But the Raiders wisely were coy, resisting making the first move — and as a result pilfering him from Pittsburgh.

Boy, that makes us look like idiots.

Like I said at the time, the minute you sabotage the trade we made at your request - no trade for you. I am not picking up the phone, you are on your fucking own. Can't believe we would be so sickeningly obsequious. I mean, at that point, even if you know he's going to go mental and get suspended or thrown in jail, he can do that as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers and get us some of our cap space back.
