Raiders Owner Mark Davis Is A Hooters Man

Mark Davis and the Raiders went to Hooters before making a coaching hire and when you really think about it, that's the least surprising Raiders news there is.

Never hire a new Head Coach on an empty stomach. Thanks @RAIDERS for stopping by. Just Wing, baby! pic.twitter.com/Wv7vyzopti

Where to begin? Let's start with "Never hire a new Head Coach on an empty stomach." Does that mean Mark Davis went to Hooters before hiring Jack Del Rio? Seems to be a reasonable reading of the tweet. So, we will assume that the Raiders went to Hooters before hiring Del Rio, and we will further assume that the Hooters Twitter account is not lying about Mark Davis and Co. going to Hooters before hiring a head football coach. Why would Hooters lie about that? Makes no sense. When given the choice between the Raiders brain trust going to Hooters before hiring a coach, and Hooters making up that story, the correct response is obviously "Yeah, the Raiders totally did that."

We also have to talk about the owner of the Oakland Raiders looking like a methed out Prince Valiant. OK, so, Mark Davis looks like a methed out Prince Valiant. I don't really have more on that point.

And finally: Hooters? Come on, man. Mark Davis owns a business that prints money and he goes to Hooters to eat? Is he secretly Michael Scott? Actually that's starting to make a whole lot of sense to me now. In fact, everything about this makes a whole lot of sense. Godspeed, Jack Del Rio.
