[quote=ToastPatterson post_id=1291094] You tend to make false assumptions. The point I was making is that Al deserves to be in that conversation more than he is.

Semantics.[/quote] He has to be in bed by 7 pm central time he will come at you with a vengeance about 5 am though lol He loves to aggravate & cause drama between 5am & 7pm He can't hang after 7pm ;) & he babbles all game week, but come game time is afraid of getting banned so doesn't post in the game day thread..Pathetic! And the funny thing is he has run out of people to try an abuse & his kiss ass followers have bailed because he now attacks them out of boredom is my guess...he must feel lonely?? Mark my words he will be ready to go about 5am! :seenoevil: :hearnoevil: :speaknoevil:

You know my habits, but I know none of yours? Why? Because you don't matter to me. But now I seem to have a cyber stalker.

Young Al Davis, one of the best

Old Al Davis, not so much.

[quote=MWRaider post_id=1291109]Young Al Davis, one of the best

Old Al Davis, not so much.[/quote]I tend to agree with this, overall. I have dialed back some of my views of the man in recent years, citing his complex relationship with the NFL. I know he knew he was dying given the autopsy report so I think he was pressing toward the end for one last shot at the title. We got so little glimpses into his personal affairs so we rely on rumor these. Some of his press conferences were painful to watch, most especially the Lane Kiffin overhead projector one. But no one can question his drive to win, he just fell off in his talent evaluation later in life.

Al may have got side tracked by a lot of bullshit, but nobody had his knowledge. I still find it strange how in some regards he was so passionate and a great person (minority hires, paying for Derrick Thomas's funeral, etc.) and in some instances he was such a prick.

The best I can say is he was very complex
