Attention Media.

Attention media: You aren't helping. Let's take a look at what I've read over the past couple of days.

"Raiders are a team in need of a bridge", "It's all quiet on the Kiffin front", "Raiders' Davis still mum on plans", and that is just to name a few. It's honestly no wonder Tommy Kelly got busted for DUI! I'd need to be under the influence of something to keep from drowning myself in friggin' sorrow.

We can argue till our blood boils about how ridiculous Al Davis is or isn't being. It does us no good to guess what a maladjusted old man is going to do. We've NEVER been able to read Al. EVER. That will not change. He will continue to do what he wants, when he wants, and there is nothing us sane, rational (in the eye of the beholder) fans can do about it.

I'm done with that discussion. Whether Kiffin stays, or goes... We did something we haven't done in the beginning of a season in quite a while, and that is thoroughly dominate an opponent. I haven't seen us outplay a team like that in a long, long time, and it feels damn good.

Get pumped for McFadden, he might have fumblitis but at least he can run, boy can he run. We've got a QB who can scramble AND put the ball where it needs to go, (whether or not Dropald Curry can catch it is a different story.) LOOK UP, RAIDERS FANS.

At least until Kiff is fired. Then and only then should we open the floodgates.

Lets live this victory up, while it still lasts.

You Took The Words Right Out of My Mouth:

So, I Promoted it. Good stuff.

But when they start scheming us the way these guys did, and we weren't particularly ready for it, anything can happen."

Awesome post

Agreed with just about everything.

I hope Kiffin stays, not only because I really like him and think he’s a good coach, but because it would be great to see these media assholes get egg all over their face after being so smug with all this bullshit.

What particularly grates on me are the reporters who are writing, “Kiffin is trying to get fired!”

No, he’s not.

What Kiffin is determined to do is assert his independence. If he gets fired, so be it. If he stays, so be it. He may be going about it right or wrong. He may be right or wrong in doing it at all. But trying to get canned? Hardly.

Nice Post,

Kiffin is gettin fired its just a matter of when, but Amoc is right, lets stop beating that horse to death till it happens. Al is Al and he isnt leaving or changing so we just got to deal with it.

Great win against KC, true they might be the worst team in the NFL, but it was nice to go out there and dominate the opponent and a hated rival at that. Buffalo will be much harder, I’m just hoping we make a good showing on sunday and not get beat down. We got a chance at pullin this one off, hopefully the team is prepared, ready and focused.

63, rest in peace man

The only problem I have with Kiffin

is that he called out Ryan and DAVIS after the Denver loss. A head coach cannot do that. You win as a team,, or lose as a team. The defense did not call out the offense last year when games were lost because the offense couldn’t score, same with the year before.
Davis wants players and coaches to pee silver and black, he just doesn’t understand that that doesn’t work anymore with free agency etc.

Sike.

Bullphooey. Why should he take credit for that? He did his job. He wanted a new defensive coordinator. The entire reason they came out with as much fire as they did last sunday was BECAUSE Kiff called him out.
