You gotta a problem with Lance, er, Lane Kiffin?
Al Davis has thongs older then Lane Kiffin. Not that we know for sure. Just gotta assume.
The highlighs of Tuesday's press conference, where the Raiders general managing partner (or whatever he's calling himself these days) introduced the 31-year-old former USC offensive coordinator as his new head coach are already all over the radio waves. Kiffin's robotic soundbites had San Jose Mercury writer John Ryan wondering if there wasn't a future endorsement in WD-40.
But the key may have been when Davis slipped and called him "Lance." Or, when he mentioned he was a former USC assistant coach "30 some years ago in 1959 ..."
It's been a long process, finding someone with an IQ small enough to take over this Dunder Mifflin of the NFL franchise. We understand how exhausted Al must be at this point. He's just glad he's still living and breathing without the help of an oxygen tank.
What kind of future does Kiffin have with the Raider Nation?
"Coaching the Raiders isnt going to be an uphill battle for Kiffin, it's an up-cliff battle," said Petros Papadakis on Tuesday's "PMS" show on AM-570.
If only Lance, er, Lane could just play video games like he did as the character in "The 40-Year-Old Virgin."
