Fassel denies speaking with Raiders
Former New York Giants coach Jim Fassel said Tuesday that he hasn't spoken with Raiders managing general partner Al Davis in recent days and that his name being linked to the Raiders coaching job is pure speculation. "No, we haven't had any conversations," Fassel said in an interview on SIRIUS NFL Radio, "and the thing is, some of the things got blown out of proportion." ESPN reported Sunday that Fassel sent a letter to Davis expressing his desire to replace current Raiders coach Tom Cable next season.

Davis wants to make sure you know how to grovel, before he thinks about making an offer.

Until Davis is gone the Raiders will be the epitome of suck. I don't care who the coach is.

Davis is a joke and runs things like it is the 70's again. The only way for the raiders to be decent again is to get rid of davis
