Finebaum Ripped Into Kiffin

In case you missed it, Paul Finebaum tore into Lane Kiffin on Wednesday. My favorite paragraph:
Since arriving at Tennessee in December, Kiffin has gone on a spending spree that rivals the recent government bailout of Wall Street. He's been hoarding assistant coaches, making unprofessional comments about other schools, and, in the process, is well on his way to becoming public enemy No. 1 in the SEC without having coached a game.
The funniest part is that Finebaum says Lane Kiffin is such a nut that he's basically on the path to vindicating Al Davis' rant about Kiffin. After terminating Kiffin, Davis called him immature and a "flat out liar." Per Finebaum:
[Davis'] behavior at the news conference, which was carried live on ESPN, came off more like a You Tube video of the Unabomber than the man who owns an NFL franchise and has three Super Bowl trophies.

" I just couldn't go on much longer with what I would call the propaganda, the lying that had been going on for weeks and months," Davis said.

Most concluded a straight jacket was the only solution to Davis' problems.
Now...not so much per Finebaum. Here are some highlights from the Davis conference.
