Raiders coach Tom "I'm Going To Kill You" Cable is out. "The Raiders announced their decision not to exercise a two-year, $5 million option on Cable's contract for 2011 and '12, two days after wrapping up an 8-8 season that gave Oakland its first non-losing record since winning the 2002 AFC championship," reports AP (via KTVU). Cable, if you recall, was accused in 2009 of kicking, choking and threatening the life of former assistant coach Randy Hanson. [KTVU] more ›
