LOL.

He has been available since the Giants let him go after the 2003 season. Wonder why? Go look at the way the last pro team he coached played that season. It was awful. They quit on the field and Tiki and the boys ran the locker room......The worst coach to ever have a team in a Superbowl....Period.

Yeah, they were pretty terrible. Fassel isn't even much of a coordinator either. The Raiders slide continues.

The guys only HC experience before being named the Giants HC was one season with a losing record in college football out in Utah. He then rode Elways back to the pros as if he is the one who made him.....He then rode Sean Paytons and Fox ( the DC backs in NY.)..Taking all the credit and none of the blame... Never has someone with so little ability gone so far in the NFL.....Can you tell I still cannot stand the guy. Never could....If Al Davis hires this guy then it is because he does not want a coach, he wants a marionette.....

I said before, being on this team is like being in purgatory. They are not going to have great choices in coaches. Might as well give him a shot.

What is he desperate?

Jim Fassel must have a death wish.

It's a job and a chance to get your name back out there. If he goes say 6-10 or 7-9, that would look great on his resume.

Can you say pimping aint easy!!

This guy has been pimping his services since my beloved big blue let him go....

He's desperate! Hey, Mr. Davis, I am available too!

That's why he's grasping at straws and showing interest in being a coach at Oakland despite knowing full well what goes on there. He's so dead set on being a HC again he doesn't care. He'd be better off going to the college ranks and making some easy money working with kids who'd barely have the guts to go against his gameplan. No AD would question his moves, but Fassel is a fossil. Sad to say.

I got a great idea for a new reality TV show. Called Raider Coach. Watch a bunch of grown men lose their dignity trying to coach for Al Davis. The show can end everyweek with those immortal words............."You're Fired".

I'm available too ...

Fassel is really puckering up... digusting.

LOL.

couldn't have said it better myself-

How f'n desperate must you be if you are looking to
a Raider position to get you back on your feet

He is probably the only person alive who wants the job.

Other than Al of course.

Actually I think the coach on the other sideline that day is the worst coach to ever have a team in the Super Bowl. Tiki and the boys tried to run the locker room on Coughlin, and probably did for a bit. Winning cures most problems

Its too bad that he has to go and beg for the Raiders job. I know 50-year can't stand him, but I always liked Fassel, especially when he "put the cards down, this team is going to the playoffs". He was a class act in New York. Its too bad that selfish jerks like Tiki, Shockey and (yes) Strahan pulled the rug out from under him. Good luck to him, but perhaps his best luck would mean that he doesn't get this job.
