Al Davis, sadly, may not live to 120

[Skyy God]

A certain amount of wailing and tearing of garments is appropriate.

There were unsubstantiated reports this week that Raiders owner Al Davis was in declining health and had been in the hospital. The Raiders denied this.

"Al Davis is fine," Raiders senior executive John Herrera said. "He's [in Alameda] preparing for the draft. He's working as he always has. Any rumors circulating about his health are untrue."

We wanted to pair this statement with a terrifying photo from Davis's last public appearance, at a Jan. 18 press conference, to quietly point out that there is no way it is true, but then we realized how many news outlets in the country had already made that effort.

He is already dead

[pr_capone]

That wrinkly old bastard died in '76. The deal he made with the Devil back then on his deathbed is what has allowed him to continue "living" on to today.

I believe he is actually possessed by a succubus who has been masquerading as Al for decades now.

[boogblaster]

Al knows the reaper very well ...

[DMAC]

He looks dead.

[Rain Man]

I sure hope he pulls through. We need him in our division.

[ReynardMuldrake]

So if he dies... how will they tell the difference?

[blaise]

Isn't his mother still alive?

[ClevelandBronco]

Isn't his mother still alive?

I think she's undead, but I'm not sure if that's the same thing exactly.

[Skyy God]

I sure hope he pulls through. We need him in our division.

I, for one, would be willing to donate whatever stem cells are needed for Al to pull through.

Saying Al "Imhotep" Davis is in declining health is like saying Kirstie Alley has been gaining weight lately. He's been in "declining health" for around 30 years now.

I think he was bitten.

[okiedokieokoye]

Has anyone made a joke about him being dead already?

If you're too fucking lazy to scroll up and read the massive 13 posts before this, you don't deserve to know.

[okiedokieokoye]

If you're too ****ing lazy to scroll up and read the massive 13 posts before this, you don't deserve to know.

Yeah...cause I was being serious.

[JD10367]

Yeah...cause I was being serious.

So you're lazy AND not funny. Good combo.

[okiedokieokoye]

So you're lazy AND not funny. Good combo.

Once again...not lazy...just a joke. I know this is a complicated thing for you to figure out.

[Quesadilla Joe]

Quit quoting that douche.

[talastan]

The only good thing that would come from Al passing would be if he had a clause in his will that the Raider's organization be buried with him, ala Egyptian Pharoah style.

Al wishes he looked that good.

[veist]

Al Davis is just progressing to the next stage of his undeath, from lich to demilich. Pretty soon he's just going to be a skull floating around and ruining the Raiders.

[Sofa King]

This should probably have been a prayer/best wishes/get well soon thread.

[Dave Lane]

I'll even pray if it helps. Al must be saved!!

[pr_capone]

I'll even pray if it helps. Al must be saved!!

That will have the same effect as sprinkling holy water on someone who is possessed.

[ChiTown]

Al wishes he looked that good.

He did............in the 60's.

[BossChief]

So if he dies... how will they tell the difference?

People will look into his casket and be like "he actually looks like he is getting better."

[crazycoffey]

NFL Spin doctors, so wrapped up in the draft even a little thing like Al being sick isn't going to be used against them during the draft...

People will look into his casket and be like "he actually looks like he is getting better."

[BossChief]

I'm glad someone picked up on that

[crazycoffey]

out of boredom I made the wife watch it the other day, she didn't get the humor.... sigh, this younger generation....

[Skyy God]

When it's confirmed that he's in the hospital, absolutely.
