maybe staying after all?

From Profootballtalk.com....

RAIDERS TO KEEP SHELL TO SPITE SCHEFTER?

One of the theories making the rounds in league circles of late is that, if Raiders owner Al Davis had intended to fire coach Art Shell after the season, Davis might ultimately choose to keep Shell around -- merely in order to spite Adam Schefter of NFL Network, who reported on Thursday that Shell will be dumped.

It would be stupid, illogical, and nonsensical. But it would be classic Al Davis.

The Raiders think that Schefter, a former Broncos beat writer, is getting his information and/or marching orders from the franchise he previously covered. Davis and company promptly issued a pointed and biting statement calling out Schefter's report.

On Sunday, FOX's Howie Long (a former Raider) and Joe Buck (a current weenie) took some shots at Schefter on the air. Long called the information "third-hand," and Buck said, "Who's Adam Schefter?" -- a comment that reveals more about Buck's attention to league-related details than Buck might want the hardcore NFL fan to know.

Our guess? Shell isn't going anywhere. If for no reason other than that Davis will want Schefter to look foolish for reporting that Shell was done.

he wouldn't do that... if he's planning on firing Shell he's going to do it.

Consider the source.

Pure speculation.

SCHEFTER is a NOBODY, he would only do this to someone powerful, not some 2nd rate commentator, or analyst.

IMO Davis was never just going to outright can Shell...He's been to loyal...Al will find a place within the organization for Shell...He'll just be reassigned and Al will spin it so it won't look so bad for Art...That way everyone saves face....JMHO......

This would be the most idiotic move ever. Keep the lame duck coach becuse someone specualted he would be fired WTF? Shell is and should be gone at the end of the season for messing this team up.

Well i told you they are more worried about doing it their way than winning. I can imagine what the 2007 season will be like. We will never do nothing as long as Al is making stupid descisions and doing stuff out of spite. This orginazation doesnt want to win and they prove it year after year.We will be the worst and most pathetic team 5 in a row.
