As if you cared about Dennis Allen. Get a life.

They've gotten their act together now that Al is dead. Future looks bright

Moral victories only exist in lowers levels like college. They don't exist in pro sports and being in the middle sucks. Being the champ is all that matters. Everyone else sucks. Are fans really upset with our playoff record? No. We are wanting a championship not a bunch of worthless playoff wins.

I invert that. The only thing I care about in College FB is who the National Champion is.

Perennial playoff contenders I respect, even if they don't make the big game. It gets tenuous when it's a constant one and done, but it's more respectable to me than 5 years of suckitude, then a playoff run, then a return to the bottom of the barrel. I'd rather root for the Chiefs, Chargers or even Bengals than the likes of the Rams or Bucs, certainly the Raiders.

Chiefs, Bengals, and Cowboys push the edge of making the playoffs without a lot of respectability based on their playoff futility, but still making it regularly is respectable.

I do. I think he did a good job as our DC and I was sad to see him go to the Raiders. I just now saw a tweet from Adam Schefter that both the Saints and the Broncos would "welcome him back." I certainly wouldn't mind seeing the Broncos bring him in as an extra coach.

It was always a matter of when.

Tony Sparano named as interim head coach

Over the phone? Really? Wow.

It's about morals and ethics. You don't fire someone over the phone, no how matter how you feel he or she is doing at their job. It's classless. Which, case in point, are the Raiders.

Didn't Crazy Al fire Kiffin via press conference where he read a letter or some shit?

Didn't they just completely gut their players this year? Or was that last year? How can that be on the coach?

Pat Kirwan just let the Raiders have it a little bit on Sirius NFL radio.
