    Why the HECK is Cable gone?

    Davis just gets dumber and dumber.

    And dumberer.

    In the long term, this is probably a blessing in disguise with Cable.

    Because Al Davis is a senile old man...

    If you wanted to fire Cable because of his anger management issues, you could have done that a year or two ago.

    To fire him after they go 6-0 in their division and seem to have finally turned the corner after years of wandering in the wilderness is just plain stupid.

    Cable will be better off. Can't see the Raiders going anywhere for a long time.

    Al Davis made a bad decision here. He took a step backwards instead of forwards. He would have had them in the playoffs next season.

    That team was finally looking good crushing the Chiefs in the last game of the season even though they were out of the playoffs. So lets fire the coach.

    dont see why this is so stupid???? was tom cable really that great a coach that you cant afford to lose him? the new guy will have plenty of time to get used to and prepare the team for the 2011 season.

    Davis probably wants to bring back Art Shell one more time. Don't know what went on there with Cable but this team finally had respect again. Now they will start all over again. Nobody can ever accuse Al Davis of doing the right thing.

    Maybe Davis thinks another coach can go better than 6-0 in the division.

    why not fire him? he started out punching his own staff and hasn't made the playoffs once. 6-0 in the division means nothing if you don't make the playoffs. You can talk about being undefeated in the division all you want but at the end of the day what does that really mean? jackshit

    Because Cable benched Jason Campbell, the QB that Davis hand picked after 6 quarters. Bottom line.

    It doesn't mean anything if you think they're a playoff calibre team, I don't.

    He should have been let go when he assaulted the fellow employee.

    Classic example of a business owner who is hard-headed, and late to the party. Now, when he fires him, it looks worse than if he just got rid of him when he had the incident.

    Because Davis is the smartest man on earth... He figured out if you have a Iosing record you get better draft picks, and CabIe went .500

    Ridiculous move. Team was finally headed in right direction. It takes time to build a program. Every coaching change means it'll take longer.

    He was taking the Raiders into a winning direction so Al Davis had to put a stop to it.

    The better question is... has Davis ever done anything right?
