The only comment I have being an abused Raider fan over the last 10 years, who has been hopefully optimistic, and watched stuff happen to my beloved Raiders that seems to happen to no other team. I don’t know who this Olsen guy is, but my first problem is his name is Greg….we just got rid of one and here comes another…I wish I could be more optimistic but I’ve been mentally damaged by this organization…Good Luck to all of us in the upcoming 2013 season were gonna need it…Kool Kell you out there????

do you think cable flew to michigan for the saturday games and flew back to oakland to coach on sunday……the scouts find the prospects and create a portfolio for the coaches to evaluate leading up to the draft….

and again….since your on this board i figure your a raider fan……..do you think cable drafted veldeer or al davis…..we all know the answer here……if cable said he loved him or hated him it really didnt matter……it was AL’s selection

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Lol.
You figure I’m a Raider fan? How nice of you.

Don’t get your knickers in a twist, take a pill or something.

Al did the drafting but he wasn’t stupid enough to turn down advice and Cable had his own contacts and was familiar with Hillsdale.

It’s really not a big deal man.

Nobody will argue against DHB being overpaid, but I’d still love to have him on the team at a reasonable price. Or at least compete for a spot.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I don’t know man.
I think we’ve watched him not catch enough balls.

I really, really, really hate it when you go to the barber to get your hair cut and when you leave you all those little hairs down your back and chest! No matter how much vacuuming they do! Those little f*ckers itch! They oughta invent adhesive barber’s tape to put around your neck at top of shirt to keep those hairs away. Adhesive wouldn’t need to be too sticky, Just enough to seal your shirt to your skin. I always have to come immediately and shower. It’s a freakin’ pain in the posterior! What gets me is that I don’t have that much hair left to cut.

Here endeth the rant for the day.

Thanks for letting me vent!

The Raiders interviewed Trestman and hired Olson. Why?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Because Trestman didn’t want to come here.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

2nd choice but they both were brought in and after DA gets canned Gruden will have a coordinator he is familiar with, with draft pics,under the cap and a large say in the organization

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

None of them want come here right now.
Which is why McKenzie ended up hiring Allen.

It is interesting that someone on the Raiders has been seeking the counsel of Gruden lately.
I think that someone has to be Mark Davis.

Yeah, and I think that Cable had a hand in finding Veldheer at the little known school of Hillsdale.

==========================
cable didnt find veldheer at hillsdale……that wasnt his job……thats what scouts are for……and besides…who thinks davis let cable make decisions in the draft

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

That wasn’t his job? He was the head coach.
I think you’re wrong and I think that Cable was fairly familiar with Hillsdale.

In any event, Veldheer came during Cable’s time and not after Hue got here.
