    Report is that he's waived DeAngelo Hall ($8M for 8 games) and likely Javon Walker ($16M). http://blogs.mercurynews.com/kawakami/2008/11/04/raiders-dump-hall-maybe-walker-too-oh-man-al-must-be-mad-at-the-guy-who-signed-them/#comment-130356 Wow. Hard to come up with anyone else who has made such quick decisions and swallowed such a pain pill.

    The Raiders are horrible (obviously) but maybe they are finally making a small move in the right direction.

    Wow. That was an interesting blog entry.

    Then again, I've never read Kawakami's stuff before.

    I'm sad as someone who loved DeAngelo Hall. Unless he goes to a team I like better. :D

    Trey, Tim was involved in a very public, um, thing with a Davis flunkie at a presser.

    I don't think the Raiders are too keen on him. :D

    I want to know which team will pick up Hall. He has the talent to be one of the best corners in the league.

    Kawakami does a great job.

    Does this mean he is no longer an animatronics?

    I think the only question is if a team with a worse record will put in a claim... If not, Hall will be a Cowboy.

    Hall has been abused this year. He either gets burned deep or sits 10 yards off the wr. The other corner, Asomugha has talent and can cover. Hall is full of shit.

    Of late, it's been more like malpractice.
