The Raiders are going back to Russell this week for more torture.Source: Oakland Tribune

Cable-"Russell, you suck but we dont have any other options right now."
Russell - "Uh ok coach. I still get paid right?"
Cable- "Remember Mr. Davis did try to weasel out of a contract with his last coach. That's why I had to clock that asst coach. To intimidate Al a little. He wasnt scared of that whiny Kiffen."
Russell - "So I should take a swing at somebody?"
Cable- "Don't bother, JaMarcus as inaccurate as you have been you'll surely miss"
Russell- "Do we play Tulane? I always played pretty good against them."
Cable- "Sorry we couldnt get them this year. Something about us weakening their strength of schedule??"
Russell- "Where are we ranked anyway?"
Cable-"Well I think we are about 28th."
Russell -"Does that get us a bowl bid?"
Cable punches himself.
