Raiderstation

I feel like Charlton Heston at end of Planet of the Apes whenever I see former Raiders, especially those that "Love the Raiders," in Chiefs gear..

At least AP is not stealing $ from the Raiders. Hopefully, Graham is next. I can not believe some were worried at one time that he was going to get a HC position.

Raaaaaaaaaaidurrrrrrrrrrrzzzzzz

Well the raiders for last 20 years have been really bad so I am just clutching at straws; hoping somebody can turn this team around…and I was hoping that AP could do that Madden magic

I think that was everyone's approach. It was just that the buy in from some was almost Brown's fan level.

I do not like interim's getting the job. The history is just mindblowingly bad how often they fail and when they do it is in epic fashion. An interim is simply a desperation move to get to the end of a season and almost to a man, that is where it should stop. Add to that, in our case, of not having a QB and letting our RB walk, the level of disaster waiting to happen was epically bad.

The problem is, he was too stupid to know how unprepared he was to even consider the job.

Still blows my mind that even after surrounding himself with experienced coaches how epically stupid he remained making in game decisions and his clock management. Shameful really

AP will Punt

We have been cursed (and hopefully things are starting to change). If you combine the brains of Gruden, McDouche, AP, and Graham, you are about half way to having the smarts to be an actual NFL coach. What shit we had/have to endure. I salute everyone on this f[raiders_icon]cking board for hanging in there. We may occasionally have differences, but its all good. We all DESERVE good fortunes (especially younger fans) for this shit show we had to endure.

I pointed that out since it just so rarely happens. But that is where it ends. Madden was a student of the game, Pierce was just a loudmouthed motherf[raiders_icon]cker who bought into his own hype machine and Dufus was too stupid to ask questions to find out if the lump of cells between his ears actually worked.

Add in Maxx basically giving an ultimatum, it was a disaster waiting to happen. I still don't see how anyone thought he had what it took based on his interim stint. It was horrible

I will say however that it turned out well. Gave him the job, he showed how incompetent he was and we could fire him and them build a competent staff in the aftermath.

Need to figure out how to turn the u in f[raiders_icon]ck to a little Raiders logo, maybe then the motherf[raiders_icon]ckers won’t complain.

One has to wonder if not for Brady, would there be a seemingly competent staff/front office or would MD manage to hire some other underwhelming/head scratching decision for a head coach? I simply have no confidence in MD to make the right hires by himself

Who cares? f[raiders_icon]ck AP and the Chiefs

Al f[raiders_icon]cked up just as much as Mark...and he was supposed to be a football genius!

ok I f[raiders_icon]cking did it, that's pretty cool I think (some of you might need your cache to update to see it, but give it some time)
