Spear Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 I think every owner in the league except for Al Davis is exactly as Turner's "salvo" described. Hell, JKC didn't know football, either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nace14 Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 you can't blame the guy (turner) for taking his shots now that he can, he got laid off in the middle of the season, everyone who get's laid off will knock the guy who fired. i actually thought he could have been a lot worse.

fwo40 Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Norv thinks he had it bad here....wait til he has to manage mid 30 year olds on the downsides of their careers...who play sometimes like they're about ready to drop dead and who act like they just came out of the womb. Oakland needs a displinary for all that "talent"...Norv is too nice...he will get eaten alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Turner may be nice, but Davis is not. He could have stepped in to aid Callahan, but he didn't. I expect he has laid down the law (or will) to players that he thinks can hurt the team with their attitude. He doesn't mind attitude as long as it doesn't HURT the Raiders. But if it does, I expect he will brutally handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarb Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 Most of Turner's less than stellar tenure was NOT under Dan Snyder. So Norv, just STFU. You're a mediocre coach, but you'd probably make an excellent country club manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
