John from Riverside Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I remember seeing a video where this PR guy physically went after what looked to be an asian sports writer who was critical of the team trying to humiliate him in front of others........ They are such a disgusting organization I cannot believe it is a pro franchise......what would fans think if we were doing this to Jim Kelly?

The writer you're talking about is Tim Kawakami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacka Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 Writes for the San Jose Murky Snooze (Mercury News), another local paper. San Jose is 3X bigger than Oakland and 25% bigger than SF. San Jose is the 11th biggest city in the US (about 1 M people), so thats a big paper.

Steely Dan Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 The last guy to lead your team to a SB and this is how you welcome him back? Al Davis and his bunch really do run the NFL version of "Ringling Bros.". Wow. The truth hurts. Especially when it's announced on TV by a recent former player.

EasternOHBillsFan Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 HOW can Ralph Wilson and Al Davis still be friends? It still boggles my mind... Al Davis is so petty, so crotchety, and so vindictive that he makes a certain Austrian corporal look good- it is that bad. Wow. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sen. John Blutarsky Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 CBS went along with McCord's banning because they want to keep the tournament. Also, it would be kind of difficult for McCord to see the tournament if he isn't on the property. That would be kind of the point. They'd throw it to Gary McCord out on the highway outside to make some sort of comment about how his sight line for the tournament is terrible. I'm not saying that a judge would grant them a PFA. I'm just saying that would be a way for Davis to try get his agenda accomplished without directly confronting the NFL contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Link Oakland Raiders assistant coach Randy Hanson told investigators that he was struck by head coach Tom Cable and suffered a broken jaw, his lawyer told NFL Network on Monday. A few weeks after the Aug. 5 incident, Cable said "nothing happened." "When all the facts come out, everything will be fine," he said. Hanson's lawyer, John McGuinn, disputed that, calling the skirmish a "textbook case of felony assault," according to NFL Network. McGuinn said that Hanson is still being paid by the Raiders but has been told to stay away from the team's facility. That hasn't stopped players from soliciting his advice. Good Lord they are a team in disarray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me I'm not touting the extremely little athletic ability I have, but seriously, I could throw more accurately than he does. The guy is horrendous. TE's stat line against the Saints would be a huge improvement for him. This is his stat line for the year; 1 TD, 4 Int., 378 yards passing and a QB rating of 39.8. Yes, you read that right 39.8. The 2007 Number 1 pick in the draft has a 39.8 QB rating. Davis loved him because he's big and can throw the ball far. Davis doesn't care much beyond size and speed. How's that goin Al? Damn, at least the man has tremendous fashion sense. Michael Crabtree looked visibly relieved when the Raiders took Heyward-Bey instead of him. I will laugh my buttocks off If the Raiders draft him next year!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took him in a very late round on my FF team and needless to say he's playing below the place I took him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
