Well at least Niner fans can look forward to that.



DAVIS THINKS RAIDERS CAN WIN TWO MORE SUPER BOWLS: The latest sign that Al Davis is slipping further into senility - he says he's not leaving the Raiders until they win two Super Bowls.

Sid Hartman of The MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE caught up with the sepuganarian owner, as he sat in the Metrodome on Sunday to watch his Silver & Back get shellacked by the Vikings.

Nice, maybe he can star in the remake of "The Bicentennial Man" next century.

I have serious doubts about Al Davis' ability to die.

As does every other NFL fan. :ph34r:

You mean he isn't dead and embalmed already? I thought he was one of those "Weekend at Bernie's" kind of things...

The original Al Davis died in the 80's...to cover it all up the Raiders had a body double to replace him. It all makes sense.:thud:

Al will introduce Jamarcus Russell at his HOF ceremony.

While it is fun to hate and make fun of him, I absolutely love Al Davis. The guy has lived and breathed football basically his entire life and done it all. If only we could be so lucky to have an owner who cared about his team the way Al Davis does.

Al's been managing this team from the "other side" for decades.

It's nice that he cares, but I'd rather have an owner that at least has their sanity intact.

Even in his senility he still makes better moves then John York.

No, they're just as bad. Except he believes that he's making the right choices. Which is worse. If I'm not mistaken, aren't they worse than us record wise since 2002? The last time both teams have had a winning record?

A lot of his choices have been good. He was stuck into hiring Art Shell, he tried to get both Petrino and Sean Payton but wasn't able to. Pat Hill as well.

Lane Kiffin seems to have done a good job, their defense has been atrocious this year and they've still been in just about every game. They actually have a pulse on offense.

Coaches don't want to work for Davis.

Lane Kiffin was a last resport after multiple people turned him down.

Fact: the University of Minnesota rejected Lane Kiffin as a head coach.
