Tim Brown Still Wants to Work for the Raiders

Tim Brown Still Wants to Work for the Raiders

"you can't go in there with your head down asking, 'Mr. Davis, you mind if I...," you know? You've got to go in there like a man and know what you're talking about and tell him what you're going to do. And he will - it's not going to come easy, he's going to fight you on every hand - but he will eventually allow you to have some say so."

Where is that man that can go in there and butt heads but keep things running? Get him there asap.
