Haslanekiffinbeenfired.com popped up a few weeks ago when the back and forth "you will/won't get fired" mental duel Saw 1,2,3,4,5, also known as Raiders owner Al Davis had going on in his head regarding his "beloved" coach Lane Kiffin.

And so go the Saints in 2008: Injuries and blown chances. Sounds a lot like a poor [image] man’s version of the Raiders. Oakland’s version of turmoil off the field has made any negative plays on it appear mild. Prior to their bye week, they surrendered 25 fourth ...
