No Charges To Be Filed Against Tom Cable

The Napa County DA just announced that Raiders coach Tom Cable will not be prosecuted for any crimes as a result of a "tussle" that broke the jaw of assistant Randy Hanson.

The DA explained that Cable merely bumped into Hanson's chair knocking him over and that's how he got hurt. "Technically" it might have been battery, but basically there was no way they would get a conviction due to conflicting accounts and Hanson's initial reluctance to report it as a crime. There may still be a civil suit, but it looks like Tom Cable will not be fired for his uncontrollable rage—but for the crapstastic state of his football team. As it should be.
