  He has cost us in the past by not running out of bounds towards the end of a game.  Lets draft that gut down in Little Rock, #5, and prove that saying correct, " QB's best friend is a RB"

#5 is only a Sophmore
I think the RB you are referring to is McPherson at Arkansas.  If that is the case, he isn't eligible for the 2007 draft since he is only a sophmore.  Adrian Peterson would be an excellent option for the Raiders offense.

sophomore RBs and trading the draft pick
imo darren mcfadden is a better RB then adrian peterson. Petterson's hasn't had a great year since his freshman year and has been playing for a power house.  Sophomores can be taken into the nfl draft, but only if they have been out of high school for three years. Mcfadden didn't red shirt and is only 19, so your right, he can't be drafted this year.  I don't think any QB is going to have a chance with this offense without a RB that can break it outside and spread the defense. Steve Slaton for west virginia is also a sophomore and even though he's 20, he didn't red shirt either. Mcfadden beat out slaton for the Doak Walker "best running back of '06 award", with this being the first time two sophomores have finished first and second for the award. The raiders need to trade for someone if they want to have any kind of running game next year.  I wish in 2004 they would have passed on gallery and picked up steven jackson. what good was gallery and the offense going to do with Amos Zereoue justin fargas and tyrone wheatly running the ball.  We can't waste the number one pick on a RB this year, if they weren't considered to be one of the best in college football, So I say trade the first overall pick along with whoever it takes and get a proven RB that hasn't been a back-up his whole career.
