I heard that too, Max…(Garrett fired him while he was getting off the PLANE???)
If that is true…couldn’t he have waited until Monday morning in the office or something? (Maybe he tweeted him first or something…?)

To give you an idea of how bad Garrett is, he fired my old coach John Robinson by leaving a message on his answering machine, and he called me by another player’s name when presenting me with an award back in high school. The piece of shit recruited me.
One of the NFL’s premier Franchises (Da’ RAID-uhs!)

Huh?[/quote]
My reaction as well. The Raiders haven’t been a premier franchise in anyone’s eyes but their own for about 25 years. They’re actually one of the most pathetic franchises in all of the major professional sports and the type of organization that no one in their right mind tries to model their own after.
Goes to show you not to go by everything you read…and why I’ve always asked you, Push, to say and ask what you mean! (You would think I would have learned by now, right?)
So…any thoughts on Kiffin? Terrible or not…he STILL got a job as a Head Coach on an NFL Team and 2 Division-1 Football Teams.

Kiffin was fired in a pretty shitty way from what I heard from insiders at the school. In fact, it was downright gangster how he got fired.

Not a fan of him at all. But to be fair. .he was several scholarship s down from the sanctions. Playing w. 55 scholarship players vs. 85 has to have an adverse effect…and significantly lower the ceiling.

The plane landed at LAX, and the team boarded the bus to go back to the campus. Before the bus left the airport, Kiffin was asked by USC big-wigs to get off the bus. Kiffin got off the bus and told the bus driver to wait. Kiffin got off the bus and USC officials waved the bus driver to leave, and so the bus left. Kiffin was then told he was done, and was left at the airport to manage his own ride home. Pretty fucked up to get fired at the airport upon your return.
So the game ended in Tempe at 10:30pm, figure the flight to come back to LA leaves at 12-12:30, lands in LA at 1-1:30, and dude got canned in the middle of the night.
