The Raiders are going back to Russell this week for more torture.Source: Oakland Tribune
Al Davis finally has a coach after his own heart......they both want to torture the sh!t out of lifelong Raiders fans.

Cable isn't a coach he is Davis's puppet. He does what he is told, that's why Russell starts and he has a job. Kiffin told Davis that Russell sucked and he had no chance to succeed if he played him. Davis told him to play him anyway. Kiffin said he didn't want to it was hopeless and he was soon fired for insubordination.

I believe his actual quote was "He is great, get over it"
