    Is Al Davis Totally Senile?

    I have come to the conclusion that this guy has totally lost all concept of reality. He seems to have no idea of how to run a football team. He gives obnoxious contracts to subpar players (see Tommy Harris), lets superstar players go for minimal return (a 4th round pick for Randy Moss) and he keeps creating a bunch of drama and media hype by constantly firing coaches.

    I keep seeing that Lane Kiffin is on the chopping block. Could Al Davis really be so stupid that he expects a coach to take a team from one of the worst teams in the league to a Superbowl Contender in just one season?

    I am soooo glad that I am not a Raiders fan. In my opinion, Al Davis is the worst owner in the history of the NFL.

    First of all Tommie Harris is a beast, Tommy KELLY isn't worth 10 cents. Raiders are the garbage of the NFL and Al Davis is the garbage man.

    I cannot say he is the worse in the history. He has had some awesome teams. But time marches on and I think he needs to pass the torch.

    He was a great owner at one point in time but I am to young to rember any of those teams. I thought I read some were over the off season that even Al Davis was reconsider some of the past signings and things he has done with the Raiders and he was thinking about turning the franchise over to someone else maybe at the end of the season but who knows he probaly changed his mind again.

    We all can't be the Dallas Cowboys I do agree that Davis does need to let the team go, and hand it over to someone else.
